The G.I. Diet: The Easy, Healthy
Way to Permanent Weight Loss
Way to Permanent Weight Loss
you can understand this diet--and lose weight
permanently without feeling hungry, counting
calories, or jeopardizing your health. If a food is
in the green column, eat it. If it's in the red
column, avoid it. And if it's in the yellow column,
proceed with caution. Take bread, for example.
White bread, with its high G.I. number, is
red-because it's so highly processed the body
digests it quickly, resulting in a spike in blood
sugar, a release of insulin, potential storage as
fat, and a quick return of the hungry feeling.
Low-G.I. 100% stone-ground whole-wheat bread
is green-the body takes a while to digest it, with
no spike in blood sugar and a much longer
feeling of satiety. Green, yellow, red: It's all here,
with a full explanation of how the diet works, plus
ratings for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks,
eating out or eating in. Includes some recipes,
snack ideas, a shopping list, and tips on dining
out.

your body. Leptin is your body’s natural weight-loss
mechanism: it curbs your appetite and jump-starts
your metabolism. And when those hormones are
working properly, they make you literally fat
resistant! You will lose weight effortlessly and
efficiently, and never gain those pounds back.
A leading expert in the field of nutritional medicine,
Dr. Leo Galland knows that if you’ve struggled to
lose weight on diet after diet but still can’t shake
those excess pounds, chances are you are “leptin
resistant”—your body no longer responds to leptin,
making it impossible to slim down, no matter what
size portions or how few carbs you eat. But here’s
the good news: by adding the right foods to your
diet, you can quickly reverse leptin resistance and
reprogram your body to start melting away the
pounds.
The Fat Resistance Diet is the first weight-loss plan
designed specifically to combat leptin resistance,
using a unique combination of anti-inflammatory
and hormone-balancing foods to get your
hormones working again. Used by hundreds of Dr.
Galland’s patients with remarkable results, the
three-phase regimen includes:
STAGE 1: A fourteen-day starter program that
delivers a loss of ten to fourteen pounds in the first
two weeks. Inflammation-fighting superfoods work to
trigger rapid weight loss and set your hormones
straight.
STAGE 2: A ninety-day plan that builds on the
benefits of Stage 1 and delivers a loss of at least
five pounds a month. You can enjoy a greater
variety of foods while still keeping your hormones
working overtime.
STAGE 3: Sustainable for life, the meal plans in this
phase keep your hormones doing their job, even
after you reach your target weight, and offer an
expanded, flavorful menu.
With delicious recipes that are rich in healing carbs,
healing fats, and powerful phytonutrients, the diet is
a breeze to stick with—there are no hard-to-find
ingredients, no expensive supplements, and no
complicated proportions to figure out. Best of all,
when you make the Fat Resistance Diet part of
your life, your hormones will do your weight-loss
work for you! This groundbreaking program at last
reveals the true secret to weight loss success, and
will transform you from a chronic dieter into a lean,
fat-fighting machine.

tightly balances the intake of protein, good
(low-glycemic) carbohydrates and a moderate
amount of monounsaturated fats, Sears is among
those current weight-control specialists (e.g., Drs.

is a chronic state of acidity in the body (a pH value below 7.1). Shifting the body’s

The goal outlined by the Youngs in this book is to replace dieting with a 12-week,
seven-step program that is intended to not only rejuvenate the entire body by replacing current blood cells
with blood cells "at the peak of health," but also to create an ongoing lifestyle that will permanently keep off
the pounds that were shed during the 12-week period. In addition to a rich section on eating tips to create
more alkalinity in the body (complete with an extensive list of recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
menus), the book also covers the importance of adequate water drinking, proper exercise, important
nutritional supplements, learning how to manage thoughts and emotions that can contribute to acidity, goal-
setting, and, for optimum results, a two-week cleansing program. In support of the program, the book also
includes a collection of testimonials from people who have achieved significant weight loss on the
program—further backed up by before-and-after photographs. With an increasing number of health
professionals now emphasizing the importance of proper pH to overall health, the information this book
presents is both timely and fairly easy to implement. Larry Trivieri Jr.

