With over 30 per cent of women and 20 per cent of men in the UK on a diet at any given time and with rates of childhood obesity soaring there has never been a greater need for a complete and informed guide to dieting. This new edition of Judith Wills' bestselling Diet Bible has been completely updated with the most recent statistics, government guidelines and nutritional information. The first section of the book covers all aspects of weight, diet and body shape, in question and answer format; it also explains new concepts, terms and procedures such as 'Glycaemic Load' and 'smartlipo'. The second section is a handy A-Z listing of diet products, methods and programmes as well as examining the latest on such subjects as tea, coffee and chocolate. There is additional information on new drugs and natural supplements for weight loss. In addition the book evaluates various well-known diets including very low fat diets and those most appropriate for vegetarians. With all the latest thinking and the inclusion of completely new and most recently popular diets this is the book with all the answers to the increasingly vexed question of how to lose weight healthily and keep the pounds off.
