This updated edition of the national bestseller debunks dietary myths and presents Dr. Willett's New Healthy Eating Pyramid, a healthier guide to nutrition than the recently revised USDA pyramid.Inside you'll discover: eye-opening new research on the healthiest carbohydrates, fats, and proteins why weight control is still the single most important factor menu plans and brand-new recipes that make it even easier to reinvent your diet, The bestselling guide to healthy eating, debunking dietary myths, and proposing the radical benefits of low-carbohydrate diet, Eat, Drink, and Be Healthy is "filled with advice backed up by documented research" (Tara Parker-Pope, The Wall Street Journal). Dr. Walter Willett's research is rooted in studies that tracked the health of dieters over twenty years, and in this groundbreaking book, he critiques the carbohydrate-laden diet proposed by the USDA. Exposing the problems of popular diets such as the Zone, South Beach, and Atkins, Dr. Willett offers eye-opening research on the optimum ratio of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, and the relative importance of various food groups and supplements. Find out how to choose wisely between different types of fats, which fruits and vegetables provide the best health insurance, and the proportions of each to integrate into their daily diet.

    Great Book: Eat Drink and Be Healthy

    I'm only a few chapters in but am really enjoying this informative book, backed by extensive research, on this very important topic of what to eat for optimum health. My one and only complaint is that the print is very small. I'm very glad I bought this and will continue reading.

    Doctors Orders

    I asked my doctor if there was one, complete nutritional guide that was easy to understand and follow. He quickly said "Eat, Drink and Be Healthy". The book presents a different slant on the Healthy Eating Pyramid than the government's version and then goes on to support his healthier version. Dr Willet has a reputation as being a clear writer without any special interests to bias his opinions. His pyramid is not radical and does not call for eating out of the ordinary foods. Basically, exercise a lot and eat many fruits and vegetables. Drop the trans fats and go for Olive Oils. Lots of other explanations and advice but that's the crux of it! How simple is that? I can easily recommend this book to anyone who cares about their health.

    Great recipes, common sense advice!

    This is a groundbreaking book with excellent advice to encourage healthy eating. I have found that, in combination with other Mediterranean/Asian diet books, you will have a full array of healthy recipes. Highly recommended.
