“[The 20/30 Fat & Fiber Diet Plan] could help save your life. It did for me.” - Larry King The 20/30 Fat & Fiber Diet Plan is an amazingly simple and medically sound program that will help you lose weight and keep it off, dramatically improve your overall health and fortify your body against diseases - with delicious and satisfying foods you can have anytime, anywhere. Medical research proves that there's only one way to safely and permanently lose weight: eat less fat and more fiber. Best-selling authors Gabe Mirkin, M.D. and Barry Fox, Ph.D. show you how this simple, practical, life-changing program of delicious low-fat, fiber-rich foods not only aids in weight loss, but also lowers the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and many forms of cancer.The 20/30 Fat & Fiber Diet Plan gives you all the tools you'll need to get trim and stay that way, including a special pocket-sized gram counter that allows you to easily keep track of the number of fat and fiber grams you consume everyday, and a convenient fold-out food list with examples of everyday foods' fat and fiber content.Dr. Mirkin Reads. The average American eats the fat equivalent of a cup of butter each day, and it's easy to convert this dietary fat to body fat (the saying "A moment on the lips, forever on the hips" isn't so farfetched after all). This is probably why one in three adults in this country is obese. But authors Gabe Mirkin, M.D., and Barry Fox, Ph.D. (coauthor of the bestselling Arthritis Cure) say that focusing on cutting the fat out of your diet is not the right way to lose weight, as a drastically low-fat diet almost always leads to late-day bingeing. By increasing dietary fiber to 30 grams a day (with beans, whole grains, and vegetables), and by moderately cutting fat intake to 20 grams, they say that permanent weight loss can be achieved-- without painful hunger pangs, headaches, or petulant fits of rage that threaten your long-term relationships. This is the very diet that TV talk...

But what if you didn’t have to say “no”? Chef Pasquale Cozzolino of Naples, Italy, did just that and lost nearly 100 pounds.

By now most of us are aware of the threats looming in the food world. The best-selling Fast Food Nation and other recent books have alerted us to such dangers as genetically modified organisms, food-borne diseases, and industrial farming. Now it is time for answers, and Slow Food Nation steps up to the challenge. Here the charismatic leader of the Slow Food movement, Carlo Petrini, outlines many different routes by which we may take back control of our food. The three central principles of the Slow Food plan are these: food must be sustainably produced in ways that are sensitive to the environment, those who produce the food must be fairly treated, and the food must be healthful and delicious. In his travels around the world as ambassador for Slow Food, Petrini has witnessed firsthand the many ways that native peoples are feeding themselves without making use of the harmful methods of the industrial complex. He relates the wisdom to be gleaned from local cultures in such varied places as Mongolia, Chiapas, Sri Lanka, and Puglia. Amidst our crisis, it is critical that Americans look for insight from other cultures around the world and begin to build a new and better way of eating in our communities here.
