Dr. Leland Benton has written an excellent 'anti-dieting' book that not only makes a lot of sense, but goes into detail and provides the proof to back up what he's saying about why dieting can be harmful to your health.As a follower of the 'Mediterranean Diet' and also having just written my first book with Mediterranean Diet recipes, I was happy to read that this is an eating plan that is good for you and makes sense.I found several interesting bits of information in the book - the chapter on toxemia, for instance, and also the side effects of dieting...You'll also probably be thrilled to know that you counting calories, weighing your food, or basically depriving yourself - are all things that are bad for you.This book is a must have if you've made a New Year's resolution to lose a few pounds, or you're considering going on another diet (which you know is going to result in that yo-yo experience so many women have experienced and hate.)If you're looking for practical ideas and solutions or just have questions about dieting, this is the book to start with.
