Everywhere you look, you can find testimonial success stories from diets so wildly different it seems impossible that they could all work. Some tell you to eat high protein-low carbohydrate, while others tell you high carbohydrate-low fat is the way to go. The problem with most weight loss diets is that they take one diet and apply it to everyone. Unfortunately, one size (diet) does not fit all. Fat is Not Your Fate: Outsmart Your Genes and Lose the Weight Forever offers a bold new way to look at the weight loss issue by stressing the importance of a personalized nutrition plan tailored to suit the needs of your particular genetic makeup. Based on cutting-edge gene based research and on their own success stories from over a decade of private practice, nutrition experts Dr. Susan Mitchell and Dr. Catherine Christie bring us the only diet plan tailored for each of six gene-based phenotypes--Addictive, Blood pressure, Cardiovascular, Diabetic, Emotional, or Hormonal.
With the help of an in-depth questionnaire, Fat Is Not Your Fate first shows you how to identify which of the six phenotypes you are. Once you have identified your type, there is a strategic plan for weight loss uniquely tailored to satisfy your particular physical and emotional needs. Your
phenotype program can be put to work immediately and includes:
· Specific focus foods for each phenotype
· Optimum caloric consumption and fat/protein/carbohydrate balance specific to each phenotype
· Phenotype specific menu plans--for when you have a lot of time and for when you don't!
· Recipes for each phenotype
· When to eat and in what combinations to eat
· How to increase satiety and prevent portion distortion
· How to avoid pitfalls and how to handle relapses
· How to manage environmental triggers
· What supplements to take for the best results
· The best ways to exercise for your type
· Stories of how people with each gene-based type have lost weight and kept it off
Having put this diet to work with scores of clients, Dr. Mitchell and Dr. Christie have refined a scientifically based plan that really works. The six diets in this book are new and specific, involving the right combination of foods in the right quantities at the right times. These diets will not only get (and keep) the weight off, but because it targets your genetic risks, it will also improve your health, lower your disease risk and help you feel great. Fat Is Not Your Fate is the last diet book you will ever need!
