For years experts have told us that eating fat is bad. But by banning fat from our diets, we've deprived ourselves of considerable health benefits -- and have sabotaged our efforts to lose weight. Nutritionist Jonny Bowden and physician Steven Masley independently came to the same conclusion about why so many people continually fail to shed pounds and get healthy. They explain the amazing properties of healthy fat, including its ability to balance hormones for increased energy and appetite control, and its incredible anti-inflammatory benefits. The solution for slimming down -- and keeping the pounds off for life -- is to "smart-fat" your meals, incorporating smart fats with fiber, protein, and most importantly, flavor. The authors identify smart fats, explain what not to eat, and provide a thirty-day meal plan and fifty recipes based on the magic formula of fat, fiber, protein, and flavor. It's time to unlearn what we think we know about food. Trans fats will stop your heart. The safe amount of trans fats in the human diet is zero. And lowering the levels of inflammatory omega-6 fats in relation to the good omega-3 fats is crucial to your health. Sugary foods lead to quick spikes in blood sugar, insulin resistance, fat accumulation, inflammation, and, well, death. We've beem blaming the wrong thing for our epidemic of obesity. The butler didn't do it and neither did the fat. It was -- and is -- the sugar and other hidden forms of refined carbohydrates. Getting smart about fat and learning to smart-fat your meals is the only solution you'll ever need. Steven Masley, M.D., is a nutritionist and trained chef. Jonny Bowden is a nutritionist and personal trainer."--Provided by publisher.
