With Zero Sugar Diet, #1 New York Times bestselling author David Zinczenko continues his twenty-year mission to help Americans live their happiest and healthiest lives, uncovering revolutionary new research that explains why you can’t lose weight—and shows that it’s not your fault!

But with the simple steps in Zero Sugar Diet, you’ll be able to eat all your favorite foods and strip away unnecessary sugars—losing weight at a rate of up to one pound per day, while still enjoying the sweeter things in life. By replacing empty calories with essential ones—swapping in whole foods and fiber and swapping out added sugars—you’ll conquer your cravings and prevent the blood sugar surge that leads to some of the worst health scourges in America today, including abdominal fat, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, liver disease, fatigue, and tooth decay. And all it takes is 14 days. You’ll be stunned by the reported results: Lisa Gardner, 49, lost 10 pounds Tara Anderson, 42, lost 10 pounds David Menkhaus, 62, lost 15 pounds Ricky Casados, 56, lost 12 pounds You, too, can melt away belly fat, boost your energy levels and metabolism, and take control of your health and your life, armed with a comprehensive grocery list of fresh produce, proteins, whole grains, and even prepared meals, accompanied by two weeks’ worth of fiber-rich breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack recipes and real-life results from successful Zero Sugar dieters.

Well, that got my attention.”—The New York Times Book Review “A user-friendly guide [that provides] a wealth of helpful information and tools for those wishing to limit added sugars in their diet.”—Library Journal “This plan is informative and entertaining (e.g., a chart converts common meals to their equivalent in donuts; ‘an open letter from your pancreas’) and will help readers rein in cravings and become savvy monitors of added sugar consumption.”—Publishers Weekly

You just need to up your intake of core proteins that will build more energy-burning muscle, consume the healthiest fats that help increase satiety and speed nutrients throughout your body, and reach for plenty of good-for-you carbs—yes, carbs!—that provide essential fiber.

Book Synopsis Zero Belly Diet by : David Zinczenko
Download or read book Zero Belly Diet written by David Zinczenko and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2014-12-30 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Zero Belly Diet is the revolutionary new plan to turn off your fat genes and help keep you lean for life! Nutrition expert David Zinczenko—the New York Times bestselling author of the Abs Diet series, Eat This, Not That! series, and Eat It to Beat It!—has spent his entire career learning about belly fat—where it comes from and what it does to us. And what he knows is this: There is no greater threat to you and your family—to your health, your happiness, even your financial future. Yes, you can: Change your destiny. Overcome your fat genes. Strip away belly fat and finally attain the lean, strong, healthy body you’ve always wanted. With Zero Belly Diet, David Zinczenko reveals explosive new research that explains the mystery of why some of us stay thin, and why some can’t lose weight no matter how hard we try. He explains how some foods turn our fat genes on—causing seemingly irreversible weight gain—and uncovers the nine essential power foods that act directly on those switches, turning them to “off” and allowing for easy, rapid, and sustainable weight loss. And he shows how these foods help heal your digestive system, keeping those gene switches turned off and setting you up for a lifetime of leanness. Other diets can help you lose weight, but only the Zero Belly diet attacks fat on a genetic level, placing a bull’s-eye on the fat cells that matter most: visceral fat, the type of fat ensconced in your belly. These fat cells act like an invading army, increasing inflammation and putting you at risk for diabetes, Alzheimer’s, arthritis, heart disease, and cancer. Visceral fat can also can alter your hormone levels, erode muscle tissue, increase your chances of depression, and destroy your sex drive. But you can turn the odds in your favor. Zero Belly Diet shows you how to deactivate your fat genes, rev up your metabolism, banish bloat, and balance your digestive health, allowing you to easily build lean, strong stomach muscle and strip away unwanted belly fat without sacrificing calories or spending hours at the gym. The result: weight loss that is easier, faster, more lasting, and more delicious than you’d ever imagine. You’ll be stunned and inspired by the results of an amazing 500-person test panel—men and women who lost weight quickly, and with ease, following the Zero Belly diet. In just the first 14 days: Bob McMicken, 51, lost 16.3 pounds Kyle Cambridge, 28, lost 15 pounds Martha Chesler, 54, lost 11 pounds Matt Brunner, 43, lost 14 pounds Zero Belly Diet features a week-by-week menu plan, fifty tasty recipes, and a handy shopping list that leads to a minimum of cooking and plenty of feasting. Best of all, Zero Belly Diet offers something more: freedom. Freedom from bloating, freedom from food deprivation, freedom from weight loss fads, freedom from stress. So say goodbye to your paunch and hello to a happier, healthier you!

Book Synopsis The Great Out-Lol-Doors by : Austin Dyer
Download or read book The Great Out-Lol-Doors written by Austin Dyer and published by Austin Dyer. This book was released on 2024-01-22 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The embrace of the outdoors has been the cornerstone of my existence-a profound connection that began amidst the sprawling fields surrounding my childhood home in the heart of Texas. Those vast expanses became my canvas for exploration, nurturing an innate love for nature's grandeur and the infinite adventures it offered.Transitioning from a mere enthusiast to a seasoned guide leading expeditions into the wilderness marked a transformative phase in my life. Guiding others through the backcountry became not just a profession but an extension of my very being. Over the years, I've shepherded over 10,000 individuals into the untamed wilds, accumulating an impressive tally of more than two years spent residing under the canopy of stars in the confines of a tent.Yet, as every seasoned adventurer knows, the script rarely unfolds precisely as planned. In fact, I've come to realize that approximately 90% of the time, circumstances pivot away from our meticulously charted course. Despite the unexpected twists and turns that would seemingly throw a wrench into the gears of our plans, I've maintained a steadfast belief that these deviations are the very essence of adventure itself. In those moments of deviation, I've always stressed the importance of fostering a positive attitude-a beacon that guides us through the unforeseen challenges.It was within these experiences that the seeds for my book, "Out-lol-doors," were sown. I yearned to pen a compendium not just outlining practical advice for outdoor pursuits but infusing it with a comedic lens-a fusion of laughter and wisdom aimed at illuminating the practical aspects of outdoor recreation in an engaging and entertaining manner.
