Synopsis

Millions of maturing Americans face increasing weight levels and failing health, although they eat no more than they did when they were younger. Doctors Richard and Rachael Heller have found the post-forty-year-old's "slowing metabolism" often stems from changes in insulin balance which decrease its ability to burn food energy and increase its ability to turn food energy into fat.

Drawing from their breakthrough research into the carbohydrate-insulin connection to excess weight and poor health, the Hellers offer a comprehensive, straightforward program for people over forty, including: A clear review of the impact of prescription * and over-the-counter * Weight gain and health risk factors Lifestyle alternatives for maximizing weight loss and health promotion Dozens of exciting, crave-reducing recipes Tips for eating out and eating alone For those frustrated by traditional weight-loss plans, The Carbohydrate Addict's Lifespan Program allows readers to indulge in the foods they love while reaping from the outstanding rewards. The program that forms the basis of this book is scientifically proven to work. The Carbohydrate Addict's Diet was a New York Times bestseller and has sold more than 750,000 copies.
