Nutrition researcher and New York Times bestselling author Neal Barnard, MD, introduces a plan that traps, tames, and burns calories for easy and permanent weight loss in his new book, The Power Foods Diet. Dr. Barnard shows that certain foods actually cause weight loss, like a weight-loss medication without a prescription. The plan focuses on everyday ingredients, such as blueberries, cinnamon, and citrus fruits. These and other powerful foods are built into more than 120 mouthwatering recipes by master recipe developers Dustin Harder and Lindsay S. Nixon. “Weight loss drugs like Wegovy and Ozempic, which come with side effects and a prohibitive price tag, have received an extraordinary amount of media attention,” says Dr. Barnard. “In reality, the best solution for reaching and maintaining a healthy weight is a low-fat plant-based diet that excludes animal products. It’s effective, inexpensive, and side-effect free!”Obesity and overweight are among today’s top health concerns. Individuals are constantly looking for easy, effective, and permanent ways to lose weight. It turns out, when properly chosen, certain foods cause weight loss, with no need for the deprivation and planning that most weight-loss regimens require.THE POWER FOODS DIET reveals three weight-loss breakthroughs supported by research that:

1. Reduce the appetite
2. Trap calories so they are flushed away and cannot be absorbed
3. Increase the body’s ability to burn calories for hours after each meal
