Publishers Text

Doing for fat what he did for cholesterol in the bestsellers Don't Eat Your Heart Out and Choices for a Healthy Heart, lay expert Joe C. Piscatella presents a wealth of medically sound information on the dangerous American high-fat diet and what can be done to avoid it.

He shows how our fast-paced modern lifestyle has created a pro-fat culture that relies on frozen meals, fast foods, and snacks for nutrition. He reveals how advertising regularly misleads consumers about the fat content of foods (2% milk, for example, is really 38% fat). He makes known information about the biological basis for the "fat tooth" - why so many of us crave chocolate, cheesecake, and ice cream. And he provides specific, practical, usable advice on striping fat from our diets by employing a special fat tooth budget.

With menus, tips, and 200 delicious, low-fat recipes from Bernie Piscatella - each with a nutritional breakdown - CONTROLLING YOUR FAT TOOTH is every American's antidote to a national epidemic.
