The Hershberg Diet is not another fad diet, it’s a weight loss system based on hard science. Dr. Melissa Hershberg reveals that the key to lasting weight loss is the “fourth macronutrient.” Because most people — including physicians, nutritionists, and dieticians — recognize only three — protein, carbohydrates, and fat — the discovery of a fourth macronutrient forever changes the way readers view food, eating, and nutritional labels. In addition, readers learn about “hotty” foods — foods that don’t spike blood sugar and insulin levels but which do elevate the body’s metabolism and create the proper hormonal environment for weight loss. The book features an easy-to-follow four-phase plan complete with recipes and menus, as well as tips to help readers design their own customized strategy for shedding pounds. Best of all, there is no hunger or deprivation required. By eating foods high in the fourth macronutrient, readers can eat as much as they like and still lose weight.

This review is from: The Hershberg Diet: Discover How the Fourth Macro Can Help You Shed Pounds and Beat the Metabolic Syndrome (Hardcover)
I read about this diet in a Woman's World issue and finally purchased the book. It is a wonderful way of eating and makes much more sense than other diets which eliminate things such as carbs and fats. Highly recommend and easy to follow. I lost 9 pounds on the first two weeks and I hadn't even started exercising yet.

One Basic Insight,

This review is from: The Hershberg Diet: Discover How the Fourth Macro Can Help You Shed Pounds and Beat the Metabolic Syndrome (Hardcover)
This book's central insight can be stated in one sentence - eat foods that are not calorie dense, which means foods that have lots of water. Water = bulk with no calories. That's it. Otherwise it gives pretty good, standard diet advice, except that Dr. Hershberg believes artificial sweeteners are not harmful. BIG mistake! I've found other books more helpful - The Schwarzbein Principle, anything by Dr. Mercola.

This review is from: The Hershberg Diet: Discover How the Fourth Macro Can Help You Shed Pounds and Beat the Metabolic Syndrome (Hardcover)
I followed the diet in this book and so far have lost 45 pounds. I feel the purchase was worth it. It's easy to follow, calls for common foods and explains why these are good for you. I intend to keep on following this book's diet. I know I can continue on this diet and will succeed plus its a lifestyle not just a diet.
