Description: The Harcombe Diet is the result of 20 years of research trying to answer the question 'Why on earth do we have an obesity problem, let alone an epidemic, when we want more than anything else in the world to be slim?' This research has led dietician and author Zoe Harcombe to several discoveries: The calorie theory (eating less = weightloss) is fundamentally wrong; The current diet advice is actually the cause of the obesity epidemic; A better public health message to embed in people's minds is Eat real food; The only way to lose weight is to work with your body never against it; Weight gain and loss depends on what we eat, what we eat with what and how often we eat - in no way is it as simplistic as just how much we eat; Overweight people are not greedy, weak-willed or in need of a psychiatrist - they are victims of the wrong advice. So how is the Harcombe Diet different from other diets? It really works! Zoe says, 'I set out to understand why we had an obesity epidemic and to design a diet that would eliminate hunger and food cravings. I did not set out to design a diet that would lose people 7kgs in 5 days and yet, at the time of going to print, this is the record for Phase 1. As a bonus, the most common themes in the endless testimonials are: 'I'm not hungry'; 'My cravings have disappeared'; 'I feel great'; 'I've got more energy than I've ever known' and 'This is the last diet I will ever need'. It fundamentally rejects the calorie theory,
