Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

There are plenty of diet books that tell us how to restrict fat, eliminate carbohydrates, or avoid specific combinations of food, but to date, there is very little research on the real effectiveness of these diets. In Diet Trials, a major BBC television series, the four most popular weight–loss methods are put to the test. Now, in this companion to the series, respected dietician Lyndel Costain, recently named Britain’s Health Professional of the Year, delves deeper into the causes of weight gain, explains the reasons for unhealthy attitudes towards food, and introduces simple strategies that will set you on the path to a new way of eating. Finally, she puts some of the most popular diets on trial, outlining the pros and cons of each, so that you can decide for yourself which one is right for you.
