Publishers Text

Picture a storeroom in your body, filled with carbohydrates. The body only has the capacity to store carbohydrates for around 48 hours. If a person hasn't used them in that time, the body processes them through the liver and turns them into fat. When the carbohydrate intake is lowered, the body will use what is in the storeroom first and then turn to the stored fat for energy. When the body's stored fat is burned, a person will lose weight. The power of protein includes information on how the diet works, a guide to a standard day, carbohydrate counts, an insight into vitamins and minerals and 185 recipes (breakfast, snacks, beef, chicken and seafood as well as desserts, sauces and soups). These quick and tasty meals will assist the dieter to keep losing weight or to maintain weight loss as they are all carbohydrate-counted for convenience. The recipes have ingredients readily available in most supermarkets or health food stores.
