526 pages indexed with red plastic comb binding for easy page turning. Completely revised and updated, Joseph C. Piscatella's Controlling Your Fat Tooth provides specific, practical, usable advice on stripping fat from our diets by employing a special fat budget. With menus, tips, and over 200 delicious recipes from Bernie Piscatella-each with an updated nutritional breakdown-it's every American's antidote to a national epidemic. Piscatella, a nutritionist, lays out some foundations for controlling the fat tooth. This is a more sensible approach to eating than total abstinence, which seems bound to fail. In two parts: The American Diet and Its Consequences and How To Beat the Odds In A Pro-Fat Environment. The first part attempts to make the reader understand about the fat that we all love, and the second part, gives out some great recipes and advice on lowering intake of fat--not cutting it out. Put yourself on a fat budget and the weight will fade away and the health will bloom! Not just for you--for your whole family.…
