Titles in this set: 1. Eat to Beat Disease 2. Eat to Beat Your Diet Description: Eat to Beat Disease: In Eat to Beat Disease, Dr William Li explains that your body was designed to fight threats like these and we have radically underestimated how food can be used to amplify this hidden power. Your body has five natural defence systems that, if functioning well, can protect you: angiogenesis (growing new blood vessels), cell regeneration, the microbiome, DNA protection and immunity. The healthy working of each has been found to be intimately connected to the foods we eat – and the findings are sometimes surprising. Discover:· Why scientists think drinking hot cocoa boosts stem cells crucial for your body's regeneration· The role of cheese and wine in maintaining healthy gut bacteria· Why drinking coffee lowers your risk of dying. Eat to Beat Your Diet: Dr William Li's first book, Eat to Beat Disease, showed us how eating the right foods can reduce the risk of chronic diseases, while also extending our lifespan and improving our overall health. Building on this groundbreaking work, Dr Li now brings us Eat to Beat Your Diet, a revolutionary, science-based approach to weight loss. Eating more of the right foods and adopting a "MediterAsian" diet (combining the best of Mediterranean and Asian diets) can promote fat loss and improve our metabolism in as little as 21 days. Rooted in new science, Eat to Beat Your Diet offers a simple plan providing leading research on how supplements, sleep and exercise can help us defend the body against excess fat.

Titles In This Set : Lilith's Brood Trilogy Dawn: Lilith's Brood 1 Adulthood Rites: Lilith's Brood 2 Imago: Lilith's Brood 3 The Parable Parable of the Sower Parable of the Talents Description : Dawn When Lilith lyapo wakes in a small white room with no doors or windows, she remembers a devastating war, and a husband and child long lost to her. She finds herself living among the Oankali, a strange race who intervened in the fate of humanity hundreds of years before. They spared those they could from the ruined Earth, and suspended them in a long, deep sleep. Over centuries, the Oankali learned from the past, cured disease and healed the world. Now they want Lilith to lead her people back home. But salvation comes at a price - to restore humanity, it must be changed forever... Adulthood Rites Lilith's son Akin looks like an ordinary child. His family live together on Earth, but not in complete peace. The Oankali saved humanity years before, compelled by the desire to create an extraordinary new race of children. But there are those who resist the Oankali and the salvation they offer. The first of his kind, Akin is more powerful than any other being. He understands the desire to fight for the independence of humanity. He also fears that, if left alone, humanity will destroy itself again. And when young Akin is stolen from Lilith and their hybrid family, he soon faces an impossible choice. But first he must reconcile with his own heritage in a world already torn in two. Imago Jodahs is a child of the Earth and stars, born from the union between humans and the Oankali, who saved humanity from destruction centuries before. But Jodahs is approaching adulthood, a metamorphosis that will take him beyond gender and family, and into a great but dangerous unknown. Frightened and alone, Jodahs must come to terms with this new identity, learn to master lifechanging powers and bring together what's left of humankind - or become the biggest threat to their survival. Parable of the Sower We are coming apart. We're a rope, breaking, a single strand at a time. America is a place of chaos, where violence rules and only the rich and powerful are safe. Lauren Olamina, a young woman with the extraordinary power to feel the pain of others as her own, records everything she sees of this broken world in her journal. Then, one terrible night, everything alters beyond recognition, and Lauren must make her voice heard for the sake of those she loves. Soon, her vision becomes reality and her dreams of a better way to live gain the power to change humanity forever. Parable of the Talents In order for me to understand who I am, I must begin to understand who she was. Asha was born into a broken world. There are many things she needs to know: how her country could embrace a violent, far-right President promising to make America great again, why they turned a blind eye to the suffering - and the truth about her mother. In her journals, Lauren Olamina tells of a great love...

His elaborate plans and attention to detail add glamour to the masterful thief. This series of short stories, written by Maurice Leblanc in 1907, is a superb introduction to the capers of the fictional Lupin, paving the way for the popular books that bear his name. The Confessions of Arsène Lupin Arsène Lupin, the enigmatic gentleman thief, is in the mood to confess! Fathom the mind of this wily figure who hatches the most devious and triumphant schemes, through ten thrilling short stories. Lupin conjures the most artful plots to baffle both the police as well as the rogues, running them in pretty circles. His quick and agile mind often leads him to unravelling situations that confound those in law enforcement. A scoundrel he may be, but Lupin's chivalry and honour have led him to many an adventure in the deliverance of the fairer sex, and in acts of charity and compassion. Arsene Lupin's exploits seem to wear an almost supernatural garb. How does he accomplish them? Is it truly something magical? Or is it merely luck? Or is it the brilliance of an incisive mind with the glitter of steel shavings? The Crystal Stopper It all begins with a botched robbery... And Arsene Lupin, the charismatic gentleman burglar, is propelled down the rabbit hole in search of a crystal stopper.

Lupin finds himself in the vise-like grip of a mindboggling plot, running against time and luck to save those who are at stake. Pitted against a diabolical villain, Lupin seems precariously perched on a slippery slope towards doom. Will Lupin find a way out of this dangerous maze? Or will this exploit spell the end of this nimble thief and adventurer? The Eight Strokes Of The Clock Lurking in the shadows, within reach of every whisper and every riddle, is a mysterious and inscrutable presence! The bold adventurer is on the road once again, seeking to resolve the bewildering machinations of man. On this journey he is not alone, but accompanied by a comely comrade who shares in the excitement, ecstasy and periis of this hazardous road. It all begins with the eight strokes of a clock, and a roposition!
