Self-Help Diet
Kick-start weight loss and boost beauty with an easy
4-day cleanse and a delicious 4-week antioxidant-based
program from CBS’s The Early Show nutrition contributor In
The O2 Diet, nutritionist Keri Glassman translates
cutting-edge science into an easy-to-do program that will
leave dieters energetic, healthy, and beautiful— inside and
out. Glassman shows how dieters can—and should—indulge in
foods like Caramelized Pear and Pecan French Toast and Flank
Steak with Chimichurri Sauce and actually lose
weight! For once, it’s not about counting calories or
restricting what one eats; it’s about eating more of the
right things. The diet is based on the
ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) scale, a calculus
developed by the USD A that measures how well a food
protects against free radicals, the culprits behind many
forms of cancer, heart disease, and symptoms of aging.
Research demonstrates that eating a high- ORAC diet
increases the antioxidant power of human blood 10 to 25
percent, strengthening memory and cognition, preventing
cancer and heart disease, improving skin, and aiding in
weight loss. The O2 Cleanse kicks
things off, maximizing weight loss, inspiring confidence,
and delivering immediate results. The 4-week plan builds on
initial success and includes simple guidelines for pampering
and stress reduction that are proven to enhance weight loss.
Plus it gives dieters real-world options for eating out and
recipes that allow them to indulge at home with treats such
as Chocolate-Covered Pecans and Sangria. This simple program
is a positive, empowering new way to approach eating that
will leave readers slim, sated and beautiful.
