«Je crève la forme» is the health and humour essay by A. J. Jacobs, published by Jacqueline Chambon in paperback (360 pages, in French).
In the book, A. J. Jacobs sets out to achieve perfect health and an optimal body: he prepares a 53-page list of improvements, consults specialists and tries extreme diets and exercises, from raw foodism to treadmill work. With irony, he shows how the wellness cult can become a medical, aesthetic and nutritional tyranny.
The French edition is from 2013 and translates the original Drop Dead Healthy: One Man's Humble Quest for Bodily Perfection, published in 2012. In 2012 it was nominated for the Goodreads Choice Award for humour.
A suitable read for those interested in health, wellness and memoirs of personal experiments with a critical and humorous approach.
