Prescription for Healthy Weight Loss & Optimum Health by Billy C. Johnson MD, PhD and Daniel Chong-Jimenez, B.S.
Looking for a way to get healthy with the added benefit of losing weight too? The Prescription for Healthy Weight Loss & Optimum Health could just be your ticket to a much healthier existence. Dr. Johnson and Mr. Chong-Jimenez have developed a life-style change that is not so restrictive that it's impossible to follow, permits transgressions, and helps one stay the course. The key is to monitor daily activity and eat according to one's daily activity level. How liberating! This puts the control back into the hands of the person working to achieve a healthy lifestyle, and removes the limitations of diets like low-carbohydrates, no-carbohydrates, high protein eating. Is it simple? Yes. Will it require some sacrifice? Yes. But then, everything worth having requires some effort, and this program may surprise you.
The UDP Weight Loss and Wellness Program, as it is called, will probably seriously shake up your current list of favorite foods, but I'll wager you'll be able to continue eating a good percentage more of what you currently like, unlike other programs. For instance, the book includes a comprehensive list of "Preferred" foods and a list of "Cautionary" foods, along with detailed explanations of why certain foods should be eaten or avoided, and the other items that should be included in one's daily diets, like vitamins, Omega-3 rich foods, and more. While weight loss is a wonderful by-product of the UDP Weight Loss and Wellness Program, it also helps one learn to eat to control symptoms like diabetes, heart disease, cholesterol, and syndrome x. Be prepared to be educated regarding correct portion sizes, how to eat in courses, the proper time to eat each meal, the healthy way to eat a variety of ethnic cuisine, and which types of foods to eat to combat depression, boost energy and reduce inflammation.
Prescription for Healthy Weight Loss & Optimum Health includes a complete 30-Day meal plan, recipes and success stories to help one catapult towards a healthier life-style. Its meal plan includes such tasty items as chicken piccata, beef and mushroom stir-fry, and baked chicken stuffed with sun-dried tomatoes and feta cheese. Does this sound like the menu of a typical diet program? Absolutely not! The recipes are not filled with expensive ingredients and are rich in flavor and full of ingredients to deliver the appropriate caloric intake level. Whether you're eating for two or one, with exercise and enough self-control to tailor food intake to one's level of daily physical activity, Prescription for Healthy Weight Loss & Optimum Health is just what Dr. Johnson and Mr. Chong-Jimenez recommend.
