From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. Back for another highly entertaining round of Biology 101,
the team behind YOU: The Owner's Manual applies its signature wit and
wisdom to food metabolism and nutrition. According to Roizen and Oz, waist
measurement, not weight, is the most important factor in mortality related
to obesity, and understanding the relationship between chemicals and
hormones influencing hunger and those signaling satiety is the key to
ending yo-yo dieting. Most diets fail, Roizen and Oz conclude, because body
chemistry overrules the best plans and intentions. To restore the body's
natural ability to balance hunger and satiety and offset the effects of
stress on food choices, they list foods and supplements that fight fat,
decrease appetite and combat inflammation that causes disease. Roizen and
Oz pack in a lot of material--quizzes, "factoids" and "myth busters" along
with diet and exercise plans, recipes and a two-week "rebooting"
program--in bite-sized portions, giving readers a chance to absorb and
apply what they learn. For those considering medical intervention, they
discuss current options for drugs and surgery. (Oct.)
