by Neal Barnard (Author), Dustin Harder (With), Lindsay S. Nixon (With)

From a leading nutrition researcher, this diet book offers easy to follow guidance and meal plans so you can lose the weight and keep it off--without depriving yourself the way other diets require.

As a society, we keep looking for ways to lose weight--preferably ones that are simple, effective, and permanent. When properly chosen, certain foods cause weight loss, with no need for restriction and calorie counting.

In The Power Foods Diet, Dr. Neal Barnard reveals three breakthroughs that are supported by research, revealing that certain foods:

1. Reduce the appetite.
2. Trap calories so they are flushed away and cannot be absorbed.
3. Increase the body's ability to burn calories for three hours after meals.

Dr. Barnard includes a simple to follow meal plan that includes delicious, and even indulgent recipes so that you can enjoy your meals while releasing weight.
