Do you struggle to lose weight and get healthy? Are you playing the blame-game and berating yourself for "cheating" on your diet? This struggle should come as no surprise, as we are genetically wired to eat more and move less, the exact opposite of the advice we are often given. Now there is a more customized weight loss solution that works with your body, a solution based not on arbitrary restriction of foods but on what works for YOU. Developed by former research biochemist, health expert, and bestselling author Robb Wolf, Wired to Eat offers an eating program, based on groundbreaking research, that will rewire your appetite for weight loss and help you finally determine the optimal foods for your diet and metabolism. You'll start with Wolf's 30-Day Reset, complete with detailed meal plans, to help you restore your body's blood sugar levels, repair your appetite, and reverse insulin resistance. Once you've completed this phase of the plan, the unique 7-Day Carb Test will help you determine what amounts and types of carbs you can tolerate. No more guessing. Now you can find out for yourself which foods you can and cannot eat, instead of relying on a one-size-fits all diet. The 60 whole-food, paleo-based recipes are there to aid you on your journey, and Wolf includes meal plans for people who suffer with autoimmune diseases, as well as a separate chapter on nutritional ketosis.
