Diets are made to go “on” and “off of”, and if you’re like most people–who want to be fit, lean, alert and healthy–you don’t want to diet. You want to eat naturally and normally, in a way that helps you have the body and lifestyle you deserve to enjoy. In EAT, Dr. Ian Smith has created a blueprint for you. It’s a flexible and intelligent plan you can follow every day, in every situation–eating out, working late, traveling, cooking for the holidays–and that will urge your body to perform at its peak. You’ll drop any excess pounds you need to lose. You won’t worry about what you “can” and “can’t” eat, but will listen to yourself and eat smart.
Dr. Ian’s Ten Simple Rules for Good Eating tell you what the experts know:
–Follow the Rainbow: if you eat color, you’re getting vitamins and minerals in the right package
–Carb Heaven: don’t ban carbohydrates–or any nutrient group!
–The Whole Truth About Whole Grains: they may not be what you think they are, and you should be eating them all the time
–Feel Full Fiber: it’s magic at every meal
–Protein Bonanza: all proteins aren’t equal
–Spicetopia: 5 of the tastiest and healthiest spices in the world
–Size Matters: how to portion, and secret calories you don’t know about
–You are What You Drink: the miracle liquid and drinks that can wash out good eating
–Unearthing the Organic Truth: it’s not always healthier
–The Power of Snacks: they can help you lose weight!
Cut to the chase with Dr. Ian’s EAT Plan at the end of each chapter, or become your own expert by reading from start to finish. Either way, EAT is not about denial. It’s about permission….to live, to fuel your strong body, to eat!

“Pulls you into the depths of a secret world from the first page. Ian Smith’s novel is unmissable.” –Harlan Coben, New York Times bestselling author of Missing You
Spencer Collins thinks his life at Harvard will be all about basketball and pre-med; hard workouts and grinding work in class. The friends he’s made when he hits the storied ivy-clad campus from a very different life in urban Chicago are a happy bonus. But Spencer is about to be introduced to the most mysterious inner sanctum of the inner sanctum: to his surprise, he’s in the running to be “punched” for one of Harvard’s elite final clubs.
The Delphic Club is known as “the Gas” for its crest of three gas-lit flames, and as Spencer is considered for membership, he’s plunged not only into the secret world of male privilege that the Gas represents, but also into a century-old club mystery. Because at the heart of the Delphic, secured deep inside its guarded mansion club, is another secret society: a shadowy group of powerful men known as The Ancient Nine.
Who are The Ancient Nine? And why is Spencer–along with his best friend Dalton Winthrop–summoned to the deathbed of Dalton’s uncle just as Spencer is being punched for the club? What does the lore about a missing page from one of Harvard’s most historic books mean? And how does it connect to religion, murder, and to the King James Bible, if not to King James himself?
Ian Smith’s The Ancient Nine is both a coming of age audiobook and a swiftly plotted story that lets listeners into the ultimate of closed worlds with all of its dark historical secrets and unyielding power.
More Praise for The Ancient Nine:
“With a masterful hand, Ian Smith has written a novel that immerses us in the dark intrigue of one of the country’s oldest secret societies. The Ancient Nine is thrilling, exciting, and shocking from beginning to end.” — Michael Eric Dyson, New York Times bestselling author of Tears We Cannot Stop
