Forsøget varede i alt 8 uger, og der blev målt stærkt nedsat udmattelse (fatigue), depression, mental ubalance, vrede og konfusion (forvirring) hos dem, der fik rosenrod. Der var desuden en reduceret stressreaktion, og deltagerne angav, at deres humør blev markant bedre.I et andet 12-ugers forsøg opnåede deltagerne markante forbedringer allerede i den første uge, idet rosenrod udløste en stærk reduktion af træthed, koncentrationsbesvær, livslede, irritabilitet, angst, hjælpeløshed, udmattelse og fysiske symptomer (svaghed i kroppen, ubehag eller anspændthed i musklerne). Virkningen blev ved med at øges, i takt med de 12 uger skred fremad.Om forfatterenMilena Penkowa er hjerneekspert, cand.med. og ph.d. i hjernevidenskab fra Københavns Universitet.

Lægen er klar i spyttet, da Karina efter længere tids smerter i kroppen søger svar på sine symptomer. Den 35-årige mor til to har arvet samme bindevævsygdom, som langsomt tog hendes egen mor fra hende i en alt for tidlig alder. Den livsændrende dom tvinger hende til at lægge en ny plan for livet – Plan B, som går ud på at skabe så mange gode minder sammen med familien som muligt, inden sygdommen overtager hendes liv. Med sejlbåden Evy tager Karina og hendes familie på en jordomsejling, der skal ændre alt. Plan B er den virkelige historie om 1000 dages eventyr, som fører den danske familie gennem troperne, til møder med indfødte stammefolk og lander dem midt i en kartelkrig i de mexicanske gader. Undervejs må de lære at overgive sig til det uventede, kæmpe med overvejelserne om at give op og rejse hjem, ligesom de må indse, at turen til paradis langt fra altid kan gå efter planen.

Kom med ind i en brutal verden bag tremmer, hvor død, vold og trusler forfølger de ansatte. Også når de går hjem.Firhjulstrækkeren i bakspejlet kom nærmere og lagde sig ud i overhalingsbanen på motorvejen. En ung, mørkklædt mand foldede sin hånd som en pistol og kiggede direkte på Ali. Beskeden var ikke til at tage fejl af. Mohammed Ali blev en del af en rå verden, da han begyndte som fængselsbetjent i det bandeplagede Nyborg Fængsel. Blodige konflikter fra gaden blev slæbt med ind bag murene, hvor den afstumpede vold rystede den tidligere elitebokser. Bag lås og slå regerer de stærke, og de svage bliver udnyttet og forsømt. Hverdagen blev også en kamp mellem indsatte og ansatte om, hvem der styrede fængslet. Der blev knyttet tætte bånd mellem fængselsbetjentene, men der var også kollegaer, der ikke fulgte spillets regler. Jo længere tid der gik, desto sværere fik Ali selv ved at kende forskel på rigtigt og forkert. Til sidst endte vold og trusler med at forfølge Ali udenfor fængslets mure og kaste lange skygger over hans liv. Det her er historien om bandefængslet indefra.

Denne bog er en hyldest til det at blive ældre. Målet er at inspirere andre til at tænke over, hvordan de gerne vil leve deres liv, turde mere og aldrig lade sig kue af, hvad andre mener, kvinder kan - eller ikke kan - når de nærmer sig eller for længst har passeret de 50 år.Den er også en protest mod et ungdomsforherligende samfundssyn, og så er den Line Baun Danielsens personlige fortælling om at begynde forfra, forfølge sine drømme og ikke mindst holde sig mentalt og fysisk skarp hele vejen til kisten.

