Book summaryAimed primarily at the parents of teenage girls, this holistic guide to teenage weight control urges parents to recognize the physical and the emotional needs of their daughters rather than simply placing them on a weight management program. The author (a physician who specializes in women's health issues) explains that teenagers must first understand their changing bodies, and particularly the effects of surging hormones, before they can manage their weight in a healthy way. In addition to advocating a physician-supervised personalized diet and exercise plan, Schwartz also explains how natural hormones and supplements can be used to manage energy, mood, and weight loss. A chapter at the book's conclusion addresses the weight management needs of teenage boys. Media reviews"This is an eye-opening book for parents who want to help their teenage daughters explore natural methods of safely managing the weight gain, acne and hormonal changes common to female adolescence." |
