The Okinawa Diet Plan: Get Leaner, Live Longer, and Never Feel Hungry

In their New York Times bestseller The Okinawa Program, Drs. Bradley and Craig Willcox and Makoto Suzuki explained why the Okinawans are the longest-lived people on earth. Now, they offer a practical diet program rooted in Okinawan traditions so that you too can have a leaner, more "metabolically efficient" body that will stay healthier and more youthful. Conveniently divided into three dietary tracks--western, eastern, and a fusion plan that combines both--their program will help you achieve healthy weight loss without deprivation. With more than 150 recipes, an eight-week phase-in plan, and other unique resources, The Okinawa Diet Plan is an easy-to-follow breakthrough concept in healthy weight loss.
