Slim Down, Look Great, Be Healthy!
by Stuart A. Seale, M.D., Teresa Sherard, M.D, & Diana Fleming, Ph.D.,LDN
Bard Press
January, 2010
America's struggle with weight is reaching epidemic proportions. Gallup polls show that six in ten Americans are on a diet, one in five teens are overweight and the majority of Americans report that they are heavier now than they were a decade ago. Further, our aging baby boomer population is developing health problems directly related to the way they eat.
Together, these factors have put many Americans in perpetual diet mode and have made the need for a life changing eating plan both overdue and urgent. THE FULL PLATE DIET: Slim Down! Look Great! Be Healthy! (Bard Press, January 2010) by MD's Stuart Seale, Teresa Sherard and licensed nutritionist Diana Fleming is a simple, but powerful way to lose weight. Clear, concise and very easy to follow, it's appropriate for everyone from teens to seniors.
THE FULL PLATE DIET rests on a single fulcrum - dietary fiber. Once considered the dry and tasteless bran foods favored by grandmothers, fiber is now being rediscovered for its enormous health benefits. Found in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans and nuts, dietary fiber has no calories, benefits beyond weight loss and, perhaps, best of all, allows you to fill your plate, and your stomach, while still dropping weight.
The plan works because it's simple - eat 40 grams of fiber per day, a strategy made easy by the book's listing of the top fiber sources in each category of fruit, vegetables, grains, beans and nuts, which will reduce the amount of calories you eat, while still allowing you to eat until you're full.
Unlike so many of the popular plans which require specially purchased meals or food, complicated calorie counting, or limited lists of "allowed" foods, THE FULL PLATE DIET is an eating plan that can be adopted for life.
