Dr. Barnard is also an Adjunct Professor of Medicine at the George Washington University School of Medicine in Washington, DC, and President of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. He has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, hormonal symptoms, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes. As a society, Weight loss is one of our top health concerns, so much so that we keep looking for good ways to lose weight, preferably a way that is easy, effective, and permanent. In The Power of Foods Diet, Dr. Barnard reveals three breakthroughs that are supported by research, revealing that certain foods: can reduce the appetite, trap calories so they are flushed away and cannot be absorbed, and increase the body's ability to burn calories for about three hours after each meal. This book breaks down the dozens of Power Foods, including common, everyday foods, like blueberries, melons, apples, and asparagus, as well as certain spices (cinnamon, ginger, and hot peppers). Dr. Neal Barnard will discuss the impact of a Power Foods diet, as well as how to use them at home, at restaurants and everywhere you eat, so you will never be counting calories again.
