From the author of the major bestseller HOW NOT TO DIE comes a new look at why diets fail us - and the groundbreaking scientific research behind how a plant-based diet can maximize our fat-burning systems.

Every month seems to bring a trendy new diet or a new fad to try in order to lose weight - but these diets clearly aren't making us any healthier. As obesity rates continue to rise, and with it a growing number of diseases and impairments, it's time for a different approach.

Enter Dr. Michael Greger, the internationally-renowned nutrition expert, physician, and founder of nutrtionfacts.org. Having explored the top 15 causes of death in his bestselling HOW NOT TO DIE, Dr. Greger now turns his attention to the latest scientific research on the leading causes of obesity. He lays the groundwork by exploring the many causes of obesity - from our genes to the portions on our plate to other environmental factors - and the many consequences, from diabetes to cancer to mental health issues.

From there, Dr. Greger breaks down a variety of approaches to weight loss, honing in on the optimal criteria that enable success, including: a diet high in fiber and water, a diet low in fat, salt, and sugar, and diet full of anti-inflammatory foods.

But HOW NOT TO DIET goes beyond food to explore the many other weight-loss accelerators available to us in our body's systems, revealing how plant-based meals can be eaten at specific times to maximize our bodies' natural fat-burning activities. It provides a clear plan not only for the ultimate weight loss diet, but also the approach we must take to that diet to unlock its greatest efficacy.

Full of accessible, actionable advice and cutting-edge dietary research, HOW NOT TO DIET will put an end to dieting - and replace those constant weight-loss struggles with an easy approach to a healthy, plant-based lifestyle.

Industry Reviews

Dr. Michael Greger is one of my heroes and continues to inspire me. Why? Because he embodies personal integrity, values facts, and is one of the kindest and smartest people I know. All of his lecture fees and book royalties go to charity, including his non-profit NutritionFacts.org, one of the most credible sources of science-based nutrition. How Not to Diet is one of the best books I've ever read on how to lose weight in sustainable ways that enhance health. Highly recommended! --Dean Ornish, M.D., founder and president of the non-profit Preventive Medicine Research Institute and author of UnDo It!

There is no doubt that if you wish to learn how extensive is the evidence supporting a whole food plant-based diet, read this book. Dr. Greger has mastered that knowledge base like no one else. --T. Colin Campbell, Ph.D., professor emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University and author of The China Study

How Not to Diet
is an encyclopedic tapestry of everything important and healthful for human nutrition. Walter Lippman once stated 'the touchstone of sanity is the truth.' Dr. Greger has created a monumental bastion of nutritional truth to lead our journey in eliminating chronic disease. --Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr. M.D., author of Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease
