Reseña del libro "Weight Loss Medical Cookbook (Volume 2) (en Inglés)"
Volume II: Black and white interior printing Obesity is a modern world epidemic. This condition stems from and is supported by social, economic and cultural conditioning that often begins in the earliest years of life. The shocking number of obese children continues to grow, with no long-range plan in sight that could effectively reduce this frightening statistic. We see this trend contributing to soaring healthcare costs, as more people enter adulthood with their health already compromised. In order for obese patients to recover their health, a change in lifestyle centered on getting the right nutrition becomes an indispensable prescription. This, of course, may be a challenge to accomplish without a step-by-step program that includes food preparation and nutritional techniques that support the body. The way we eat and what we eat becomes habitual and "easy to live with" over time, while change takes a level of commitment and certainly effort. Changes in lifestyle and nutritional regimens require a strong incentive. We have observed that the patient's desire to be well becomes a compelling driving force for these changes. However, it is not necessary to become sick to understand that obesity is the underlying cause of other inflammatory, degenerative and metabolic conditions. That is why a good diet can be an effective preventive measure for many diseases. Through research and observing results with patients, the authors chose the Mediterranean diet as the healthiest foundation for this cookbook and guide. During the last decade, the Mediterranean diet has been scientifically studied for it's healthy weight-loss benefits. This diet, in spite of its high fat content (from"good oils"), has been shown to be very effective when compared to other diets. This information has allowed Dr. Durand's medical clinic to place emphasis on culinary and nutritional education, which has permitted many patients to recover their health and restore their active state of life. You can restore your health and slim down with Dr. Durand's prescribed meal plan, based on the foundational research and success of the Mediterranean Diet. The Weight Loss Medical Cookbook includes an easy-to-follow 30-day menu of 3 complete daily gourmet meals based on medical and nutritional information, PLUS optional meal plan ingredients personalized for 9 specific health conditions (including diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, gout, etc.).
