Dr. Clower is a neurophysiologist and neuroscience historian at the University of Pittsburgh. He obtained his Ph.D. from Emory University in Atlanta, and spent two years as a Research Fellow at the Institute of Cognitive Science in Lyon, France.
We know the French are thin. We know they eat exquisite foods, live longer than us, and yet don t have our desperate troubles with weight and heart disease. The Fat Fallacy makes a very basic point: the same diet that keeps them thin can work for us just as well.
At the heart of this delightful, entertaining narrative is a core observation fat free diets have failed us. Americans have dutifully followed this dietary dogma, only to see the obesity epidemic explode before our eyes.
In The Fat Fallacy, Dr. Clower explains why we need not be locked into the failing strategies of the fat free theories. He serves up a long overdue treat of common sense that reintroduces enjoyment and satisfaction as the very goal of eating. More importantly, he provides easy to follow, practical guidelines to apply the French diet in our hurried and harried American life.
· In clear, everyday language, he explains the swamp of nutritionist controversies, and the science behind the success of the sumptuous French diet.
· He equips us to apply the French diet to lose weight, reduce our risk of heart disease and, in the process, develop a better relationship with our food.
· The Fat Fallacy educates us on the importance of eating real foods, not Faux-Foods, and how to tell the difference.
· Dr. Clower offers delicious recipes tailored to the busy family. These include both elegant, easy-to-prepare weeknight meals as well as weekend cooking sprees that take a bit more time but are well worth the wait.
· He encourages us to give the family meal the importance it deserves, and abandon the distractions that trivialize our food and lead to overeating.
This refreshing book makes the French diet accessible to everyone no more counting calories, measuring portions, or popping magical diet pills. More to the heart of the matter, The Fat Fallacy diet is a joy to start and easy to maintain. The result is a healthier, thinner and more satisfying life for ourselves and our children. It is the last diet you ll ever need.
Bon Appetit!!
