For more than 30 years various versions of the so-called
"Mayo Clinic Diet" have surfaced in many forms and places,
promising to peel off pounds magically. These diets did not
originate at Mayo Clinic. Now, for the first time, Mayo Clinic offers a safe and
effective program to help you achieve and maintain the
weight that is right for you. The book emphasizes a lifestyle approach that combines a
healthy diet along with exercise to result in a 1- to 2-
pound loss each week that is considered safe and effective.
The goal is to achieve long-term changes in your food
selections and exercise habits that you can maintain for life. This new book from nutrition experts at Mayo Clinic includes
a step-by-step 12-week program to get you started on
achieving your healthy weight. The program applies the
principles of the Mayo Clinic Healthy Weight Pyramid to help
you make better decisions about what to eat and find ways to
add enjoyable exercise to your daily life. Rather than
focusing on fat or carbohydrates, Mayo Clinic Healthy Weight
for Everybody emphasizes the three factors that scientific
data link to weight and health--calorie content, a healthy
variety of foods and physical activity.
