The Power of Protein: Losing Weight with a High Protein, Low Carb Diet - Softcover

Losing weight can be remarkably easy when done correctly, and "The Power of Protein" gives a simple explanation of why a low carb/high protein diet is what the body needs to burn fat. Inside you will find the recipes required to create healthy, low carb meals that you can easily tailor to your needs. In simple terms, the modern diet consists of more carbohydrates than the body can break down. The average human can only store carbs for 48 hours before the liver turns the unused carbs into fat. By lowering your carbohydrate intake and substituting it with protein, your body will use your fat stores as an energy source so you will always be losing weight, and losing the correct weight!
