New York Times Best-Selling Authors Alona Pulde, MD and Matthew Lederman, MD bring you WELLNESS TO WONDERFUL, taking you from diseased to healthy, overweight to trim, lethargic to energetic, discouraged to hopeful, and isolated to joyfully in connection. This is the path from illness to Wellness, all the way to Wonderful - don't settle for anything less!

The authors have spent decades treating chronic illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, auto-immune disorders, and obesity with their diet and lifestyle medical practices. With Whole Foods Market co-founder John Mackey, they co-authored The Whole Foods Diet and The Whole Foods Cookbook. They also authored the NY Times best-seller The Forks Over Knives Plan, Forks Over Knives Family, and Keep It Simple, Keep It Whole.

The word wellness is most often used to describe an aspirational state of physical health, attained by attention to diet and lifestyle. Drs. Pulde and Lederman believe existing healthcare models fail to consider the measurable impact of integrating authentic connection with family, friends, colleagues, spirit, and the natural world. WELLNESS TO WONDERFUL helps to provide a clear understanding and tools to achieve this path.
