The Stubborn Fat Fix: Eat Right to Lose Weight and Cure Metabolic Burnout Without Hunger or Exercise: summary, description and annotation

Do you feel tired all the time? Do you feel hungry between meals, even if youve just eaten? Do you crave candy, soda, or coffee, especially in the mid-afternoon?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, you may have a metabolic disadvantage. Most diet plans fail because they dont address the underlying metabolic conditions that contribute to increased hunger and weight gain. In fact, they often worsen the problem by cutting calories and prompting food cravings. This further stresses your metabolism and leaves you hungrierand heavierthan ever.
The Stubborn Fat Fix remedies this by identifying and treating metabolic imbalances. Based on the results of simple quizzes, youll choose between two eating plans that prescribe the ideal foods needed to repair your metabolic disorder and turn off faulty hunger signals. On both plans, youll lose weight by doing something that seems counterintuitiveeat more, move lessin order to heal your metabolism. You can even incorporate luxury foodsindulging in ice cream, salty snacks, bread, wine or beer, or even chocolateto stay on track without feeling deprived. A tailored supplement program, carefully controlled exercise, and stress-reduction techniques complete the metabolic cure.
Even better, once your metabolism is in balance, you will not only permanently drop pounds but also improve your cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar, and energy levels for overall better health. Hundreds of the Berkowitzes patients, like those profiled in the book, have successfully lost up to 70 pounds with this plan.
With The Stubborn Fat Fixfeaturing more than 30 delicious recipes and the exclusive Fiber Ratio tool created by Valerie to help you get the most out of your favorite foodsyou, too, can lose that stubborn fat forever.

W e are disoriented, dazed, and confused by an abundance of misinformation, contradictory nutritional claims, and lack of clear, practical steps to address our personal and our global struggle with excess weight. On our planet, more people are now overweight than are starving. Obesity has exceeded malnutrition as the number one cause of death worldwide, resulting in 29 million deaths from preventable lifestyle disease such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and dementia.
Solutions to this crisis are not immediately evident because our national food policy is controlled by an agriculture and food industry that profits from increased consumption of fake foods or Frankenfoods. Yet buried within that mountain of misinformation and deliberate deception, the science of what to eat, how to create health, and how to automatically restore normal metabolism and self-regulate our weight, is screaming to be known.
Now Dr. Keith and Valerie Berkowitz clear up the misinformation. From their personal and professional experience and from the overwhelming scientific literature, they present the wisdom of practical, responsible clinicians who have successfully helped thousands of patients lose weight for good.
The Stubborn Fat Fixs brilliance lies in its simplicity and accessibility for everyone. Eat more real food. Move a little, rest a little, and add metabolism-boosting nutrients. Thats it. But the implications for this are broad and profound. Whats more important than what we dont eat is what we do eat.
It is no mystery why we are sick and fat. With each of us on average consuming 66 pounds of high fructose corn syrup, 158 pounds of total sugar, mountains of trans fats, and more than 3,500 chemicals (MSG, aspartame, and food dye, to name a few) added to our foodas well as a gallon each of toxic pesticides every yearit is a wonder we are walking around at all.
Real food is something most of us rarely consumewhole foods just as they are found in naturea whole fresh vegetable, not salty canned versions; a whole brown rice grain, not processed flour; a whole fruit, not fruit juice; a whole nut instead of trans fat and sugar-laden processed nut butters; and beans, seeds, lean animal protein such as fish, chicken and eggs. Think farmers field, not food chemists lab.
If you do this, then counting fat grams, calories, and carbs is unnecessary. You can eat more and weigh less.
All of the obstacles to weight loss disappear when we put foods that we are designed to thrive on in our bodies and limit artificial additives that block, interfere, or alter our normal appetite and metabolism. You will no longer suffer cravings, hunger, or deprivation. This book is about possibilitythe possibility of effortless weight loss by focusing on health first.
The Stubborn Fat Fix is a bright spot in the darkness of an obesity epidemic that should be read for its common sense, science-based, simple, and extraordinarily practical road map. This map will not only create sustained and mostly effortless weight loss, but radically transform your health and well-being at the same time. And heres the simple reason. The same things that make you sick make you fat. And the same things that make you fat make you sick. So when you eat real, fresh, whole foods and take care of your bodys basic needs for movement, rest, relaxation, and nutrients, not only do the pounds fall away, but diseases disappear as well. So the side effect of The Stubborn Fat Fix is preventing, reversing, and often curing chronic illness. Not bad.

