The Fat Fallacy : The French Diet Secrets to Permanent Weight Loss

The Fat Fallacy : The French Diet Secrets to Permanent Weight Loss Fat is not the enemy!


Croissants. Brioche. Brie. To the American palate, these foods are fattening and oftentimes “forbidden.” Yet they are the regular staples of the French diet. And though almost half of all Americans are overweight, France’s obesity rate is at a low eight percent, while the French also boast fewer cases of stroke and heart disease. It’s clear that America’s obsession with low-fat and fat-free foods has ultimately failed.
In The Fat Fallacy, neuroscientist Will Clower explains precisely why the American diet sabotages weight-loss efforts and discusses how French eating habits can lead to better health and trimmer physiques. In this revolutionary work, Dr. Clower explains:

• How highly processed “fake foods” are the real culprit in the American diet
• Why it’s not just what you eat but how you eat that makes a difference
• Easy ways to adopt the habits of the French to melt the pounds away, including
complete dinner recipes—with dessert!

Finally, here’s a plan that cuts through the high-protein/low-fat debate. It’s not a gimmicky diet program but a way of life that will invite Americans to enjoy food like never before—while being healthier and trimmer than they ever could have imagined.
Customer Review: How do they do it?
How do the French do it? They use whole milk, cheese, freshly baked French bread, olive oil, dark chocolate, etc. They don't subscribe to any of the "no fat" or "no carbs" craze; they enjoy eating well, and they still keep their weight well within acceptable limits(!) So how do they do it? Well, they simply recognize food for what it is - it is nutrition that our bodies need. We cannot feel well and look good if we eliminate such nutrients as fats, or carbohydrates from our meals. We need all of that. The secret lies in the moderation. - Eat well, enjoy your meal, but do not eat much. Chew each bite thoroughly. Also, eat a lot of fruits and vegetables, exercise. These are the commonly known "secrets" that we in America find difficult to adhere to. All these, and other secrets can also be found in the book "Can we live 150" - a well known European bestseller.
Customer Review: Excellent read...
Being a Neurophysiology which is a part of physiology as a science, which is concerned with the study of the nervous system. It is closely connected with psychology, neurology, clinical neurophysiology, electrophysiology, ethology, higher nervous activity and other schools of science makes the author more than qualified to write a book on how food effects the human body. And anyone who has lived in France for two years and has shut up and listened and observed, should be qualified in some way to discuss how the French eat and why they are so healthy compared to most Americans.

Having said that, I find the book full of wisdom that should a reader use even a small amount their life and health should improve alot. Sure the author drives home common sense things like stop eating faux foods, or eat small servings and he notes on page 122 'This diet is about giving up quantity for quality, about eating richer, better food and loving it more. Eating fewer calories falls out naturally from that.... You aren't losing weight, you are developing a healthy relationship with your food. Weight loss just happens.'

Going back to page 3 the author shows that in the United States 13,000 new fat free products invented in the last 15 years whereas in France you wont find such products. That the % of fat in the diet is lower in the US, 30-35% but 10% higher in France where obesity is almost unheard of. That in the US at least 30% of Americans are obese (this doesn't count those who are overweight or morbidly obese wheras in France the number is 8% and holding. Heart disease in the US is 3 times higher whereas in France it is 3 times lower. French women live years longer and French men 2 years longer than your average American.

And the author is 100% correct when he shares that people he has known (same with me) who have been in France for even a few weeks who have eaten in a total French way, are amazed that they lose weight and haven't really tried. And he shared on page 33 that 'Paul Rozin a scientist who explores the psychology of food, recently surveyed dietary viewpoints from many cultures. He pointed out that the French see food in terms of what it can do for you. Americans, on the other hand, view it in terms of the harm it can inflict'.

The author also shows keenly that Americans cheat when it comes to food whereas the French savour what they do eat which means that unlike the American cheater who eats fast in order to hide their mistake, the French not only can tell you what they ate and why they loved it, but can do so while eating 75% less than the average American.

The author also wisely reminds the reader that its their responsibility to stop making excuses and start making wiser choices. So what if when eating out the serving size is enough for three or four meals, grow up and learn to eat less and leave the leftovers or take them home for two more meals. Or better yet pick better places to eat where the serving sizes are more European in size.

The only complaint I have about the book is the title which I would have preferred to be The French Lifestyle Secrets to Permanent Weight Loss since studies show that only around 20% of people who diet succeed, whereas those who make lifestyle changes which are more permanent, have a much higher success rate.

Customer Review: My food/diet bible!
I'm really happy with the results I've achieved after following natalia's advice for the last 10 months. I eat a lot - but only the prescribed foods and juices - and now, I'm 6 months pregnant. My Baby has "a beautiful spine" according to the sonographer, and although I have felt very tired thru most of my pregnancy, I've never had "morning sickness". My weight gain up to this point is 19 pounds.

The options for cooked foods, meat and fish work well for my husband. He is very active, and a bodybuilder. He is very lean - the last thing he wants is to lose weight. So he gets lots of veggies, the "green lemonade" every morning, and kamut pasta, sweet potatoes, salads, fish, some chicken etc., for dinner. (all organic of course!) I tend to stick with the raw, vegetarian options on the plan.

When I eat "normally" (tradtional american fare) I tend to be about 15 -20 pounds over weight, and don't have a lot of energy. On this plan - granted I was only on it for about four months before I got pregnant - I dropped 10 pounds in the first month, and my weight loss continued until I got pregnat. My weight stayed low no matter what I ate in the first trimester - I contiuned with lots of veggies, the Green Lemonade, and the "easy exit" foods. I tend to not eat a lot of nuts and seeds - almond butter here and there, but really LOTS of vegetables - and RAW milk an RAW cheese occasionally. She's not big on dairy at all - but seems to be okay with raw upasturized dairy. That's something I have picked up from other raw food books i've read (David Wolf, Steve Arlin, etc...) so don't quote me on Natalia's "approval" of the raw dairy.

The best of it is that my skin is very clear, and I really see a difference in my skin if I miss more than 2 days of the Green Lemonade. It's a great program, easy to follow, not too dogmatic, and I've had great results.
