Summary:
"The key to discovering your personalized diet is to test your blood sugar before and after eating the specific foods you enjoy or that you wish you could enjoy more often. This diet book explains why one-size-fits-all diets don't work and helps readers customize their diet to lose weight and improve health. There are certain things we take as universal truths when it comes to dieting and health: kale is good; ice cream is bad. Until Drs. Segal and Elinav published their research on personalized nutrition. They proved that individuals react differently to the same foods - a food that might be healthy for one person is unhealthy for another, making all universal diet programs obsolete. This book gives readers the tools to create an individualized diet and lifestyle plan (based on their reactions to favorite foods) and puts them on the path to losing weight, feeling good, and preventing disease by eating in the way that's right for them. Eran Segal, PhD, is a Professor at the Weizmann Institute of Science. Dr. Eran Elinav, MD, PhD, is a Senior Scientist at the Weizmann Institute of Science."--Provided by publisher.
