With The Volumetrics Weight-Control Plan, leading nutritionist
Barbara Rolls, Ph.D. has devised a plan to give people what theyve
always wanted: a way to lose weight while still feeling full and
satisfied. By concentrating on energy density (the amount of
calories in a given volume of food) and its relation to satiety,
Rolls and co-author Robert A. Barnett guide the reader toward a
more rewarding and manageable lifetime approach to eating, one that
doesnt include deprivation. Unlike many fad diets, their ideas are
based on a solid body of scientific research, revealing the many
factors that determine how much we eat, and hence how much weight
we gain. From this research, Rolls and Barnett have created a clear
program with tasty recipes, menus, and eating recommendations that
can help anyone lose weight safely and effectively. The Volumetrics
Weight-Control Plan has sold more than 100,000 copies in combined
editions, and continues to generate a flurry of publicity in
publications from USA Today to Good Housekeeping to the Washington
Post. Hailed as a five-star "must-read" by the
prestigious Tufts University Health and Nutrition Letter,
Volumetrics is a refreshing entry into the crowded diet market, and
one that strikes a chord with the millions of Americans who have
tried conventional diets and failed.
