About This Book
The work explains how to use caloric values and a simple key system to plan diets for gaining, losing, and maintaining weight, presenting an ideal-weight formula and lists of foods with their caloric content. It examines causes of overweight and underweight, offers practical reduction methods, addresses exercise, discusses vegetarianism versus meat eating, and supplies sample menus, testimonials, and follow-up guidance for long-term maintenance. The presentation combines prescriptive rules, definitions, and personal anecdotes to convert nutritional principles into step-by-step advice readers can apply to daily meal choices and weight control.
