The Schwarzbein Principle, The Program: Losing Weight the Healthy Way

In The Schwarzbein Principle, which has sold more than 250,000 copies, Dr. Diana Schwarzbein laid out her revolutionary secret to long-term health and weight control: balance your metabolism to re-energize your immune system. Her optimal health program included steps to:

Balance a low-carb/low-fat diet; reduce stress through calming exercises;taper off chemical dependency to tobacco, alcohol, and caffeine; eliminate cardio exercise in favor of resistance training and stretching.

Now, for the first time, Dr. Schwarzbein gives readers what they have been asking for: week-by-week steps they can use to implement this system into their lives. The pay-off for making the switch? A renewed metabolic system that creates long-term health, vitality, energy, slower aging, and the ideal body. While other diet programs promise little more than a temporary crash weight loss regimen, Dr. Schwarzbein’s plan offers something much better: a permanent body change and an end to yo-yo dieting.
