PART ONE

WHY A NO-GRAIN DIET?

CHAPTER

THE OBESITY EPIDEMIC

After more than three decades of consuming less fat and more carbohydrates, the average American is gaining weight at an alarming rate. We are eating sixty pounds more grain and thirty pounds more sweeteners than we did twenty-five years ago. The effects are clear: over two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. With excess weight the single, most important factor in the onset of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes, we now face an epidemic with health costs skyrocketing to $1.5 trillion. As medical experts desperately seek answers, I am thankful I can offer an effective and time-tested solution in The No-Grain Diet.

For over a decade, the No-Grain Diet has been the centerpiece of my medical practice, used by hundreds of thousands of patients who visit my wellness center and my website at www.mercola.com. While the medical debate has simmered below the surface of media attention, Ive been quietly refining my dietary strategy with nearly miraculous results. And finally, both doctors and the general public are recognizing a growing body of scientific evidence that supports what Ive advocated all along. Eating certain kinds of carbohydrates, not fats, causes escalating weight gain and wide-ranging health problems.

According to writer Gary Taubes, in his cover article in the July 7, 2002, New York Times Magazine, new research confirms that the USDA food pyramid, the low cholesterol heart disease diet, and the medical recommendations to eat less fat and more carbohydrates are the cause of the rampaging epidemic of obesity in America.

The Culprits in Weight Gain

Fats arent to blame for weight gain! In studying our endocrine system, new research Ill detail more fully in the next chapter finds that the real culprits are grains, starches, and sweets. These foods trigger a hormonal cycle of grain and sugar addiction, weight gain, and diabetes. Thats why eliminating all grains, starches, and sugars for a limited period of time is the best way to reprogram your cells to burn fat. Erasing the signals that prompt you to eat will help you overcome cravings and addictive food urges. Combining these two approaches, the No-Grain Diet provides a comprehensive strategy that will help you rewire your physical and emotional hardware so you can lose weight and conquer carb cravings forever.

Whats in a Grain?

In your body, grains, grain products, starches, and sugars have one thing in common: they rapidly turn to glucose, promote addictive eating habits, and trigger insulin release, all of which contribute to weight gain and other health problems.

Carbohydrates from grains and sugars produce a very different effect from the ones found in vegetables, which youll enjoy on this diet. Thats why its very important to learn to distinguish between them.

Grain and sugar carbs = unhealthy foods. Vegetable carbs = healthy foods (in most cases).

Grains and grain products, including bread, flour, chips, and baked goods, are not the only sources of these detrimental carbohydrates. They are also found in:

Many starchy vegetables, like potatoes and carrots, as well as their products

Concentrated fruit products, like fruit juices or syrups

The vast majority of sweeteners, and all foods containing them

Throughout this book, when I use the term No-Grain, Im not only speaking about grains. Instead, Ill use the terms No-Grain and grains inclusively to cover all forms of grains, starches, and sugars that promote weight gain, addictive eating patterns, and health threats. Its just like, on the highway, when you first near an upcoming exit, the signs will announce that you can find food, gas, and/or lodging at the exit, but as you actually approach the exit, only the exit number will be posted. In just the same way, when you take the No-Grain exit off the super highway of weight gain, obesity, and an array of health problems, youll leave behind all detrimental carb foods, whether they come from grains, grain products, starchy vegetables, sweets, or desserts. So follow the No-Grain sign to health!

My program comes complete with:

The No-Grain Food Plan: A twenty-first-century diet in which youll learn how to eat healthy foods amply while burning off poundage.
