There are thousands of people every day to the way people about health, fitness and happiness revolutionize, and each year we see that make the greatest impact (for good and not so good reasons). Last year, the focus seemed to change American's diets (and the never-ending attempt to reduce our consumption of sugar and processed foods), building a strong prey, and the reduction of stress, so that we can be happier and more productive.
When trying to determine the most powerful innovators in this field, we have more quantifiable factors for each candidate: they have achieved social reach, research, they have helped professional certifications and degrees trends that they have established, products, they "ve created and media coverage, among a few other things. (You can have a look at the details on our metrics among the list.) After many discussions (and way too much mathematics), here are the 100 people which we set to Even though we do not always agree with the most influential figures in fitness, health and happiness this year. with each approach, we can always respect any effort to help ease a little healthy life.

Video viral faster than Kim K attempt to break the Internet, and not to mention her stunning cameo with Jimmy Fallon and Will Ferrell, where she reminds us all went that exercise is very healthy, not "ew." We do not see they come from the stage in the near future and we're pretty happy about it.
2. Mehmet Oz, M. D.

America's "Doctor"
While thought by many to be one of the most trusted doctors in America, Mehmet Oz, MD, has under the knife this year. But we are not talking about heart surgery-something Oz actually performs on the side, but from the media and the Congress, which preach Oz inaccurate, unsupported health
counseling not even indicted, but several times during his career. And unfortunately for him, it turns out, only 46 percent (from 479 recommendations) were accurate. OUCH. Shortcomings aside, Oz continues to be a (mostly) positive presence in the health room to be with millions of fans to an Emmy Award winning show, best-selling books and The Good Life, his new magazine launches.
3. Deepak Chopra, M. D.

Meditation Maven
Chips, salsa, what Deepak Chopra, MD, meditation-you can not have one without thinking of others! As a step in the health spotlight has Chopra published several books, his own meditation app, and even launched a 21-day meditation experience with Oprah that was offered in Spanish in 2014 for the
second time. Although the holistic wellness approach lawyer is provided by many in question, there is no doubt he is on the right track: stress reduction and mindfulness makes your body (and mind) well. Whether religious or not, his website has lots of information about alternative medicine, and considering that he was the chief of staff at a prestigious hospital in Boston, we would say that his ideas are worth a visit.

The Bulletproof Exec
That was the year the ball a coffee brew a cup of coffee mixed with two tablespoons of grass-fed butter and two tablespoons of coconut oil and that is all thanks to Dave Asprey. The veteran Silicon Valley investor says he has more than $ 300,000 spent to find hacking its biology ways to help its metabolism (and its focus) without counting calories or recording outrageous increase training programs. The bulletproof diet, the foods from toxic (wait ...) ball organized distilled his years of research into easy-to-understand guidelines. And while Asprey has many people sing his praises, has the scientific community was lukewarm about his coffee and food, pending further evidence.

The New York Times Magazine article is also quite the activist, challenging people constantly think differently about the food we consume, and how that impacts our economy and environment. When not busy writing thought provocateurs like his most famous work, The Omnivore Dilemma, Pollan teaches at UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism.

14. Joy Bauer, R. D.
14. Joy Bauer, R. D.
TV Nutrition Ista

In addition to supplying the screen time, last year launched Bauer Nourish snacks, a subscription service, healthy, part controlled packs of mixed nuts, cereal and more.

15. Andrew Weil, M. D.
15. Andrew Weil, M. D.
Holistic Healer
Many doctors encourage a diet primarily of whole foods, but Andrew Weil, MD, this notion has taken a step further by True Food Kitchen in 2008, a restaurant that sticks closely to the principles of its anti-inflammatory diet. Ten restaurant openings later, we think it's safe to say, since the theory that a healthy diet and lifestyle implications for health more than we think is likely, at least in more detail. The integrated medicine man and supplier of Weil Lifestyle also published hundreds of scientific articles, upwards of 13 books written and is Director of the Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona, where he continues to teach and to endorse a holistic approach to wellness.

