The 6 Keys by Jillian Michaels

6-keys

Jillian Michaels wants to help you battle aging strategically with this six-step beauty and health plan based on information she's gleaned from top minds in geroscience, or the science of aging.

"People believe that aging is this slow descent into decrepitude. That’s not true," Michaels told PEOPLE in 2016. "When people say, 'Oh, I’m 40 now, and this is happening to me and that’s happening to me,' it’s the cumulative effect of years of neglect, which—by the way—can still be turned around."

The F*ck It Diet by Caroline Dooner 

Fuck-it-Diet

Dooner says "diets don't work" and presents an alternative for chronic dieters.

"I didn’t realize that, in a way, we are meant to be fixated on food. Because food is a fundamentally important part of staying alive, so when the body senses that food access is scarce, our food fixation increases," Dooner writes in her blog about the logic behind the "f*ck it" diet.

"Thankfully the reverse is also true. Hallelujah. Once the body knows it will be fed, it can calm down."