pounds and women on average nineteen to
twenty pounds per month! The Rice Diet also
detoxes your body, ridding it of excess water
weight and toxins from processed foods and the
environment. The program's results have been
documented by extensive studies and confirmed
by thousands of people who report amazing
weight loss, as well as immediate improve-ment in
such conditions as heart disease, diabetes, and
hypertension. After all the other diets out there
have failed them, people find that the Rice Diet is
the one that finally works -- for good.
Here's how it works: The Rice Diet strictly limits
salt and sodium-rich ingredients. Salt, like refined
sugar, is an appetite stimulant, so when you
reduce salt intake, you lose water weight and are
less inclined to overeat. The Rice Diet also limits
saturated fats and instead relies on
carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables, grains, and
beans) as the main source of nutrition. The fiber
cleanses your system and satisfies you so you
feel full quickly. The Rice Diet makes it easy to
limit calories; when you're eating foods that truly
satisfy your hunger, it's a challenge to eat 1,500
calories per day!
To make it easy to follow the program, The Rice
Diet Solution includes hundreds of tasty, filling,
easy-to-prepare recipes -- some from the Rice
House kitchen, others inspired by major chefs
and adapted to Rice Diet standards.
The Rice Diet is not just an eating plan. It's a
physical, emotional, and spiritual program that
will change the way you live, giving you new
vitality, energy, and longevity. Ricers report that
the Rice Diet not only helps them solve weight
problems they've struggled with their whole lives
but also teaches them a whole new way of
healthier, more mindful living.
Whether you want to lose twenty pounds or two
hundred, the Rice Diet can help you do it --
finally and forever.

Here's how it works: The Rice Diet strictly limits
salt and sodium-rich ingredients. Salt, like refined
sugar, is an appetite stimulant, so when you
reduce salt intake, you lose water weight and are
less inclined to overeat. The Rice Diet also limits
saturated fats and instead relies on
carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables, grains, and
beans) as the main source of nutrition. The fiber
cleanses your system and satisfies you so you
feel full quickly. The Rice Diet makes it easy to
limit calories; when you're eating foods that truly
satisfy your hunger, it's a challenge to eat 1,500
calories per day!
To make it easy to follow the program, The Rice
Diet Solution includes hundreds of tasty, filling,
easy-to-prepare recipes -- some from the Rice
House kitchen, others inspired by major chefs
and adapted to Rice Diet standards.
The Rice Diet is not just an eating plan. It's a
physical, emotional, and spiritual program that
will change the way you live, giving you new
vitality, energy, and longevity. Ricers report that
the Rice Diet not only helps them solve weight
problems they've struggled with their whole lives
but also teaches them a whole new way of
healthier, more mindful living.
Whether you want to lose twenty pounds or two
hundred, the Rice Diet can help you do it --
finally and forever.

excuses, they will work hard and they will suffer
setbacks, but they will also change their lives for
the better. Her "3-S" (Self, Science and Sweat) plan
covers the mental and physical, and Michaels
dedicates equal sections of the book to each. In
Self, she announces to readers that she was an
"overweight and unhappy teenager" who took
charge of her life, challenging readers to do the
same. While no book has the power to change a
person, the tips Michaels provides-create a support
system, keep a journal, change your self-talk-do. In
Science, Michaels dispels common diet myths
(skipping meals is best, diet pills work), provides
recipes for meals and snacks and introduces the
concept of fast-, slow- and balanced-oxidizers,
which determines a person's ideal diet. The final
Sweat chapters include easy-to-follow exercises
accompanied by photos, and a five-day-per-week,
12-week fitness program centered on
burn-and-tone cardio training. The book and
coaching come relatively cheap, but to follow the
program without substitution exercises, readers will
need access to a gym or a weight machine. And,
unfortunately, Michaels does not make house calls.
