Donna Gates - The Body Ecology Guide To Growing Younger: Anti-Aging Wisdom for Every Generation

Praise for The Body Ecology Guide to Growing Younger

A few years ago I attended a weeklong workshop with Donna Gates. It was an eye-opening experience, as she shared simple but powerful principles for attaining and maintaining a superhealthy body. One of the most important things in the workshop was thatDonna fed us breakfast and lunch. We were able to taste and experience how delicious the fermented foods were. Everyone enjoyed her way of cooking and was delighted to take her recipes and probiotic nutrition home with them. I have been a follower ever since, and at 84 am enjoying vibrant health. Thank you, Donna Gates.

This book is dedicated to my delightful, charming, and very wise granddaughter, Mia, and to the billions of children who will be born generations from now. You inspire me to do the work I do and motivate me to want to live a long, healthy life and be here to see the amazing world you will create upon this earth.

My prayer is that this book will spark the baby-boomer generation and our children, your parents, into action and create for you an opportunity to inherit strong physical bodies and brilliant minds that are in harmony with your already-radiant souls.
