The Spark Factor
A breakthrough programme for women to revive their lost energy and vitality In The Spark Factor, Dr Molly Maloof shares a gamechanging programme uniquely tailored to the biology of women that targets the mitochondria, the power source of the cells. As Dr Maloof shows, the intense, all or nothing approaches commonly used to optimise health - including sustained fasting, ultra low-carb diets and intense training - can be harmful, especially for women, because they create excessive stress in an already-stressed body, which can make us tired, weak and prone to illness. Dr Maloof's innovative plan offers lifestyle changes that are designed with women in mind and provide immediate and long-term benefits. Instead of denying our bodies, we need to listen to what they are telling us. Once we become aware of our physical needs, we can give ourselves the resources to become more connected, nourished, safe and strong. With strategies for personalised nutrition, hormonal health and stress management, as well as cutting-edge biohacking insights, The Spark Factor is the book women have been waiting for to help them reclaim their vitality and achieve lasting health.
