Dubbed a health pioneer by the Wall Street Journal and called “crazy smart” by Dr. Mehmet Oz, Suzanne Somers has repeatedly opened up new terrain to health seekers worldwide. And now, with Bombshell, she does it again. Acting like your personal medical detective, she has found the most advanced scientists, doctors, and health professionals and gotten them to share jaw-dropping advances that will stop deterioration and set you on the path to restoration and healthy longevity.

All of it is yours for the taking if you are willing to make some simple, effective changes.

In Bombshell you will learn about explosive medical secrets utilizing the groundbreaking technologies of today, or the very near future, that will allow us all to truly maintain the fountain of youth, including:
• How nanobots, small “robots” the size of blood cells, will be injected into the human bloodstream to clean the blood supply and literally wipe out today’s most feared diseases
• How stem cell procedures, using one’s own adult stem cells, can be used to prevent disease and even regrow body parts; including how Suzanne’s breast was reconstructed after cancer with no implant in the first clinical trial of its kind in the United States
• How balancing hormones with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy can improve your internal health, well-being, vitality, looks, and sex drive
• How the “cure” to cancer might be just around the corner by preventing it at the source with injections of human, cancer-resistant white blood cells
• How a supplement to regrow telomeres at a cellular level will restore the human body to a younger internal age and reverse signs of aging such as disease, baldness, wrinkles, and loss of hearing and eyesight. And it’s available now!

One after another, she shares the breakthroughs that you can use today to keep you in top shape so you can embrace the near future and all it will have to offer.

I think that book would be great for people as a reference. Its set up in a Q & A format and each chapter is an interview with a doctor on topics from telemere to bioidentical hormones. Its worth a read or atleast to know more information on that topics discussed.

Am cumparat cartea Suzannei Somers, "Revelatii despre imbatranire. Dezvaluiri medicale suprinzatoare, ce redefinesc varsta" acum multi ani si din cand in cand dadeam peste ea in biblioteca si ma gandeam ca nu o voi citi niciodata. Cand am auzit la stiri ca autoarea, pe care o stiu din serialul Step by Step, a murit de cancer, la 77 de ani fara o zi, am luat cartea si am inceput sa citesc din curiozitate, asteptand niste informatii perimate, anul aparitiei fiind 2012. Nu numai ca nu sunt perimate, dar din pacate metodele revolutionare- despre care scria acum 12 ani ca vor fi disponibile pe scara larga in 5-10 ani- inca nu au ajuns la indemana noastra. Unde sunt terapia de intinerire celulara, cea telomerica, nanobotii, plasturii anti-imbatranire? Futurologul Ray Kurzweil spune in carte ca in 15 ani (2027 dupa calculele mele) biotehnologia care va rezolva cancerul si alte boli grave va "exploda"; ulterior a prezis ca din 2030 oamenii nu vor mai muri, datorita acestor tehnici sofisticate. Intre timp Suzanne e moarta si ingropata, in ciuda incercarilor de a impiedica recidiva cancerului si a sperantei ei ca va trai mult, mult, foarte mult, probabil spera sa devina centenara, dar nu m-am putut impiedica sa nu savurez cartea ei debordand de optimism, de sfaturi de la diversi practicieni in domeniul anti-aging si de informatii despre suplimente care sunt accesibile tuturor. Unele lucruri sunt controversate, dar cine e interesat poate sa se informeze suplimentar.
Intre timp am rasfoit la librarie "Outlive" de dr. Peter Attia, s-a deschis acolo unde ma interesa mai mult- el spune ca in timpul vietii noastre nu se va gasi remediul pentru cancer, decat daca apare o terapie miraculoasa. Nu stiu cui se adreseaza acest "noastre", celor de 50 de ani?, celor de 20?, dar e bine sa ne molipsim de optimismul Suzannei si sa speram la un miracol in imunologie si la implinirea previziunilor lui Kurzweil.

Much information was presented in this book, but the bottom line is that we each must be vigilant about our health and not just blindly follow what others say. Eat healthy whole foods, stay active, reduce stress, and get plenty of sleep. Since no one can get adequate nutrition from diet alone, supplementation is essential.

