The Alternate-Day Diet is a revolutionary eating planbased on the animal studies documenting alternatedaycalorie restriction, which indicate that limitingcaloric intake every other day can turn on the "skinny" gene(SIRT1).

Most important, it also promotes fat loss by releasing fatcells from around the body's organs.But, perhaps, the most significant benefit for those whowant to lose weight is that every-other-day calorie restrictioneliminates feelings of chronic deprivation—the reason thatmost diets fail.Easy-to-follow and scientifically sound, the diet is alreadya worldwide Internet phenomenon. And this book will provideDr. Johnson's legion of followers—plus those new to the diet—with all the guidance and recipes they will need to make the dietwork best.
