Lose Size & Energise - Heidi Di Santo

At age 25, Heidi was a highly successful, corporate high flyer. There was just one problem. She had burned herself out and was officially diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome. Told there was no remedy, Heidi embarked on a personal journey to get well and regain her lost energy.

By questioning our modern way of life and finding a more natural way to live, Heidi regained her lost energy and overcame her lifelong struggle with chronic eczema, allergies and asthma.

Heidi has written this book because she is so passionate about helping others in similar circumstances to take control of their health. Her personal battle involved a complete lifestyle change which she shares with you in this book.

It is broken down into the following 4 sections:
•Eating for optimal health and energy
•Living for optimal health and energy
•Exercising for optimal health and energy
•Putting it into Practice – The 12 Week Challenge!
