Dr. Vanita Rahman is an internal medicine physician, nutritionist, personal trainer, and a leading expert in the field of nutrition and wellness. In this book, she will share with you her own battle with excess weight, weight-related complications, and a serious health crisis that made her re-evaluate the role of nutrition and prevention. She changed her lifestyle, lost the extra weight, and took control of her health. And she can help you do the same. Dr. Rahman will elaborate how a sensible plant-based diet is the key to long-lasting weight loss and good health. She will explain the scientific research that supports plant-based lifestyles, and why your health care provider may not know much about it. An added bonus of plant-based eating is that it is simple to follow and does not involve gimmicks or fads, or complex and expensive meal plans. You can start and progress at your own pace. It means eating the way nature intended us to eat, rather than the way food manufacturers want us to eat. As you follow her advice and plan, you too will lose the extra weight while reclaiming your health and energy.
