Lose weight and get in shape with THE PLANT-POWERED DIET.
Hundreds of studies lead to this one conclusion: the healthiest diet on the planet is a plant-based diet. Eating a balanced diet focussed on nutrient-rich fruits, vegetables, grains and nuts, with less of a focus on animal protein, can protect against heart disease, cancer, obesity and other modern plagues. The aim is health as well as weight-loss.
Now, for everyone from omnivores who want to cut back on meat and eat more vegetables, to vegetarians looking to benefit even more from the healthiest plant foods, THE PLANT-POWERED DIET meets all readers where they are, explains the dramatic benefits of eating more plants, and provides an all-in-one guide to re-engineering one's diet, day by day, with it's easy-to-follow, prescriptive diet plan.
Sharon Palmer, a nationally recognized nutrition expert, gives readers the low-down on nutrient-packed plant proteins, whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and plant fats - as well as herbs, spices, chocolate, coffee, tea, and wine. Then she explains exactly how to take the "powerful plants plunge," with a realistic 14-day plan guiding readers through the supermarket, the kitchen, making school lunches, ordering in restaurant, healthy eating on-the-go, exercise, and more - culminating with 75 original recipes, for every meal.
