Synopsis

Eat right for your metabolic type. Each food has a different ‘burn rate’: carbs, proteins and fats are burned over different time intervals and your own body too has its own metabolic rate. Find out what to eat and when to eat it.

The Burn Rate Diet is an innovative weight loss program which uses the latest scientific information about metabolism and nutrition. It allows you to match the 'burn rates' of different foods to your own personal metabolic rate or Burn Rate.
It can enable you to
· predict your exact calorie needs at any weight
· boost your energy levels
· prevent stress eating and bingeing
· calculate your personal metabolic rate
· create personalised and healthy eating plans.

The Burn Rate Diet reveals how carbohydrates, proteins and fats are burned over different time intervals and the sports nutritionist author shows us how to control our appetite by taking advantage of such burn rate differences. The dieter will also be able to determine the energy expenditure of their chosen exercise or sport and will be shown how to establish an individualised eating and exercise plan.

Certain physical changes: ageing, pregnancy, increase in muscle mass, or weight fluctuations cause changes in the Body Burn Rate. The author demonstrates that matching the right 'fuel mix' to your metabolic engine will enable you to avoid hunger, live thinner, and maintain a high energy performance.
