Thousands of books have been written about the latest and greatest diets that will help people lose weight and improve health. But a key element in any successful nutritional health program is a tried-and-true method that most people haven't thought about-yet it could be revolutionary for taking health to the next level. This ancient secret is fasting.Fasting is not about starving oneself. When done right, it's an incredibly effective therapeutic approach that produces amazing results regardless of diet plan. In fact, Toronto-based nephrologist Dr. Jason Fung has used a variety of fasting protocols with more than 1,000 patients, with fantastic success. In The Complete Guide to Fasting, he has teamed up with international bestselling author and veteran health podcaster Jimmy Moore to explain what fasting is really about, why it's so important, and how to fast in a way that improves health. Together, they make fasting as a therapeutic approach both practical and easy to understand. The Complete Guide to Fasting explains: • why fasting is actually good for health • who can benefit from fasting (and who won't) • the history of fasting • the various ways to fast: intermittent, alternate-day, and extended fasting • what to expect when starting to fast • how to track progress while fasting • the weight loss effects of fasting • how to ward off potential negative effects from fasting The book also provides tools to help readers get started and get through their fasts, including a 7-Day Kick-Start Fasting Plan and healing liquid recipes.

Looking to accelerate your weight loss or break out of the diet plateau without losing lean mass? Bestselling authors Maria and Craig Emmerich bring the solution to you in their new book, The Protein-Sparing Modified Fast Method.A Protein-Sparing Modified Fast (PSMF) is a tool designed to kick-start rapid weight loss by minimizing carbs and fat while supplying the body with adequate protein. This approach mimics the rapid weight loss benefits of fasting while preventing the loss of lean mass. Essentially, you "spare" your body's protein (your muscle) while rapidly losing weight. PSMF leverages the protein-to-energy (P:E) ratio of foods to induce fast fat loss. It’s an extremely effective way to improve insulin sensitivity and break stalls. In The Protein-Sparing Modified Fast Method, bestselling authors and low-carb advocates Craig and Maria Emmerich give you the science to support this method, along with recipes that are incredibly satiating even though they are very low in energy. You will be amazed at how good they taste, too! The book offers over 120 recipes from comforting breakfast dishes to family dinners to snacks and sweet treats, covering a broad range of global flavors. They are as quick and easy to prepare as they are satisfying.Sample recipes include:• Soufflé Omelet with Ham and Chives • French Toast Porridge • Steak and Eggs • Dutch Baby Apple Pancakes • Basil Shrimp Ceviche • Grilled Pork Chops with Truffle Mustard • Chicken Fingers with Carolina BBQ Sauce
