| Publisher Description: Have you ever wondered why some meals make you feel energized and alert, while others have the opposite effect? Maybe you've noticed that certain people thrive on eating lots of meat and fat, while others do best on a low-fat vegetarian diet. Cutting-edge scientific studies show that people burn different amounts of protein, carbohydrates, and fat. The Four Seasons Diet will teach you the right way to eat for your season-type. Winter season-type: The classic "meat eater." Burns large amounts of fat, both at rest and during exercise. Thrives on a high-protein, higher-fat, lower-carb diet. Suffers from hypoglycemia if too many carbs are eaten. Tends to get fat from overeating carbs. Autumn season-type: Similar to the Winter season-type but burns less fat and more carbs for energy. Summer season-type: The classic "vegetarian." Burns large amounts of carbs, both at rest and during exercise. Thrives on a high-carb, low-fat, lower-protein diet. Suffers from low energy if too much fat is eaten. Tends to get fat from overeating fats. Spring season-type: Similar to the Summer season-type but burns more fat and fewer carbs for energy. When you eat protein, fat, and carbs in the same ratio that your body burns for energy, amazing things can happen You will: Be less hungry as you decrease your "hunger hormones" and boost your "feel-full hormones." Feel more energetic when you feed your body the fuel it prefers. Have greater mental clarity as your blood sugar stabilizes. Lose weight effortlessly when you eat foods you "burn," rather than foods you "store." Steven Capeder is an advocate for natural harmonious living, which includes being at peace with your body by eating natural foods that are most compatible with your unique constitution. Citing more than 400 medical studies and examining the latest research about fat-burning muscles vs. sugar-burning muscles, Steven has unraveled many of the mysteries behind ancient Ayurvedic medicine and the theories of Dr. George Watson. In the process, he created four unique diets, one of which is ideal for your body type. |
