Self-Help Diet
Following on the heels of his hugely popular blockbuster,
The 5-Factor Diet, celebrity trainer and nutritionist Harley
Pasternak has searched the world to add a little variety and
spice to your weight loss plan. The 5-Factor World Diet
takes the 5-Factor principle–five meals a day, five core
ingredients, five-minute prep time–and incorporates the best
foods and nutritional habits from ten of the world's
healthiest countries.While jetting to exotic locales with
some of Hollywood's biggest stars as their personal health
and fitness expert, Pasternak has sampled local cuisine from
many corners of the world. Consequently he has made a
fascinating discovery: the farther he journeyed from the
United States, the easier it was to seek out foods that were
both nourishing and slimming. Now he reveals the
international diet secrets of the world's healthiest people,
including• the self-control technique used by the Japanese
that prevents them from overeating.• the trick to combating
heart disease in France (it's not just the wine).• the
reason Swedes stay slim and trim year round and have among
the highest average life expectancies (80.74 years).• the
key to Singapore' s low obesity rate (less than 2%).• an
explanation why notorious food-loving Italians are among the
healthiest people in the worldPasternak also shares helpful
advice about ordering in restaurants, as well as
pantry-stocking and cooking tips. With suggested menus and
more than 120 delicious recipes–from Japanese Chicken
Yakatori and French Ratatouille to Chapchae Korean Stirfry
and Oven Baked Swedish Meatballs– The 5-Factor World Diet
will keep you healthy, fit, and looking your absolute best.
