According to Schwarzbein, the high-carbohydrate, low-fat, moderate-protein diet that most dieticians and disease-prevention organizations recommend is the culprit that turns people into diabetics, makes them age faster and get degenerative diseases, and keeps them fat and unhealthy. She supports her theory with case studies of people who were sick and miserable on high-carbo, low-fat diets and who sprang to life when they "balanced" their diets with more fat and protein. Schwarzbein recommends avoiding "man-made carbohydrates"--processed carbs--in favor of those you could "pick, gather or milk." She instructs patients to eat "as much good fat as their body needs": eggs, avocados, flaxseed oil, butter, mayonnaise, and olive oil.

Dieting is hard for most of us, downright impossible for a few. We can all use a little help from some detailed information, and the words of wisdom found in a good book. With a specific medical condition we need to know as much as possble about the condition, so our diet will be a help rather than a hindrance.
Merely trying to lose weight is hard enough. Losing weight while staying healthy and happy is even harder. But I know it's possible. The Schwarzbein Principle: The Truth About Weight Loss, Health and Aging by Diana Schwarzbein can help.
