Vital Energy

Vicki Edgson is one of the UK's leading nutritionists and the author of several books, including (as co-author) Diet Doctors - a TV tie-in published by Vermillion in 2006 and the bestselling Honestly Healthy, which attracted a wealth of endorsements from both health professionals and celebrities. Now, in her new book, Vital Energy, Vicki tackles one of the most common and most worrying issues facing many people today, a chronic lack of energy and sense of wellbeing. At her clinic, Vicki invites new patients to share their health problems and emotional issues, and all too often the answers she gets feature conditions such as fatigue, insomnia, anxiety and chronic stress. Almost inevitably, this leads her to ask one important question: 'Do you feel you are thriving, or merely surviving?' Getting to the bottom of what really causes such fatigue and lack of well being is essential if we are to make lasting changes that will improve our health and our lives.And because time is the one thing we seem to struggle with these days, in her book Vicki will include an essential Fourteen-Day Vital Energy Plan which promises to banish bad habits, boost our energy levels and radically improve the way we look. Two weeks is all it takes to show how quickly your body responds when it is provided with what it needs.
