| Edita Kaye approached her 50th birthday with dismay. She had tried every diet (many twice)， and couldn t shake herself down from a size 16 ("on a good day and a lousy scale"). Obsessed with extra pounds， wrinkles and jowls， Kaye decided to give up on weight loss and use her background as a medical reporter to investigate anti-aging techniques. She discovered the "fountain of youth": antioxidants. Amazingly， this secret to staying youthful also resulted in weight loss. In one year Kaye lost 20 pounds and "10 years" off her appearance. Her magic formula is actually a sensible， low-fat eating plan high in the antioxidant nutrients--vitamins E and C， beta-carotene， and calcium. Kaye s experience and this-is-your-girlfriend-telling-you style are motivating and meant to inspire you to make a change. She tells her personal story and discusses aging theories in a jaunty style. Free radicals are like a "stag line at the cellular prom"; antioxidants are the "cellular cops...a free radical swat team." The book explains the benefits and sources of each of the antioxidant nutrients， then presents three months of antioxidant-rich menus and 100 easy recipes. --Joan Price |
