Title: Two Thumbs WAAAAAY Up!!
Review: 2000 years ago man thought Earth was the center of the universe. 400 years ago the world was flat; some people who questioned this wisdom were even burned at the stake for heresy. Before the beginning of 19th century engineers thought man would "disintegrate" if he exceeded 100 mph, hence train speed was limited on purpose. Just 20 years ago "high-carb" diets were supposed to help people improve their well-being. Well, we know the disastrous epidemic the high-carb diet did to our Nation - 60% overweight! We Americans are so fat that the western hemisphere created a planetary imbalance, skewing the earth's rotation about its axis. So there, forget global warming. The world's climate has drastically changed because we are literally heavy on this side of the globe. How's that for a theory, Al Gore?? All kidding aside, what I'm getting at is that you should approach this book (as well as life in general) with an open mind.I am a hardcore bodybuilder, and yes, I have been on the high-fat, high protein, low carb diet for a while now. If there is anything that the sedentary general population can learn from us bodybuilders, it is that we are vain, and we love to look at ourselves in the mirror. But more significantly, we are experts at building muscle and losing fat. Many bodybuilders may not have the credentials on paper with those fancy letters, such as a BS, an ABC, an MD or a PhD. But trust me, we know fat loss. And I am here to tell you that "Protein Power" works.The reason I bought this book is that I wanted to understand the "why's." I already know "low-carb" works; I just wanted to know for myself the scientific reasons behind it. The doctors go in great detail explaining why and how. The science behind the "low-carb" concept is explained in a level that 8th graders can understand. The doctors did an excellent job. In addition to the easy-to-understand format, but well-researched and scientific findings the book outlines, I love the fact that the doctors were kind enough to include a recipe section. Yummy!!Chances are if you are reading this section in Amazon, it is because you wish to lose weight. In closing, I'd like to offer the following:There are four pillars to losing weight. They are: a) your mind; b) weight training; c) cardio exercise; and, d) nutrition.a) Your mind. You have to believe that you can do it. Whether you think you can or you can't, you're right. There are no magic pills that you can take and melt the fat off when you wake up the next day. YOU HAVE TO WORK HARD!! And don't blame genetics. Take accountability for your own lifestyle. Once you understand and accept this, you are on your way to losing fat.b) Weight training. You should consider adding weight training to your regimen. You want to keep and / or add muscles. Muscles burn fat due to increased metabolic rate. You don't want to "lose weight" by losing both fat and muscle. That's another thing. You should focus on "fat loss" and not "weight loss." I'm not saying you should be a bodybuilder, all I am saying is that weight training is an effective fat burner. Get yourself an Accu-Measure caliper (also sold at Amazon for $20) so you can measure fat loss on a weekly basis.c) Cardio. You will lose fat if you create a calorie deficit. You can do this in two ways. You can either burn the calories by doing cardio, OR you can consume less calories by eating less food. BUT, and here is a big BUTT (pun intended), the best way to burn fat is eat a little less AND exercise more.You can certainly lose weight just by consuming less calories without exercising, but you will be a "skinny fat person." You know, those dudes with a low body weight, but little if any muscle, and the last 15 pounds of stubborn fat is left defiantly clinging to their hips and butt.d) Nutrition. Read "Protein Power." This is perhaps the only fat loss book you will ever need.I wish you the best of luck in your quest to have a leaner, meaner physique. HOOAH! (It's an Army thing.)

