Details Condition: New Format: Paperback ISBN: 9781509893089 Publisher: Bluebird (Pan Macmillan) Age Range: Adult / General Readership Overview How Not to Diet by Dr Michael Greger cuts through decades of fad-diet noise to deliver a rigorously researched, permanent approach to healthy weight loss. Drawing on hundreds of peer-reviewed studies, Greger, founder of NutritionFacts.org, explains why so many diets fail long-term and what actually works. Rather than another quick-fix plan, this paperback offers a sustainable, whole-food framework built on fibre, water and nutrient density, designed to help readers lose weight and keep it off for good. About the Book Following on from his bestselling How Not to Die, Dr Greger turns his attention to the science of sustainable weight management in How Not to Diet. The book begins by unpicking the many overlapping causes of obesity, from genetics and portion sizes to environmental and social factors, before mapping the serious health consequences linked to excess weight, from diabetes to certain cancers. From there, Greger sets out his own evidence-based Weight Loss Booster Foods, Drinks, and Actions plan, identifying specific dietary changes shown in clinical research to accelerate fat loss safely. He explores how a diet naturally high in fibre and water, and lower in salt, sugar and fat, supports the body's own weight-regulating systems, and introduces twenty-one weight-loss accelerators drawn from fields such as chronobiology. Throughout, every recommendation is backed by citations to published research, giving readers the confidence to make informed choices rather than following trends blindly. The result is a comprehensive, practical guide that treats weight loss as a long-term health project rather than a short-term challenge, making it equally useful as a reference book to return to again and again.
