Description: "The Low-Fructose Approach to Weight Control was based on Dr. George Bray's more than forty years of scientific research on the problem of why people become obese and what they can do about it. Dr. Bray discusses how following a diet that includes lowering the amount of ''bad fructose'' you eat from high-fructose corn syrup or sucrose can lead you to choose healthier foods and a healthier lifestyle with weight loss for you.  A few of his tips include watching for the levels of ''bad fructose'' on nutrition labels of food, finding alternatives if you want, choosing less-processed foods, which are more likely to have the natural nutrients that make fresh foods more ''naturally nutrient rich,'' and reading nutrition labels on packaged foods to find out how much energy, expressed as calories, they contain. This book is a great source and guide for starting a new, healthy life using a low-fructose approach"--Cover.
