Description

Breakthrough genetic research indicates that genes are not just on/off switches for characteristics we can t control (like gender or eye color). Some genes, including those that shape our bodies, actually adapt to outside influences. In Turn Off the Fat Genes, Dr. Neal Barnard draws on this cutting-edge research to create a revolutionary new program to help your body sculpt away excess pounds by activating thin genes and suppressing fat ones. The heart of Dr. Barnard s book is a three-week gene-control program specifically designed to help you identify your gene types by asking questions like: What s your genetic taste type? Do you strongly dislike Brussels sprouts? Are some desserts too sweet to eat? Is black coffee undrinkable? If you answered yes to all three questions you re a genetic bitter taster or supertaster (as opposed to a nontaster ). On page 24 you ll find out how to work with your genetic taste type. Is your appetite becoming harder to control? Have diets made your appetite unpredictable? If so, your hunger-suppressing leptin gene might need a tune-up. (See page 59.) Do you gain weight more easily than your friends? Do you have difficulty losing weight no matter what you do? If so, the genes that set your metabolism might need a boost. (See page 71.) Do you hate exercise? If so, your genes may have overloaded you with sluggish Type II muscle cells. Learn how to change them on page 100. Once we understand how the genes that control shape can be influenced, we can enjoy virtually the same effortless weight control as naturally thin people and reveal the healthy, vital body that nature intended us to have."
