Backed by solid scientific research and the author’s keen insight into the dynamics of physiology, nutrition and metabolism, nutritionist Chris Aceto proves there is an alternative to diets that are... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I found this book fantastic. I loved the simple language and complete coverage of everything that a body builder needs. The only problem is that the recipes have Mrs Dash. I live in Australia and we don't have Mrs Dash. But I substitute. It all made sense to me after reading this book. Highly recommend for any bodybuilder or over weight person.

You know what they say "you can't judge a book by it's cover" ... but it was the cover that first caught my attention...then the title. I have read so many diet books and none have motivated me like this book. The writting style was easy for me to follow and I especially loved how they supported their concepts with the medical journal notes. The low carb diet may seem extreme but I felt I needed to take extreme measures as everything had failed. I couldn't put the book down and read it in one night. I jumped into the diet program the next morning and I have never looked back. YES...successfully losing 15lbs in just 6 weeks...and more exciting is that I didn't starve, to my surprsing I truly enjoyed the great tasting meals. 5 stars to Chris and Catherine for helping find the way to a permanent full proof fat loss formula. You can be sure I have spread the word to all my friends...I counldn't help it as they all wanted to know my secret.Cheers!Anna CalderPresident, NowPac Inc.Toronto, Canada

I was not really a fat kid, but I have struggled with my weight since I was a teenager and after I married, the weight started to come on and on. I felt bad and the extra weight put a wedge between me and my wife. I just couldn't stop eating. I snacked all day at work and guzzled soda like it was water. Now, after reading The Low Carb Rule & Recipe Book I am just psyched at the changes my body has gone through. I've lost 40 pounds in 6 months with another 70 to go. People already don't recognize me. I feel better, my wife is happy and I am NEVER HUNGRY!
Life changing for me!

A few months ago, as I was feeling totally bummed out because no matter how much effort I was putting into watching my weight, I never got the results I wanted. I felted completely helpless. The scale never moved and my clothes remained tight. I did some research on low carb dieting and came across The Low Carb Rule & Recipe Book. I've lost 29 pounds in 8 weeks, I'm never hungry, I feel better and more energetic and I love the recipes in this book. If your frustrated, I strongly recommend this book for you. It is packed with easy to understand low carb facts and instruction from how to get started to how to maintain your weight loss. If you've heard about low carb dieting and don't know the in's and outs so to speak, then get this book.
yummy!

All the low carbohydrate diet books out there are pretty thorough as is this one. But, this book not only explains in greater detail why low carbohydrate diets works, it is tremendously- and I mean tremendously easy to understand. The 225 recipes. Some are repeats of other low carb books. More meat, more chicken etc...but there are some worth the price of the book. Overall I liked the book