W e are extremely thankful for the opportunity to help you improve the quality of your life. Thanks to Rodale Inc. for helping us spread the message that eating healthy isnt just about losing weight but about getting well and living longer, too.
Specifically, wed like to thank Adam Campbell at Mens Health magazine. Youve been a great supporter and friend. Also, our editors, Kathy LeSage and Andrea Au Levitt: Thank you for discovering us, believing in us, and encouraging us every step of the way. This book would never have happened if it werent for you.
Jeremy Katz, our agent, has been a mastermind who not only coordinated this winning team but even lent some of his personal recipes to the cause. Alisa Bowman spent many tireless hours writing this magnificent book, developing recipes, and managing our deadlines. Thanks to Dr. Mark Hyman for contributing the Foreword.
To the Goldstein and Berkowitz families: It was your solid base that allowed us to explore this alternative way of eating and wellness. To our three children: You give us daily inspiration and always make sure we are on course.
A huge thanks also goes to our clients, especially those who allowed us to tell their stories within the pages of this book.
Beata Moniuszko and Binni Ipcar: You are the heart and soul behind our practice. You each play a critical role in the success of our patients at the Center for Balanced Health.
We also thank the late Dr. Robert C. Atkins. He was and still is an inspiration to us in changing the way we practice medicine and nutrition. He was a pioneer in this field.
W e wrote this book for the multitudes of people whose physicians have told them to lose weight or else.
Or else youll need blood pressure, blood sugar, or blood cholesterol medication.
Or else youll need bypass surgery.
Or else your diabetes will result in blindness, amputated limbs, or organ failure.
Or else youll die.
Or else. We dont use those words in our practice. We dont because we understand that you have been trying for many years to lose weight. We believe you. We also know all too well just how many physicians, friends, and spouses have already said those words. We know that the words or else do not motivate people to lose weight.
You dont need to hear these words because you already know them. Michael certainly did. When he came to our practice for the first time, he was more than 20 pounds overweight, diabetic, and terrorized by or else. In the past six years, Ive gone from doctor to doctor, he told us. Each one prescribed me a different batch of drugs, none of which worked. By the time Michael came to us, he was taking $400 worth of prescription medications every single month, was fed up with doctors, and was terrified. Im afraid that Im going to die, he said.
He wanted to see his children grow up, attend college, get married, and have children of their own. He desperately wanted to lose weight. What was stopping him? His body was bankrupt, and his physicians were trying to pull him out of that bankruptcy by getting him to stress his body even moremore in the way of exercise, more in the way of effort, more in the way of fear. Sure, various physicians had suggested he eat less. They hadnt, however, shown him how to eat less in the midst of everyday crises such as hunger, cravings, and fatigue.
Once we outlined our nutritional and supplement plan and gave Michael the tools he needed to stick to it, Michael started losing easily. His blood sugar evened out. Without the peaks and valleys in blood sugar, his cravings diminished. His hunger transformed into satisfaction. His energy levels normalized. His metabolism improved. He cut his monthly drug bill by 75 percent. He regained his confidence, and his life. Oh, and he also lost 20 pounds. You can read the details of how Michael did it on page 8, and well offer more stories of patients who lost anywhere from 10 to 70 pounds just by following our simple, sustainable plan. Keep reading to find out how you can get the same great results.
