"Dr Savard's newest book, Apples and Pears, is a five star sensation both for its content and style. It is truly ground-breaking in positioning body shape as both a predictor of medical risk and guide for many medical and health decisions and choices for women. The book synthesizes an enormous amount of research on women's health and "connects the dots" as it relates to the fundamental issue of body shape. Not only is the book a wealth of empowering information, it is written in a disarmingly engaging style. It feels like you're in a private conversation with Dr Savard, sitting in her office, reviewing and discussing your personal health history, concerns and priorities! I believe we will see the influence of Dr Savard's work on many levels, including in the offices of many enlightened physicians throughout the nation". "I've never been so happy about my big thighs! That in itself is a reason to read this book! Otherwise, this is a great book for all women wanting answers about their health today and wanting a prediction about what is likely to happen to them in the future. Who knew body shape was so predictive! You'll never look at the world the same again. After reading this book, I wander around looking at women saying to myself... you're an Apple, Apple, Pear, Pear, Pear... it's so fun. Learn what you can do to protect yourself, your family and your friends. This book is fun, easy to read and you learn SO much". "I am about 1/2 way done with the book...it makes SOOOO much sense...I had tried the South Beach and I would lose a few pounds, but not too much...then go stagnent...it makes so much sense! I am a pear and don't have a lot of belly fat to lose, which is what is stated on the front cover of the South Beach Book...so it worked for awhile, just like Marie states and then stops! I can't wait to finish it! I need to go to the grocery store though and get a few better or "Elite" choices. I am praying that it changes my life and health!"
