 Celebrity Diet Books – what they are reading?

Proven Celebrity Diet Books...

New celebrity diet books are being published every day. 

So which should you pick to read?

2007 saw the introduction of the 5 Factor Diet, The Entrepreneur Diet, the Food Doctor Diet and the Slim & Beautiful Diet.

In 2008 the Lunch Box Diet and the Flat Belly Diet seemed to be right up there in the popularity stakes. 

Celebrities such as Jessica Simpson and John Mayer have gone on the 5 Factor Fitness Diet which was written by Harley Pasternak. 

It was probably these two celebrities which made the diet popular.  The book “The 5 Factor Fitness Diet” was first published in 2004 and was preceded by the book “The Five Factor Diet”.

“The Revival Slim & Beautiful Diet” was written by Suzanne Tabor and her son Dr Aaron Tabor.

You will lose 26-29 pounds in just sixteen weeks! 

He claims his secret to success is eating soy-based foods.  This weight loss program is now also available online.

Ian Marber who runs the Food Doctor nutritional clinic in London wrote the Food Doctor Diet book which started in the UK but is now available on-line. The book is full of colourful images and diagrams.  It starts with a 7-day eating plan followed by a lifetime of healthy eating.

The former editor of Men’s Fitness magazine, Tom Weede, wrote the Entrepreneur Diet book.  This book is designed for people who are constantly busy, always in a rush and need to look after themselves (their number 1 asset)!

A 2-week diet plan with “quick-fix” options is included in the book as well as a comprehensive approach to healthy living and nutrition.  There are exercise programs and the diet is based on eating healthy portions, less sugar, whole grains and the good fats.

As advertised in the Elle Magazine, the Lunch Box Diet is a 10 page document which can be downloaded from the net.  It was written by Simon Lovell from the United Kingdom who is a personal trainer.

The idea of this diet is to fill a lunchbox with proteins, nutritious vegetables and fats and then graze on them throughout the day – between meals. 

This is done about every hour – without gorging yourself!  The mix has about 60% vegetables, 30% lean proteins and 10% dressing.

The Editor in Chief of Prevention magazine, Liz Vaccariello, and her Nutrition Editor, Cynthia Sass, wrote the Flat Belly Diet.

The procedure of this diet is to eat Monounsaturated Fattty Acids in each meal.  Olive oil, sunflower oil, avocado, flax oil, seeds and nuts all contain this acid.

The book claims that a limit should be put on the amount of meat in a diet.  It also gives advice on whole grains, fruits, legumes and vegetables and contains meal plans which contain 1600 calories daily.

There is an online program for this diet and it also involves optional exercises to do like lunges, brisk walking, squats and push-ups. 

So there are two celeb diets which show that replacing saturated fats with Monounsaturated Fatty Acids in a diet will end up with constructive weight-loss!
