Prevention Fiber Up Slim Down Cookbook: A Four-Week Plan to Cut Cravings and Lose Weight Kindle Edition

While common dieting wisdom suggests that those who need to lose weight must be eating too much, the newest discoveries in weight loss science now reveal that what's not being eaten can hinder weight reduction. Fiber is turning out to be the silver bullet of dieting—because it can fill you up on fewer calories, dampen cravings for fattening foods, and dramatically improve your overall health.

Consuming the right amount of dietary fiber can have profound health benefits. It can cut the risk of heart disease by 30 percent; lower cholesterol by as much as 13 points; decrease inflammation; drop blood pressure; balance blood sugar; improve memory; reduce the risk for breast, colon, and endometrial cancer; and boost the immune system. Unfortunately, ramping up fiber levels too quickly can also cause digestive distress. With an easy-to follow, 4 week plan, Prevention's Fiber Up Slim Down Cookbook by the Editors of Prevention Magazine shows how to switch over to high-fiber living without experiencing excessive gas or uncomfortable bloating.

Of course, for any weight-loss plan to work, the food must be fabulous. Prevention's Fiber Up Slim Down Cookbook is packed with more than 200 delicious, fiber-rich recipes that work with any fiber-rich diet plan including home-style dishes like Roasted Sweet and Russet Potato Salad and Mom's Turkey Meatloaf, tasty new favorites like Curried Beef with Pineapple and Coconut, and sweet treats like Ginger–Sweet Potato Cheesecake and Pumpkin Fruitcake.

I had requested to return this item, before it got to me. I got it yesterday and I was really impressed with the recipes, the information, the four week diet plan and so forth. It is a good size book and all the information is excellent. I am excited to try the recipes and a new way of eating, but still won't eat avocodo.

Best Cookbook I've ever owned

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2010

LOVE this book so far. I initially bought it because my girlfriend made the meatloaf, & it was better than my mom's fatty meatloaf (which is hard to beat).

I'm just getting started, but I earmarked 45 recipes as my favorites to start cooking. Yesterday, made 3 different soups, each one was REally easy (you basically use a blender & a pan), and tasted so fresh & light, yet satisfying and comforting all at the same time.

LIke most women, I've bought a million & one health cookbooks, and get frustrated with the crazy ingredients & combinations. This has a lot of comfort foods, sometimes with a little twist. yum yum yum - can't wait to cook the other 40-something recipes.

Going to buy the book for my mom & 2 friends now :)

Tasty, Easy to Prepare Recipes

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2015

Verified Purchase

This is a great cookbook. I am not following the actual diet plan in the book. However, I often cook various recipes from this book. They are tasty, fairy easy to prepare and quite filling. My 7 year old daughter and husband also enjoy the recipes from this book. I have cut back on sugar and in general use the recipes from this book for my lunch and dinner. I am not currently exercising or counting calories, but I have still managed to lose some weight with this approach. I highly recommend this cookbook.

I've had this book for years and it is one of my favorites. The recipes are easy to make and are absolutely delicious. This book is excellent for anyone on weight watchers too - lots of low point recipes. I have a ton of cookbooks but always come back to this one. I highly recommend this cookbook. I wish Prevention would come out with another one!

More Than a Diet Book

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2014

This book not only provides excellent advice for increasing fiber in one's diet, it also is a really good cookbook. Every recipe I have made has been very good and I have many, many more that I look forward to making. The recipes are relatively simple and use basic ingredients so you don't have to go out and buy unusual items that some cookbooks require. All the nutritional info needed to manage a diet is provided for each recipe with reasonable serving sizes. If you are looking for a cookbook to inspire and help you increase fiber in your diet with healthy, low calorie recipes, this is it.

Good Recipes.

Has good recipes. Not good if you are looking to reduce carbs. Has very little fiber and way too many carbs. Wasn’t for me as I am type 2 diabetic.
