Robert Pirello
With more than 30 years of macrobiotic living under his belt, Robert Pirello brings some serious experience and understanding to health conditions. Robert’s quiet wisdom comes from observation, reflection, research and personal experience. Normally not one to step in front of crowds, Robert’s charismatic personality comes to the forefront when he describes his intense health crisis.
In 1998, Robert was diagnosed with severe osteoporosis, with a secondary diagnosis of malnutrition. Talk about a wake-up call! Deep reflection, research, profound understanding and proactive participation in his recovery plan resulted in Robert’s full recovery…and a passion to share his hard-won knowledge.
Experience and research have made Robert an expert on this most important topic…among others. In his first book B.O.N.E.S, Beating Osteoporosis Naturally, Robert tells the dramatic story of his diagnosis and recovery from severe osteoporosis, with the help of his holistic family doctor, his wife's cooking...and no pharmaceuticals.
Lectures for the 2011 Cruise
Lecture 1: "Boning Up!"
Experience is a great teacher. Being diagnosed with severe osteoporosis in 1998 was an amazing experience, not one I would repeat, but profound. Forced to reflect on what I considered to be a healthy lifestyle, I learned more about life and living during that time than ever before. Join me for a most informative lecture on the care and feeding of our bones. Brittle, fragile bones are not inevitable. With proper nutrition, supplementation and understanding, our bones can give us strong support well into our golden years.
Lecture 2: You Don't Have To Grow Old
The secrets to a long, healthy life are widely debated and sometimes misunderstood, yet remarkable groups of people manage to achieve it normally. They enjoy longer lifespans while remaining active and vital well into their 90s and 100s. The key to living a long, healthy life and not growing old in the process is not some deep, dark secret. It is attainable by every person walking the face of the earth. And the good news...it's really quite simple. In this fun and informative lecture/discussion, Robert Pirello will take you on a journey to explore the keys to longevity, and in doing so, will introduce you to the joy of aging.
