The Step Diet Book (English)

Description

Instead of offering the traditional, restrictive dieting advice, THE STEP DIET BOOK offers a fresh and encouraging approach to health. This system encourages the reader to practice the healthiest and most accessible exercise of all: walking. NIH obesity expert James O. Hill, and coauthors John C. Peters and Bonnie T. Jortberg, also experts in nutrition and weight control, present a complete program, along with a pedometer to add precision to this simple yet beneficial activity. The authors have based their advice on the concept of balancing energy taken in with energy going out, teaching the reader to count steps rather than obsessing over carbs or fat grams. This proactive approach to health begins with a count of the average number of steps taken in a day, and then increases that number daily, while also measuring food eaten in terms of the equivalent steps. (For instance, ordering a small order of fries vs. a large order saves 6,520 steps.) The advice in THE STEP DIET BOOK includes practical, simple eating changes that, along with easy-to-attain walking challenges, can inspire the reader to transform his or her life in a permanent, positive way.
