Review

"This comprehensive, clearly written volume should be a welcome addition to both patients' and their doctors' health shelves."

First line

Bob's life began to unravel one night after he and his wife, Eleanor, finished a healthy, home-cooked dinner consisting of fresh sea bass, spinach salad, baked potato and asparagus tips, topped off with low-fat carrot cake to celebrate Bob's fifty-eighth birthday. Fish, vegetables, and low-fat dressing on the salad: just the low-fat diet the doctor recommended.

Publisher's note

Describes the potentially fatal metabolic disorder, Syndrome X, that causes elevated insulin levels, high blood sugar, the prevalence of harmful fats in the blood stream, and hypertension, leading to an increased risk of heart attack, and explains how an effective program of diet, exersize, lifestyle changes, and medication can lower that risk.

Annotation

In agreement with Dr. Atkins, Suzanne Somers, and other carbohydrate-phobics, author Gerald Reaven asserts that high-carbohydrate diets prevent weight loss and are potentially dangerous.