"We are not all super athletes, but we all perform in one way or another, every single day. Whether we're training for a marathon, smashing that big presentation, or chasing after kids, we need energy and focus for a healthy mind and body. To be our best, we need to feel our best, and what we eat makes the difference. Dan Churchill, The Healthy Chef, has spent more than a decade coaching high performers--everyone from professional hockey greats to famously fit celebrities like Chris Hemsworth or Lindsay Vonn to 100-mile runners-to be "legendary eaters." Churchill's philosophy and methods are simple--ditch the complicated science of performance nutrition and focus on five fundamental values: Eat good. Eat easy. Eat more. Eat deliberately. Eat special. Written in his fun and friendly voice, Eat Like a Legend provides recipes for food you can actually cook--food that's packed with fiber, nutrients, and other good stuff calibrated to enhance focus, determination, gut health, muscle mass, and endurance, no matter what you do. In this lifestyle cookbook, Churchill gathers the best of the best food with simple, step-by-step instructions--the tastiest dishes in his repertoire that will provide the energy you need to perform in your daily life, including: acai bowls (that are actually good for you), chicken alfredo you can eat every day, crispy sticky salmon on sesame greens, one-skillet apple pie, sexy tofu scramble with avo-dill salsa, legendary baked ziti with a kale pesto, game-day (and work-day) shrimp tikka masala, pad thai in a flash with sunny-side up eggs, gooiest brownies ever (you'll never guess how). All of these recipes go from pantry and fridge to plate quickly and Churchill includes tips for when to eat them relative to exercise for optimum health. Many of the recipes are interactive, featuring a QR code which can be scanned to instantly drop you into his studio kitchen, where he prepares the meal at hand and answers common questions about the ingredients and cooking method. Featuring dozens of full color photographs, Eat Like a Legend is balanced, delicious, accessible nutrition for everyone"--

Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing. Her name is Wild Woman, but she is an endangered species. Though the gifts of wildish nature come to us at birth, society's attempt to "civilize" us into rigid roles has plundered this treasure, and muffled the deep, life-giving messages of our own souls. Without Wild Woman, we become over-domesticated, fearful, uncreative, trapped. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Ph.D., Jungian analyst and cantadora storyteller, shows how woman's vitality can be restored through what she calls "psychic archeological digs" into the bins of the female unconscious. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes uses multicultural myths, fairy tales, folk tales, and stories chosen from over twenty years of research that help women reconnect with the healthy, instinctual, visionary attributes of the Wild Woman archetype. Dr. Estes collects the bones of many stories, looking for the archetypal motifs that set a woman's inner life into motion. "La Loba" teaches about the transformative function of the psyche. In "Bluebeard", we learn what to do with wounds that will not heal; in "Skeleton Woman", we glimpse the mystical power of relationship and how dead feelings can be revived; "Vasalisa the Wise" brings our lost womanly instincts to the surface again; "The Handless Maiden" recovers the Wild Woman initiation rites; and "The Little Match Girl" warns against the insidious dangers of a life spent in fantasy. In these and other stories, we focus on the many qualities of Wild Woman. We retrieve, examine, love, and understand her, and hold her against our deep psyches as one whois both magic and medicine. In Women Who Run with the Wolves, Dr. Estes has created a new lexicon for describing the female psyche. Fertile and lifegiving, it is a psychology of women in the truest sense, a knowing of the soul.

Maisie Hill turns her attention to our stress hormones and nervous system - and how women can revolutionise the way in which they interact with the world to harness our inner power and live our best lives. How we're wired has a lot to do with why we worry about the same things. We need to stop beating ourselves up and find the tools to thrive. Are you a habitual people-pleaser that leaves you feeling resentful and pissed off - with them and yourself? Do you lose all your time and energy because you're unable to say ?no'? Do you struggle to express your feelings, needs and desires - experiencing an irritability and rage that's eroding your career and relationships? Maybe you're struggling to do things that will make a difference to your health, such as over-drinking, over/under-exercising, and dietary and other lifestyle changes. Sound familiar? Then this is your chance to deal with that beautiful brain of yours. Starting now. It's time to do things differently. Find a new way to feel connected to your cycle and the wisdom of your body. Become full of emotional resilience so you can stop holding back and crack on with your life. And more than anything, become that person who ? calmly and unapologetically ? makes herself and the things you need a priority in your life. And who listens the inner whisper that brought you to this book for no other reason that you know?deep down?how important it is. Maisie shows us the simple and effective ways to get unstuck and change things with wise words and case studies from her own coaching practice, tried and tested on women who have struggled with the same issues. It's the essential guide to how to be human.

