The official US edition of the international
bestseller—containing US measurements and a month's worth of meals in color.
Is it possible to eat normally, five days a week, and become
slimmer and healthier as a result?
Simple answer: yes. You just limit your calorie intake for
two nonconsecutive days each week—500 calories for women, 600 for men. You’ll
lose weight quickly and effortlessly with the FastDiet.
Scientific trials of intermittent fasters have shown that it
will not only help the pounds fly off, but also reduce your risk of a range of
diseases from diabetes to cardiovascular disease and even cancer. “The
scientific evidence is strong that intermittent fasting can improve health,”
says Dr. Mark Mattson, Chief of the Laboratory of Neurosciences, National
Institute on Aging, and Professor of Neuroscience, Johns Hopkins University.
This book brings together the results of new, groundbreaking
research to create a dietary program that can be incorporated into your busy
daily life, featuring:
• Forty 500- and 600-calorie meals that are quick and easy
to make
• 8 pages of photos that show you what a typical “fasting
meal” looks like
• The cutting-edge science behind the program
• A calorie counter that makes dieting easy
• And much more.
Far from
being just another fad, the FastDiet is a radical new way of thinking about
food, a lifestyle choice that could transform your health. This is your
indispensable guide to simple and effective weight loss, without fuss or the
need to endlessly deprive yourself.
