Most people, including physicians, nutritionists, and dieticians, recognize only three macronutrients — protein, carbohydrates, and fat. In this book, Dr. Melissa Hershberg shares her
revolutionary discovery of the “fourth macronutrient,” which can change how people view food, eating, and nutritional labels forever. The book explains how to eat “hotty” foods — foods that
don’t spike blood sugar and insulin levels, but that do keep metabolism elevated while a proper hormonal environment for weight loss is created. And, by eating food high in the fourth
macronutrient, readers can eat more food than they did before — even foods high in fat and carbs — and still lose weight. In addition, the program helps lower blood pressure, reduce
cholesterol, and prevent diabetes. The Hershberg Diet provides an easy-to-follow four-phase plan, complete with recipes, menu plans, and tips to help readers create an efficient,
customizable, error-proof strategy for shedding pounds.