Sat's obsession for more than three decades of being a chef has been big, bold flavor, and that's not something he's prepared to sacrifice to ensure his food is also heart healthy. He still enjoys the odd steak and glass of red wine - since we all, occasionally, need to treat ourselves - but it's always in moderation. His diet focuses on lean protein and a mix of legumes, good fats - such as avocado, nuts and olive oil - vegetables and fruits, as well as seasonings that will help elevate any dish. The recipes are designed for every day, use ingredients that can be bought from any supermarket and are accompanied by advice written by nutritionist Dr Neil Williams highlighting the ingredients that are rich in the vitamins and minerals that aid heart health.

Var en af de sidste bøger, Andreas Moritz, den tysk-amerikanske ayurvedisk uddannede læge nåede at skrive. Her afslører han, hvorledes alliancen mellem medicinalindustri og sundhedssektoren på mange måder er en uhellig alliance.At solen, kilden til alt liv på jorden, skulle være vores fjende, er blevet en af vor tids unaturlige og farlige myter.Den virkelige trussel mod vores helbred er tværtimod, som Moritz viser, de mange former for solbeskyttelsescreme, vi rådes til at bruge, når vi vil følge vores naturlige trang til at opholde os i solen og lade os opbygge.Moritz redegør kort og klart for, hvorledes det ultraviolette lys fra solen kan være kræftforebyggende, og oven i købet kan bidrage til at kurere hudkræft. Og omvendt påviser han, at hudkræft kan forårsages af solbeskyttelse, ligesom han henviser til undersøgelser, der dokumenterer, at kvinder der får for lidt sollys er udsatte og risikerer uregelmæssigheder med menstruation.Hans ærinde med den lille, men vægtige bog er at lære, hvorledes vi skal omgås sollyset, så vi får et sundere og sandere forhold til solen og kan udnytte vores naturlige adgang til dens helbredende kræfter.

Open your mind, look after your body'A few years ago, I was driving home from a busy day in clinic when I realised something: most of my patients were not getting better. I was tinkering with their medications to ease symptoms ... but had I actually helped anyone that day? I'd never felt so powerless.Since then, I have studied nutrition, psychotherapy and a wide range of holistic healing approaches. I have studied research papers from all over the world, tested ideas on myself, asked my patients to try additional treatments, and I've seen wonderful results.I believe in a 'whole-body' approach - treating my patient's physical , mental and emotional health - mind, body and spirit. Headaches, back pain, IBS, anxiety ... the long list of chronic illness is on the rise. I've never seen so many younger patients struggling. But I've also seen what makes people well:Six health habits. Simple daily actions. An open-minded approach, grounded in evidence.Everything in this book is free. This is truly accessible healthcare for everyone.

Overcome fatigue, brain fog and anxiety, and gain energy, clarity and peace of mind with Dr Izabella Wentz, internationally acclaimed thyroid specialist and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller, Hashimoto's Protocol.What were you doing in your life before you got sick? This is a common question Dr Izabella Wentz asks her clients when trying to get to the root cause of symptoms such as low energy, sleeplessness, caffeine dependency and poor memory.

In Adrenal Transformation Protocol, Dr Wentz tackles adrenal dysfunction, the body's inability to produce essential hormones when it mismanages stress, and shows that by making a few small dietary and lifestyle changes, you can see profound improvement within weeks.In this simple four-week programme, Dr Wentz will help you identify your adrenal triggers, balance your stress response and build up resilience to prevent stress from overwhelming your adrenals in future.
