Synopsis
Americans used to eat a fiber-rich diet fresh from the fields (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes); today, we eat food from a box; that is, food that has processed the fiber right out of our diets. The result: an epidemic of obesity that causes most of the common diseases of our time. The Fiber35 Diet focuses on 35 grams of fiber per day as the key nutritional measure for losing weight. Fiber packs a four-part weight loss formula: it curbs your appetite, helping you reduce calories; it actually eliminates calories from the food you eat; fiber-rich foods are low-energy density foods; fiber slows down your body's carbohydrate conversion to sugar, which supports blood glucose stability that helps you lose weight. This book also corrects the falsehood that carbs are bad: carbs from fruit, vegetables, and other sources are an important source of nutrition.--From publisher description.

Publisher's Note
It's time to revolutionize the way you think about dieting!
Bestselling author Brenda Watson shares the remarkable secret that helped her take charge of her health and change her life forever. Now you can do the same!
THE FIBER35 DIET will show you how to lose weight and improve your health by taking advantage of the extraordinary health benefits of fiber.
In recent decades, a change has taken place in America. In contrast to the fiber-rich fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains once prevalent in our diet, we now consume an overwhelming number and amount of processed foods filled with refined sugars and harmful trans fats. As a result, we have almost completely stripped our diet of what is quite possibly the most beneficial nutrient on the planet.
In addition to helping prevent many of the major diseases of our time -- including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer -- fiber helps to increase satiety, reduce hunger, and actually decrease caloric intake.
The Fiber35 Diet will show you how getting 35 grams of fiber every day is the key to losing weight and staying healthy for life. Unlike many of the low-carbohydrate, high-protein diets that currently saturate the market, the Fiber35 Diet is based on scientifically verified techniques clinically proven to help you lose weight. Most important, this diet corrects one of the most dangerous falsehoods of our time: that carbohydrates are bad. The Fiber 35 Diet teaches you a lifetime eating system that helps you shed pounds safely and effectively.
This book includes:
-Straightforward, easy-to-understand concepts that have been researched in detail and clinically proven.
-A personalized weight loss formula based on how many pounds you want to lose.
-Recommendations about dietary supplements and nutritious food choices.
-Healthful and fiber-rich recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.
-A comprehensive strength and cardio training program designed to help you maintain your ideal body weight.
