| Summary |
Fat is the enemy, right? Wrong, says James R. Lyons, M.D. Here, Dr. Lyons explains that, contrary to popular belief, the right kind of fat is the key to a youthful looking face and body. Unlike the yellow, mushy fat that makes us look old, brown fat is healthy, firm, and resilient and gives our bodies a youthful appearance. Dr. Lyons's findings suggest that the quality of our fat is determined by external factors. This is the first book to shed light on superficial brown fat, revealing how it makes the body look younger and healthier, and how you can change yellow fat into brown with a specifically tailored and realistic program that includes: a four-week eating plan that alternates carbohydrates and proteins, keeping blood sugar at an even keel; and a monthly exercise routine centered on weights and bungee cords--not cardio--keeping metabolism up continuously.--From publisher description. |
