Molecular Fitness: The Connexin Connection to Optimal Health

This book is straightforward and explains in easily understandable terms and illustrations Dr. Tanelian's research and conclusions. It's a good starting point for anyone interested in studying further what makes the human body tick. As do others in the field of nutrition, dietetics, sports therapies and anti-aging, Dr. Tanelian encourages the use of dietary supplements (based on his own research and formulations) which can be purchased on the Molecular Connexin website. The book also promotes a high-fiber diet full of unprocessed foods. I'm happy with my purchase, and I'm glad I didn't pay full cover price for the book, which sometimes veers into infomercial territory. I would be very interested to read results of clinical studies involving the connexin molecule and how its status affects systems within the human body.

"I have read many health related books over the years and was absolutely fascinated with the concepts Dr. Tanelian presents in the Molecular Fitness. This is one of the most scientific and thoroughly documented books out there. Just read the bio on this guy! He is unbelievably well researched. This book presents breakthrough scientific explanations for wellness and disease prevention for anyone at any age. This is the first time I have read about the Connexin molecule and the role it plays in disease and wellness. Though I am only in my thirties, I have already lost several friends to cancer and one recently experienced a stroke. The idea that we can do something to reduce the risks of getting cancer and many other common diseases is comforting. It is not just about eating healthy foods but including a balance of specific foods to keep our Connexin molecules in a certain state. The Molecular Fitnesslifestyle presented in this book is fascinating and empowering yet easy to follow. I recommend it to anyone wanting to know more about achieving optimum health and living long and well." T. Resin, Manhattan Beach, CA.
