Lots of diet information is being dispersed to the public, but not all of it is sound or safe. The diet industry is a multi-billion-dollar-a-year industry.All weight loss diets promise wonderful benefits. But because not all diets deliver what they promise, dieters are left wondering where to turn, who to trust and what is true. Many dieters experience confusion when it comes to sorting through facts, myths, diet claims, and dieting concepts. The Omega Z Diet Book helps dieters sort through and evaluate diets so permanent, successful weight loss can result. Explanations, definitions, and concepts are applied to fad diets while equipping dieters with key, scientific facts. Education is key in successful weight loss. The Omega Z Diet empowers dieters so they can achieve their goals and cut through the diet confusion with confidence. The Omega Z Diet is divided into two parts. Part 1 provides a review of important nutrition concepts and scientific truths related to weight management. It discusses macro and micronutrients, how the body uses them and how they impact health. This section provides an in-depth discussion on why so many people struggle with weight loss and how to identify fad diets. Confusing terms and concepts used in metabolism are defined and explained as they relate to various popular diets. Part 2 rates the most popular weight loss diets as poor, fair, good or excellent on 17 different criteria including cost, sustainability, ease of use and ability to be tailored or to accommodate individual uniqueness of different dieters. This section examines claims made by each diet and discusses scientific truths and myths, as well as positive and negative aspects of each diet. When appropriate, suggestions are made on how each diet can be improved.
