July is all about staying cool and we're going to help you! Picture Canada's favourite pastime — hockey. Now hold that thought while I tell you about a unique contest this month that combines the theme of great food and good health - and yes, hockey. Read on to find out about how you can be entered for the grand prize draw and if you wish, help autism too.

I wrote my book the Real Sexy, Smart and Strong for two reasons. First, I wanted you to have the latest and greatest information on all aspects of fitness and health. I think you'll find my book easy to read. It's full of practical information and tips to boost your confidence and inspire you to create a lifetime of being sexy, smart and strong. Second, my book supports the cause that's closest to my heart — the Kilee Patchell-Evans Autism Research Group at the University of Western Ontario. All the royalties from The Real Sexy, Smart and Strong go to supporting this research team.

My passion for finding the cause and cure for autism, as you know, stems from my own experience as the father of an autistic child. It's far more than just personal though — autism is a worldwide epidemic. Statistics show that as many as 1 in every 91 children has some form of autism spectrum disorder. Even just two years ago, that statistic was 1 in 150, so as you can see, this epidemic is escalating. Under the direction of neuroscientist Dr. Derrick MacFabe, this team has made remarkable progress in unraveling the autism mystery. In a relatively short time they have forged collaborations with internationally renowned universities and researchers, all incredibly dedicated to this cause.

So here’s my call to action. Go to my website (www.davidpatchellevans.com) and order your copy of The Real Sexy, Smart and Strong. Not only will you be getting a ton of great information about fitness (ideal summer reading!), but you will also be supporting a great cause that will change the world for children and their families. While you’re on the site, enter our contest!

The Grand Prize is an official Toronto Marlies Hockey Stick signed by the team AND a copy of Cooking with Canada's Best, full of signature recipes from Canada's greatest chefs autographed by the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey team! How cool is that!

The contest deadline is July 20, 2010, so sign up without delay and the Great Guys reward could be yours!
