A breast cancer 'thriver,' Olivia Newton John is still the picture of health and well-being. If you were wondering how she's managed to look so good through all these years, wonder no more.
The secret of Newton-John's success is no secret at all. She exercises daily and eats a very thought-out diet based mostly on vegetables, fish, and whole grains. Newton-John firmly believes that what we eat is imperative to staying healthy and well-balanced and she shares this philosophy in her first book, Livwise.
Recipes in Livwise have been put together using Newton-John's own experience in the kitchen and with the help of nutritionists and chefs from Gaia, her Australian health retreat.
