Description - Truth About Diets by Jean Ford
In America today, excess weight and obesity are increasing at alarming rates. The resulting public health crisis has spawned a multi-billion-dollar industry, diet products that promise miraculous solutions to excess weight. This year, Americans will ingest approximately $2.4 billion worth of prepackaged weight-loss meals like Lean Cuisine and NutriSystem, $1.7 billion in shakes like Slim-Fast and snack bars like Zone, and then wash it all down with $15 billion worth of diet soda. That doesn't even begin to count all the books, magazines, club memberships, 'miracle' drugs, and other products Americans will purchase. Whether they truly suffer from a weight problem or just believe they would look better if they lost weight, millions of Americans are scrambling desperately for weight-loss solutions. And yet, as a society, America is still getting fatter. In this book you will learn the truth about the diet industry: the vast majority of these products are not part of the solution; they're part of the problem. Along the way, you will also learn why individuals' focus should be on good health, not weight loss and what the best approach is for truly achieving that goal.
