Happy Days Healthy Living (paperback)

Happy Days Healthy Living by Silvers, Cathy Both a celebrity autobiography and the tale of a journey to healthful and a living-foods lifestyle, Happy Days Healthy Living chronicles the Hollywood childhood and acting career of Cathy Silvers, daughter of iconic comedian Phil Silvers. The first half of the book's title references Cathy's years as a cast member of the popular TV series Happy Days, on which she played the character of Jenny Piccolo. The story of her auditions and capture of the coveted role provides a fascinating backstage glimpse inside the television industry and one of the most popular series of all time. The second part of this story is Cathy's adult journey from "fast-food mom" to spokesperson for healthy living on a new "web vision" network, The Healthy Living Network. In addition to her own experience learning about juicing, vegetarianism, organic food, non-toxic products, and other elements of a healthy diet and life, the author brings in voices from the world of health, nutrition, and alternative medicine to lend their expertise--these include leaders in the living-foods movement such as Dr. Gabriel Cousens, David Wolfe, and Victoria Boutenko, along with professionals well-versed in alternative medicinal approaches. Cathy Silvers successfully healed a breast condition with Chinese medicine when her doctor wanted to perform a double mastectomy. This and other experiences with alternative medicine led her to include healing along with diet in her discussion of healthy choices. One of the more moving themes of the book is the author's touching relationship with her famous and largely absent father, the late Phil Silvers, who inspired her as an actress and entrepreneurbut also left her to grapple with the issue of who he really was. Short passages by Erin Moran, Marion Ross, and Henry Winkler of Happy Days highlight the book, along with a preface by the show's producer, Garry Marshall, and an introduction by its star, Ron Howard. A good read with plenty of salient information about Hollywood and healthy living. Cathy Silvers can be found today offering raw food demonstrations and book signings for her new book distributed by Random House, Happy Days Healthy Living at markets such as Whole Foods Markets, or book stores like Borders or Barnes and Nobles and at most major Health and Wellness Expos and Festivals around the country, where she not only educates people looking to transition to a healthier lifestyle, but provides an entertaining insight into her life growing up as the daughter of iconic comedian Phil Silvers and playing the role of Jenny Piccolo, the sassy, sexy friend of Joanie on the long running TV series, Happy Days. Cathy is very open about her personal life, which has had more than its share of ups and downs, telling many of the stories that have caused her to seek a healthier lifestyle. About 10 years ago, Cathy successfully healed a pre-cancerous breast condition with Chinese medicine after her doctor suggested a double mastectomy. This and other experiences with alternative medicine have led Cathy to include healing along with a healthy diet as her choice of healthier living. Details of her transition are chronicled in her recently published book, ?Happy Days Healthy Living?. The first part of the book references Cathy\'s years as a cast member on the popular TV series Happy Days. The second part focuses on Cathy\'s adult journey from \"fast-food mom\" to spokesperson for healthy living on her new Healthy Living Website and \"web vision\" Network , The Healthy Living Network with The Healthy Living Show and The Healthy Living Kids Show. Cathy, now 46, lives in Los Angeles with her husband and their ?yours, mine and ours? family of five children. The youngest two have grown up almost entirely as raw food vegans. Cathy?s interest in health and lifestyle has become a career. Her Healthy Living company includes the Healthy Living Store with the Healthy Living Blender by Blendtec, the Healthy Living line of ?Superfoods? and Trail Mix and the Healthy Living Raw Vegan Restaurant online delivery service and Catering throughout the US. With her own Healthy Living shows, Cathy, who is trained as a raw foods chef, has the opportunity to share her knowledge and personal experiences with others. With the aid of a variety of experts, she hopes to show other families how to live each day to the fullest. As a student of the Bauman School of Holistic Nutrition with health and raw food cuisine at the forefront, Cathy is also a lifestyle coach. Although a practicing raw food vegan herself, Cathy?s clients include a wide range of people who are transitioning. Cathy explains, ?It could be someone simply transitioning from processed to non-processed foods?or someone who wants to become a vegetarian or perhaps a full-fledged vegan removing all animal products from their diet. ?The first step is the Healthy Living Juice blended with organic dark green leafy greens, fresh organic fruit and the high antioxidant rich in vitamin C fruit, gojiberries along with purified water. Next is to implement as many organic ?living foods? into one?s diet. To replace coffee and sweets at the same time I recommend my GojiGoddess Smoothie with my Goji Goddess Trail Mix and water in the Healthy Living Blender. Works like a charm!?
