Apples & Pears : The Body Shape Solution for Weight Loss and Wellness
I really enjoyed this book...helped me understand a lot about my body and why women lose weight so differently.

This book has pretty nice information and it is great that it comes in a nice readable book for both professionals and "ordinary people". The problem I have with this is that if you are apple shape the only solution is to loose weight! If you are thin AND apple shape (can not loose weight!), you are doom to have more cardiovascular risk than pear shape women PLUS all the esthetic problems (trouble finding clothes, you are not in the "norm" -most women are pear shape, apple fat distribution is really ugly) so I would love if those professionnals would come one day with a real solution to this problem for women!!!

Excellent information, easy to read and understand. I am a nurse who stays up on current research, and this information is cutting edge evidence based! This book is filled with practical advice for applying the information to improve your health (by reducing your risk factors)Dr. Savard actively promotes patient advocacy and this book gives very clear advice about approaching your doctor about your health concerns, while informing you about what your concerns should be.What I especially love is that she describes the research in terms that the average person can understand which helps the average person make up their own minds on what the research means.

When I first read this book I was all fired up to get started. Then I had another baby. Have not looked at it since. I did add soy to my diet and am keeping my waist below the 35 inches for risk of heart issues. I did not use this to loose weight or to keep it off. I found the facts about body shape very interesting and scary to get my self moving. Those facts were motivators alone and I can say I will not be at risk any more.

Dr. Marie Savard is brilliant. Apples & Pears gives us scientific, proven information on how to live a longer, healthier life. Dr. Savard presents the information in a straightforward, no-nonsense way that makes even the doubters among us say, "I can do this!" Just before I read the book, I was told that I had an extremely high CRP level. Apples & Pears motivated me to take charge, and go for further testing. I am learning to make peace with my apple shape, and have become a faithful follower of The Apple Shape Diet. This book is a must read for all women.

Congratulations to Marie! I bought the book and am devouring it along with Elite foods! She is really at the forefront in this-terrific. I think Oprah would love it too! I highly recommend this book to all women. The plan is beneficial to the whole family as men fall under the "Apple" category
