By reading this book, you are already taking the first step in the right direction! You have realized it may be time for a diet, but does a diet have to eliminate all the foods you love or inhibit all your social or family activities that often center around dinner, coffee, or drinks? Life can be complex, busy, and full of challenges that never get any easier. Weight gain also is part of aging and plays a big role in our physical and mental health; yet many of us don’t know where to turn to learn how to diet and exercise. But does a diet have to be that complex? This book provides a short and simple explanation on how and why the body stores fat, dispels misconceptions, and provides strategies for dieting and exercise. The Protein-To-Calorie Ratio (“PC Score”) provides an easy way for you to make healthy choices in your diet to more quickly reach your weight-loss goals. As a physician, I never imagined what a big role diet and nutrition would play in my medical practice, but it’s a topic that comes up with most of my patients, regardless of their presenting problem. That’s because diet and nutrition really can influence most disease states. Over the years, I have counseled my patients, family, friends, and colleagues on weight loss, but it wasn’t until I found myself needing to lose weight and searching for a diet that fit into my life and my family activities that motivated me to create a diet that was simple, flexible, AND effective! What was even more rewarding was sharing The PC Diet with my patients and receiving positive feedback. Most memorable, was seeing a 300+ pound man come in 6 months after I briefly discussed The PC Diet with him, have him pull down his suspenders, and pull his pants a good foot away from his belly and say, “Hey doc, I followed your diet, what do you think?” The PC Diet is designed to fit into your life, not a diet that controls your life. Let’s get to work, and all it takes is a quick read of this book. Now grab a copy of this book and replace 15 minutes of social media with something that can change your life! YOU’VE GOT THIS!!

The only difference between the HEALTHIEST people on earth, and the LEAST HEALTHY? DIET and EXERCISE. All of us WANT to achieve optimum wellness, but not all of us know how. There are some basic levers that drive health in one of two directions: towards perfection, or towards chronic degenerative disease. If you understand the principles that govern your physiology, you can achieve complete mastery over your own body composition and become the best possible version of yourself. The P: E Diet is the SIMPLEST and MOST PRACTICAL diet and exercise book ever written. Once you understand the core tenets of your biology, you will know HOW to increase your lean mass while decreasing your fat mass-and you will know WHY it works. The P: E Diet breaks down every single dietary strategy into one incredibly simple metric: PROTEIN versus ENERGY. The protein to energy ratio explains EVERY SINGLE DIET PHENOMENON. The P: E Diet breaks down the cause of the obesity epidemic and the solution using this one powerful weapon. This is not 'paleo' or 'keto' or 'low carb' or 'low fat' or 'plants versus animals' or 'calorie counting'-instead this is one MASTER CONCEPT that explains the success of EVERY SINGLE DIETARY STRATEGY out there. This book completely TRANSCENDS ALL OF THE DIET CAMPS and explains why they ALL offer some value-and once you understand this underlying principle, you unlock EVERY DIET. The P: E Diet explains EXACTLY why FOOD CHOICE is everything - once you choose WHAT to eat, your body will tell you HOW MUCH to eat. This approach teaches you how to eat INTUITIVELY to achieve your goals, without unnecessary tracking or micromanaging quantity. The exercise portion of this book is just as revelatory: all you need for the optimum adaptive response to exercise is to generate MAXIMUM TENSION in your muscles for the MAXIMUM TIME possible. All exercise can be broken down into three exercise motions: PUSH, PULL, and LEGS. This requires NO EQUIPMENT WHATSOEVER and can be accomplished with bodyweight only. By maximizing INTENSITY and FREQUENCY you can build muscle with absolute MINIMUM TIME. Packed with hundreds of photos and illustrations, The P: E Diet is a life-changing knowledge bomb that absolutely anyone and everyone should read.

This book makes it simple to understand and put into practice. The book makes it easy to lose weight with the DASH diet, and it has realistic ways to add exercise. Although the book was not intended to be an aggressive weight loss book, people are writing to say that they have surprised themselves by finding it easy to lose weight following the plan! Many people find the DASH diet to be hard to implement and sustain in a hectic lifestyle. The average American gets 2 - 3 servings of fruits and vegetables combined each day, so following the DASH diet may seem daunting. The DASH Diet Action Plan book is designed to help you with more than just "what" is involved with the DASH diet, it also shows you "how." How to follow the DASH diet in restaurants, how to lose weight, how to make over your kitchen to make it easy to follow your plan, how to fit in exercise, how to reduce salt intake, how to add vegetables even if you "hate" vegetables. And the book helps you make your own personal plan with specific steps you will take to fit the DASH diet into your daily routine. Our readers say that this is the best DASH diet book! Your step-by-step plan will include: setting your goals for blood pressure and cholesterol, determining the calorie-level you need for maintenance or weight loss, developing meal plans, developing a realistic exercise plan, adjusting the DASH diet to accommodate other health problems, choosing the key DASH diet foods, reading food labels, and learning how to incorporate more vegetables in your diet, and setting up your kitchen to make it easy to stay on track. This book was written by a registered dietitian who is experienced in helping people make sustainable behavior changes, and make healthy eating part of their real lives. She knows that people need flexibility and options to choose different approaches, since not everyone has the time or the interest in cooking or making drastic changes in how they eat. The book incorporates tools that will help you plan the specific steps you will take to adopt the DASH diet. Research shows that people who make concrete plans are more likely to be successful with adopting new health behavior. This should improve your ability to lower your blood pressure (and cholesterol), without medication.
