Summary: It's already happening!!!
Review: Shocking for everybody,
Exiting for most people,
Lifechanging for a few people, like me,
and maybe you....

I heard about this book and bought it instantly.
I read it and was MESMERISED!!!
It opened my mind to the greatest business opportunity there is today and probably the greatest there ever will be!
I used to believe I was in the greatest most promising business in the world(wellness distribution).
Today I know!!!

Since reading this book I have improved my wellness lifestyle.
My health was great but now it's absolutely unbelievably GREAT!
Before I read this book I was doing my business part-time along with my full-time job.
Today I Just do my business part time and get paid the same as before. This book gave me the courage to make that decision.
That decision has changed my life.
I am not the only one I know with a story like that.

I read this book 6 months ago and some of the things Paul is predicting are already happening.

In the book Pilzer talks about many different opportunities within the Wellness industry and I believe you can find some career you'll be interested in.

For the last 20 years Paul Zane Pilzer has been the most accurate economic forecaster in the world.

Is it worth $$ + few hours of reading to learn about the next BIG THING?

If you don't think so, read this review again!

I'm a 19 year old "teenager" from Iceland living a lifestyle that most people are even scared to dream of.
I am ready and have positioned myself correctly for the biggest Megatrend there ever will be.

As I said earlier there are many opportunities within this industry, I am an Independent Herbalife Disributor.

What are you going to do?
What do you want to be?
What's your reason?
What's your ecxuse???????

Summary: Stay Well Rather Than Cure Sickness!
Review: The main problem with The Wellness Revolution is that the brilliant Paul Zane Pilzer has stretched a magazine article's worth of information on healthy living and ways to develop businesses around that theme into a book. If you know nothing about how nutrition, water and exercise affect your health, you will probably love this book. But you can find better books. If you have been paying attention to those areas, you will find the book to be superficial and limited. As for investing, the ideas are pretty broad. Basically, you should make the economics of your business serve wellness and anti-aging.

What will be new to some are the details of how you can use high deductible health insurance and tax-advantaged medical savings to cut your cost of sickness while having some money left over for wellness activities (like exercise and better food). If you regularly read investment or business magazines, chances are you will know about these ideas too.

For entrepreneurs, the stories of Steve Demos (Silk soy milk), Paul Wenner (Gardenburger), Jill Kenney (Club One fitness), Dr. Frank Yanowitz (The Fitness Institute), Dr. Tod Cooperman (ConsumerLab.com), and Stuart Johnson (facilitating wellness products being provided through network marketing) may help inspire a new business thought or principle. Professionals can look at pages 188-189 for specific examples that apply to them.

Those who want stock purchase ideas won't find much here, although you'll probably have an itch to buy stock in whomever first specializes a whole company in wellness insurance.

As a result, the "how to" part of the book's subtitle is quite misleading.

There is a fine book that can be written on this subject, but unfortunately, this isn't it.

After you finish this book (if you choose to read it), I suggest that you find ways to make your working and investing more health-enhancing for you and others. If nothing else, walk on a treadmill while you watch the financial news at night to pick out companies that enhance health!

Summary: Mine went in the trash
Review: This book really didn't tell me a whole lot I didn't already know. Probably the only part that I really paused to think about was the link between the "sick care" industry and the food industry. I already know about how processed our foods are and are lacking nutrition. As a benefits specialist for my employer, I found of the information about the insurance to be somewhat misleading. This book probably would have been great about fifteen years ago, but we are already here now. Save your money, most of the information here can be found in other sources and I was really wondering how I was going to make my "fortune" in the health care industry and I'm not about to sell medical insurance.
