Book excerpt: Finally someone has gone straight to the real experts: hundreds of men and women who have resolved a drinking problem. The best-selling author Anne M. Fletcher asked them a simple question: how did you do it? The result is the first completely unbiased guide for problem drinkers, one that shatters long-held assumptions about alcohol recovery. Myth: AA is the only way to get sober. Reality: More than half the people Fletcher surveyed recovered without AA. Myth: You can't get sober on your own. Reality: Many people got sober by themselves. Myth: One drink inevitably leads right back to the bottle. Reality: A small number of people find they can have an occasional drink. Myth: There's nothing you can do for someone with a drinking problem until he or she is ready. Reality: Family and friends can make a big difference if they know how to help. Weaving together the success stories of ordinary people and the latest scientific research on the subject, Fletcher uncovers a vital truth: no single path to sobriety is right for every individual. There are many ways to get sober - and stay sober. SOBER FOR GOOD is for anyone who has ever struggled not to drink, coped with someone who has a drinking problem, or secretly wondered, "Do I drink too much?"

More than a diet, it offers a philosophical alternative to the neurosis of our modern food culture based on the dietary traditions of rural Latin America.The science behind Food Sobriety is light and fun, while the recipes and menus provided are easy and inexpensive. What¿s more, while working to improve your health, you will be engaged in a spirited exploration of the intersection of diet, economics, social justice, racism, and exploitation.The Food Sobriety approach was inspired by the author¿s own experiences with weight loss while working in Nicaragua. Nicaragua is the second poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, yet it has obesity rates on a par with the those in the USA. Only a generation ago, Nicaragua had near zero obesity. How this change happened so captivated author Dan Fenyvesi that he left his ordinary life as a dietitian and nutrition professor to spend three years in Nicaragua, including ¿ via a Fulbright Scholar grant ¿ a year teaching at the National University of Nicaragua.In Fenyvesi¿s studies, he found that Nicaraguans who still ate a traditional diet were slim and fit. Adopting elements of both their diet and their refreshing perspective on life, Fenyvesi has since helped hundreds of his North American patients lose weight.

Download or read book Writings on the Sober Life written by and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2014-02-24 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alvise Cornaro (c.1484–1566) was the son of a Paduan innkeeper with presumed ties to the patrician Cornaro family of Venice. Highly ambitious, he acquired a name for himself as a businessman, architect, and patron of the arts. Critically ill around age 40 – likely with diabetes and gout – he resolved to abandon his intemperate lifestyle. The strict rules regarding food and drink that he adopted and which led to his recovery are outlined in his most famous treatise, the Vita Sobria (1558). The work, which featured prescriptions for living to 100 years – stressing healthy lifestyle, proper diet, and avoidance of excess –became an international success. This edition offers the most comprehensive and faithful version of this early modern classic ever available in English, and includes Cornaro’s Aggionta (“Addition”), translated here for the first time. An introductory essay by the late Marisa Milani offers biographical background and analysis and discusses the work’s publication history. The volume also presents letters by Cornaro’s contemporaries commenting on the treatise as well as his Eulogy, now viewed as having been written by Cornaro himself. A foreword by award-winning health journalist Greg Critser speaks to the continuing relevance of Cornaro’s fascinating and seminal work.