Title: The authors leave no doubt: this is the healthiest way to eat!
Review: And very fortunately, the best way to loose weight! As Voltaire said: "Every man is the creature of the age in which he lives; very few are able to raise themselves above the ideas of the time." One need only read the negative reviews of this book to see an illustration of this phenomenon. Most physicians, laymen, government groups and medical groups following the well worn path of least resistance, have parroted the accepted collective wisdom of the "establishment" mouthpieces: our diets should be based on a low fat paradigm. The only problem is they are wrong, dead wrong as it turns out. And in their bovine refusal to acknowledge the evidence demonstrating conclusively the failure of their approach they have done a grave disservice to the public. That's us folks!I am a physician. All my professional life I was steeped in the disinformation regarding low fat diets. And I kept getting fatter and fatter and fatter. Then a friend told me about the low carbohydrate approach to loosing weight. At first I scoffed and rejected out of hand such an outlandish diet. But finally, desperation forced me to at least take a look at this "counterintuitive" approach.And I was delighted that I did! I managed to loose a whopping 16 pounds the first two weeks of the diet. Needless to say I was and am flabbergasted! But my weight loss has slowed substantially since those first two weeks and I am reading the Eades book more carefully in an attempt to get back on track. In particular I've just started limiting my portion size and making sure I don't eat too much protein. This seems to have kick started my weight loss and I am merrily on my way. Remember, restricting portion sizes and protein levels is NOT difficult since fats have the effect of producing satiety and since you are no longer ingesting carbs your insulin levels are no longer whipsawing your glucose levels. In other words, your food is not longer sabotaging your diet! Your food is actually working FOR you instead of against you.And how does the diet accomplish this miraculous feat? By harnessing the body's own physiology to work in concert with your objectives. Sort of like letting the body have YOUR own way! The objective of the Eades approach (and all low carb approaches) is to reign in the out of control insulin levels which can wreak havoc with your body and health causing hypertension, heart disease, hyperlipidemia (high blood cholesterol), and excessive fat storage (obesity!).Many have stated that when they go off the diet they gain the weight back. Well DUH! This is a practical and lifelong approach to keeping the weight off. But you must restrict the amount of carbs in your diet for this approach to work. Otherwise you'll be back to your old addictive habits in no time with all the attendant health risks.I ingest fewer carbs than are allowed by the Eades and find I am able to more easily stay on this dietary plan. By increasing my carb levels I am simply "playing with fire." I am VERY susceptible to the siren's song of carbohydrates. By reducing my portion size and amount of protein I seem to have accelerated the weight loss.Now there are those naysayers who whine and bellyache that they can't stay on the diet or that they feel too deprived or that they are nauseous, or that they are weak or blah, blah, blah blah blah. THESE symptoms are due to WITHDRAWAL from carbohydrates and it is your body trying to sabotage your dietary changes. Hang in there! And then there are some (VERY few) on whom the diet does not work. Honestly we shouldn't be surprised since quite obviously not all physiologies are alike! But for the overwhelming majority, this diet works great. If you love to eat, hate to count calories, want to improve your overall health and want an approach that WILL work and more importantly that you CAN LIVE with - then this is the diet for you.I've willingly accepted the benefits of this dietary approach and understand that in order to maintain my health and weight I must eat like this for the remainder of my life. The first step for you will be to accept the fact that you are a carboholic! But by going cold turkey, you will gain control of your cravings within 2 to 21 (only in rare cases) days.Oh, I almost forgot to mention. I feel great. No more post meal energy crashes. And I feel 20 years younger. I honestly had forgotten how easily I used to move around. You owe it to yourself and your loved ones to at least read this book. And if you don't find the Eades approach to your liking there are plenty of other low carb approaches: Atkins, Neanderthin, South Beach, Carbohydrate Addict's Diet, and Sugar Busters. In my opinion, the best are Atkins and Protein Power.Good luck, and keep an open mind. It may just set you free.

Review: A tese central do livro é que a maioria dos problemas metabólicos (alteração do colesterol, do triglicérides, da glicemia, obesidade etc) são causados pelo excesso de insulina. Esta, por sua vez, pode ser controlada somente através da dieta, uma vez que não existe medicamento para isso.Os autores defendem que a dieta rica em proteínas e restrita em carboidratos é a mais indicada para controlar a insulina, daí o título "Protein Power". Apesar da fundamentação científica, discordo neste aspecto. O ser humano pode adaptar-se a qualquer dieta que não seja processada/industrializada: a evidência disso é que existem vegetarianos, veganos, adeptos da dieta paleolítica, da cetogênica etc muito saudáveis e vivem por bastante tempo. Por outro lado, independentemente da dieta adotada, se comermos demais teremos problemas, uma vez que o corpo será obrigado a produzir mais insulina para converter o alimento em energia e para "guardar" o excesso. Daí o acerto da tese central do livro: a necessidade de se reduzir os níveis de insulina.

Review: Este libro pertenece a la corriente existente hoy en día dentro del fitness, nutrición y salud que aboga por restringir los hidratos de carbono, desmentir las maldades de las grasas saturadas y promover lo que llaman "la dieta natural del ser humano", conocida ahora por paleodieta, aunque el libro está escrito en los noventa, muchos años antes de este nuevo hype. De hecho la palabra paleodieta no aparece en el libro.Explica paso a paso cómo contruir una dieta baja en hidratos de carbono, con tres fases: la primera o más restrictiva, la de transición, en la que aumentan algo los hidratos permitidos, y la de mantenimiento. También explica cómo calcular el requerimiento adecuado de proteínas para cada persona basándose en su masa magra, y da consejos, trucos y ejemplos para la dieta. Pero no sólo eso, también explica las razones por las cuales los autores, un matrimonio de médicos experto en nutrición, piensan que esta dieta y no otras es la solución a las enfermedades de la vida moderna: hipertensión, dislipidemia y diabetes. Esta dieta ataca de raíz la causa de todos esos males, lo que ellos llaman la auténtica cabeza de la Hydra: la hiperinsulinemia, o los niveles crónicos altos de insulina que muchos sufrimos debido a la alimentación del mundo moderno occidental, tan rica en hidratos de carbono, y pobre en proteínas.Es un libro que enseña a cada página, imprescindible para todo aquel interesado en nutrición, entrenadores personales, médicos o simples curiosos en el tema.
