The YOU phenomenon continues to grow as Dr. Michael Roizen and Dr. Mehmet Oz work to educate readers about health. Now, the YOU docs offer a quick and simple-to-navigate guidebook for teens about the ins and outs of fat, nutrition, exercise, emotions, and all of the important elements that go into devising a weight-loss system.

In YOU(r) Teen: Losing Weight, Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen offer a simple guide to health and fitness that teaches readers not only what works in terms of weight loss, but how to create an environment that allows these actions to become automatic. Managing weight and health doesn’t have to be a struggle; with the right techniques, anyone can do it!

This book takes a look at the biology of weight gain and loss, because the YOU docs always feel that the why element is an important precursor to the what. Being armed with this information will give you teaching moments to discuss the body and how it works. After learning the biology, the book is packed with the strategies and tips that you can employ to safely and practically lose weight. It also provides some great family-friendly recipes, a sample two-week diet plan, and three family-friendly workouts that will help burn calories and build stronger bodies. Aimed specifically at some of the health and body issues that directly affect teens but written for the whole family, YOU(r) Teen: Losing Weight is about learning the best practices for a lifetime of good health.
