Synopsis
In this reference, renowned nutritionist Andrew Weil provides a sensible weight-loss plan, which includes a low-fat, well-balanced diet that may promote optimum health. In doing so, he offers readers basic facts about nutrition and describes the body's chemical reaction to calories, carbohydrates, and fats. He also critiques numerous diets from around the world, pointing out the health risks and benefits that each is associated with. Realizing that eating is pleasurable, he shows readers how to indulge in delicious, nutritious foods that will enhance their dining experiences rather than their waistlines. This is not a quick-fix diet; Weil encourages diners to permanently commit to healthy eating habits. His 85 recipes include Mediterranean Tuna Steaks, Poached Salmon, Potato-Rosemary-Crusted Fish Fillets, and several vegetarian options, like Grilled Tempeh Sandwiches and Vegetable Stir-Fry with Tofu.
