Synopsis

A clear practical guide to diets that do work and why they work. From food combining to detoxing to an ayurvedic approach, you can work out which healthy eating plan is the best for your body type.

Dieting has become a way of life for many people, but often with negative results. Instead of losing weight, their weight yo-yos and as they get older, it becomes harder to lose weight.

With obesity on the increase, even amongst children, it is vital we choose eating plans that are sensible, healthy and long term.

Everybody is different, some people have fast metabolisms, some have slow metabolisms. This book will help you identify your body type and help you choose an eating plan that is right for you.

Gem Diets gives a clear outline of various healthy eating plans, explains why they help you to lose weight, and provides sample menus and meals.

About this title

Review:

Amazon review for the previous edition: Gem Dieting

‘This book covers a very wide range of topics for such a small volume. It doesn’t skip basic things that you need to know, and it goes into a surprising amount of depth (eg on the value and practicality of different forms of exercise). I particularly liked the way that the author gives you the main point of a very wide range of dieting theories and then allows you to choose your own preference – very different from the ‘My way is the only way’ approach of many diet books.’
