This new edition contains the basic diet and is enhanced by new explanations of the underlying theories. There are seven new chapters. Designed to catapult your body into a state of fat meltdown, Dr. Atkins's diet has taken America by storm. It targets insulin, the hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. The bodies of most overeaters are continually in a state of hyperinsulinism; their bodies are so adept at releasing insulin to help convert excess carbohydrates to fat that there's always too much of the hormone circulating through the body. This puts the body into a bind; it always wants to store fat. Even when people with hyperinsulinism try to lose weight--especially when they cut fat but increase carbohydrate consumption--their efforts will fail. This is why Dr. Atkins refers to insulin as "the fat-producing hormone." Dr. Atkins's diet is extremely low in carbohydrates, which helps to regulate insulin production and decrease circulating insulin; less insulin soon results in less fat storage and fewer food cravings. The diet is far from torturous, though--those who've tried it attest that hunger is not a part of this plan. Ninety percent of Dr. Atkins's patients--more than 25,000 of them--have experienced dramatic weight loss. The book includes recipes for such luscious, low-carb dishes as lobster soup, zabaglione, sea bass, and blueberry ice cream, and even includes a carbohydrate gram counter and menus.

The title of Swiss author Romy Dollé's, Fruit Belly, refers to abdominal bloat often accompanied by digestive distress; a common result of some basic dietary misconceptions in many fast-track, low-fat, weight loss plans. With well-defined, easy to ingest information about how the body actually breaks down and distributes fats and nutrients, Fruit Belly provides a clear 4-Day Quick Fix plan to not only relieve any existing abdominal distress, but help re-set the metabolism and reawaken the body's natural desire for the kinds of real food it wants and needs to function at its best ― while still losing unwanted pounds. Fruit Belly outlines the fundamental advantages of combining a Primal/paleo style diet with a well-rounded exercise routine for a balanced, non-aggressive approach to weight loss that's suitable to even the busiest modern lifestyle. The book's 4-Day Quick Fix program provides menu guidelines for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (including between meal snacks!) and lots of quick and tasty recipes with affordable and easily accessible ingredients. Common misconceptions about the distribution of fat and muscle weight are also addressed, and a photo-illustrated roster of simple core-strengthening stretches and exercises that can be done almost anywhere is included. Moreover, the book explains in basic terms and beautiful graphics how the human body digests and distributes the nutrients in the foods we eat; how our metabolism becomes quickly and chronically addicted to sugar (which includes fruit and carbohydrates); and the bio-chemical connection between mind and body that drives our sense of hunger and satiety. Fruit Belly provides a comprehensive and holistic solution to counter the crash-course weight loss approach - and puts you back on the path to a healthful and more energizing "non-diet" diet.

For decades we have been taught that fat is bad for us, carbohydrates better, and that the key to a healthy weight is eating less and exercising more. Yet despite this advice, we have seen unprecedented epidemics of obesity and diabetes. Taubes argues that the problem lies in refined carbohydrates, like white flour, easily digested starches, and sugars, and that the key to good health is the kind of calories we take in, not the number. Called “a very important book,†by Andrew Weil and …†destined to change the way we think about food,†by Michael Pollan,  this groundbreaking book by award-winning science writer Gary Taubes shows us that almost everything we believe about the nature of a healthy diet is wrong. Don't miss Gary Taubes's latest book, The Case Against Sugar, available now. Â
