Thinking of going on a diet? Trying to lose a few kilos?
For many people dieting has a huge cost, both emotional and financial, is ineffective, and can be dangerous. But most of us would like to be able to control our weight. Now, new research by Dr Dale Atrens, the bestselling author of 'Don't Diet' and 'The Power Of Pleasure', shows that you can lose weight safely, and he tells you how.
Part of his approach lies in rejecting outmoded notions of weight loss and dieting. Did you know that:
- Conventional dieting reduces brain serotonin, leading to depression?
- In 14 of 17 long term studies of weight loss, those who lost weight died younger?
- You'd have to climb the Eiffel Tower 20 times to burn just one kilogram of fat?
In this book Dr Dale Atrens explains his radical theories for health, weight and wellbeing. He shows that only by rejecting current notions of diet, exercise and health can we achieve our goals. This book cuts through the myths and fallacies of the weight loss industry and shows that there is a viable alternative that allows us to eat deliciously, lose weight and live longer.