This is a very informative book. I can see how some readers might feel overwhelmed by the information if most of this topic is fairly new to them. LOVED it! I can't wait reading a few other books by Ms. Somers.

Great read full of interesting findings.

[Lisa Burrington · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book was too similar to her other book tox sick which I really liked. This one read more like an infomercial

[Tanesha · Rating 5 out of 5]

I enjoyed the book very much and all of the information!

[Maggie · Rating 4 out of 5]

I learned a lot from these interviews with doctors about alternative therapies for aging naturally.

[Laura Larson · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book was absolutely fascinating. I find myself wishing I had all these doctors to help me figure out a health plan for me and my future. BUT all of that takes a lot of money, which all celebrities (including Suzanne Somers) HAS. So I get a little frustrated with all the things they're able to change in their life because they have MONEY! But aside from that fact (that all of this costs money) , I am still grateful for all the wonderful knowledge in this book. I learned a lot about what steps I I should be taking to live a long, healthy and happy life.

But that's another thing, I didn't like the attitude of "I want to live forever," from Suzanne Sommers and some of the doctors. It turned me off in some chapters because it kept coming up. I'm all about doing everything I can (within my limits) to help improve my life and get rid of the toxins but I'm not thinking extreme longevity (past my 100's). I just want to be able to have strength, happiness and mobility. That's all I want when I'm 80 or 90 years old. So all-in-all, Bombshell was very enlightening to the fact of just working on being more fit and eat natural foods. The other stuff such as bio-technology and so forth....I'm sure that I won't ever be able to afford it, sorry Suzanne.

This book took me totally by surprise. It was absolutely fascinating to read about the new technologies that are currently available or will be available in the near future of medicine and curing disease. The overarching theme of the book was to educate yourself and to not assume that western medicine is always the answer. The author places heavy emphasis on eating healthy, clean foods, exercising, sleeping properly, reducing stress, and on nutritional supplements. Although I'm well educated about the food choices I should be making, I did not realize what actually happens in the body when I make bad choices. This book really opened my eyes to what goes wrong in the body as a result of poor diet and health choices. Also, I have become increasingly disheartened with western medicine, as is just doesn't seem to be working a lot of the time. We as a society are getting fatter and sicker. This book touches on some of the reasons that this is happening, and, while I feel I need to do more research, it is definitely food for thought.

[Jack Koford · Rating 4 out of 5]

From the title and the author, I normally would not be likely to seek out this book, but it was suggested by a physician friend of mine. Very readable book and GREAT information presented. The book is a series of interviews with experts in various health-related topics. Whether you agree with the "experts" or not, it is worth your while to take a look.

Get over thinking of Suzanne Somers as a "dumb blonde" or as the queen of the thigh-master. Mainstream medicine may dismiss much of what she says, but I think much of what she preaches will ultimately be adopted by mainstream medicine and we will all be healthier as a result.

[Nikki · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another great book by Somers. She interviews anti-aging doctors who work with the most advanced medical techniques for helping people age well. This book is full of really interesting information. Somers does a great service by bringing medical knowledge to an audience otherwise oblivious. She has been criticized by some as being one who embraces 'kook' medicine. She has, however, been vindicated by the fact that much of what she has preached in the past is now becoming mainstream. A great book for those interesting in maintaining their health as they age.

[Angela Whiting · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was a little difficult to read -- I didn't understand all of it because some parts were pretty technical/medical. The book did have a lot of good information though and great hopes for the future of medicine and prevention of diseases such as cancer. I will definitely start thinking twice about the things I put into my body.

[Victoria · Rating 3 out of 5]

Lot's of interesting stuff. Some I felt was very good and helpful and some that was over the top! A good book to weed though and help you think about your health and how you can age in a healthy and positive manner.

Very informative, she has done her research and is fortunate to the resources of sharing it Thank you for that.

Never thought I would read a Suzanne Somers book, but I'm glad I did!!!

She is really helping to expose a large cross-section of America to cutting edge alternative health protocols.

[Alfajirikali · Rating 2 out of 5]

Would perhaps find more compelling if the layout of book wasn't so much like an infomercial.