While many are quick to criticize Dyer for his "New Age" ideas and religious assertions (he knows to emulate for promoting the reader to Jesus Christ), we love his approach to positive thinking and maximizing their own potential.
17. Gwyneth Paltrow
17. Gwyneth Paltrow
Cleansing Queen
Gwyneth Paltrow cares so much about health that after one of our favorite fruits her daughter's name: Apple. While this may not be quite right, it is known as one of the most dedicated health asterisks around. A Tracy Anderson workout fanatic and creator of Goop attention-grabbing (and sometimes extravagant) healthy-living blog Paltrow is no stranger to the kitchen and detox cleanses. While we love that the Oscar winner is the popularization of healthy foods such as salmon with sriracha and lime, their approach can sometimes unrealistic and restrictive. Can not say that we fully agree with Martha, though.
18. Bob Harper

Most of his whole foods, low-sugar approach to eating is known, the doctor released his latest diet book installation, the blood sugar solution 10-Day Detox Diet, in February 2014. The healthy food activist Fed Up also played a major role in a controversial documentary over childhood obesity, and the food industry. The founder of the Ultra Wellness Center may have a jam-packed drive, but we doubt it will slow down anytime soon. His 2015 calendar is probably full of television appearances on programs like The Dr. Oz Show, further work on health and many surprises.
21. David Katz, M. D. m.p.h.
Do-It-All Disease-Fighter
Editor-in-Chief, inventor, doctor, counselor, president of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine ... it's something that David Katz, MD, MPH, can not do that? The only thing we can think of is rest, as we have no idea how to fit it into his schedule. The Yale grad (and current clinical instructor and director of the Prevention Research Center at the University) also written Disease-Proof last year, which will teach the reader to reduce their risk of disease by up to 80 percent, not too shabby. You can also his work on The Huffington Post, where he writes about everything from DNA to find obesity to Dunkin 'Donuts, and he is the mastermind behind the NuVal, a system that demystifies the nutritional labels. We can not wait to see what he is doing next.

22. Lisa Lillien
Hungry Girl
It was a decade since Lisa Lillien for the first time the health world (and our mailboxes) by storm with Hungry Girl. What was considered a healthy living newsletter does not mean everything from cookbooks on a TV show, who must prove produced healthy diet, limited to small portions. In 2014, it expanded Lillien of Hungry Girl empire, with a four-week plan of signature super-sized, low-calorie meals include a diet book. While we keen supporters of eating in moderation, we know we are to be no fun together when we hangry. Our main concern with Lillien: It's almost too good mood. Your pep talks can be encouraging, until they let us say, "Enough!"
23. Bethenny Frankel

The Real Low-Cal Housewife
Wine, sangria, vodka, margaritas ... gang is all here! And although Bethenny Frankel like all these drinks (in moderation, of course), it also rocks a constantly healthy body thanks to its low calorie Skinnygirl cocktail creations and commitment to health and fitness. Booze aside, she made her mark as (former) talk show host, business woman, blogger, and lifestyle guru.

26. Anthony "Tony" Robbins
Mr. solution
Tony Robbins is survival literally (the feet are size 16) and, when it comes to his coaching career. From finding inner peace and personal growth to vocational guidance and management of finances Robbins is about maximizing their own potential. And with clients such as Bill Clinton, the late Mother Teresa and the late Nelson Mandela, it is safe to say that self-help author and motivational speaker knows a thing or two about how to do just that. Despite his desire for constant action in his life, Robbins sat down to finish his latest book, money master the game last year: 7 Simple Steps to Financial Freedom. While we'd love to visit his Mastery University, getting close to Robbins comes with a hefty price tag. We say to one of the many bestsellers he stay cooped up.

29. Tony Horton
Mr. P90X
More than a decade after bursting onto the fitness scene with the breakthrough performance 90 and P90X workouts, Tony Horton shows no signs of stopping. And today it is not just about fitness. His book The Big Picture (Feb 2014) describes how the physical health to all parts of our life, financial well-being of the overall happiness is connected, of mental health. His biggest news came at the end of 2014, when he unveiled P90X3, a new series of 30-minute workouts that focus on short stints favor of all-out efforts instead of the hour-and-a-half-workout in P90X. While studies have shown that 30-minute workouts have similar effects on those who take an hour or more, we are carefully crushed by high intensity workouts that feel abandoned.

30. Joe Cross
Juice Evangelist
Joe Cross entered our radar screens with his award-winning documentary, Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead, about his weight loss journey (and life transformation) all through the power of juice. In the years since, thousands of people given juicing a vortex after seeing the film and also in part to companies Cross, starting with Joe, who acts as the de facto juicing community. During transformation cross is impressive (and we are the first to sing the praises of a diet with tons of fruit and vegetables) is far from a panacea juicing. In fact, there is little scientific evidence that juice cleanses are healthier than eating a balanced diet.

As a best-selling author, radio host, meditation teacher and vlogger (video blogger), Bernstein has started a movement of the inner introspection. It is a way she found herself: With 21 own successful PR firm she created, but realizing there was something missing in the center of her life, she left the business to follow her calling as a motivational speaker and spiritual leader.
