Squires (coauthor, The Spotlight Diet for Children) reaches millions of readers through her nationally syndicated "Lean Plate Club" column for the Washington Post. With this book, she sets out an eight-week program designed to help readers learn why and how they've gained weight so that they can reverse habits. She stresses the importance of not just losing weight but keeping it off. Calorie counting, she insists, is essential, and she provides weekly food and activity goals, recipes, and exercise hints. A lot of the content here is common sense and readily available in many other diet and nutrition books, including information on mindful eating, nutrition labels, aspartame, body mass index, sleep help, carbs, and calories. Perhaps the unique value of Squires's book is the live-chat connection, where readers can find free online support for enforcing their new, healthier habits. Those with little previous dieting experience would do well to start with this book. For libraries with comprehensive nutrition collections.-Carla McLean, King Cty. Lib.

Gut Wisdom
Author: Alyce M Soroki
Are you eating a reasonable diet, getting enough exercise and still experiencing indigestion, bloat, or other "gut distress"? Do you experience frequent knots, butterflies, tension, or more severe symptoms in your gut?That's because diet and exercise are only part of the equation-scientists are now proving what body/mind theorists have been saying all along: that the gut and brain are inextricably connected. Positive thoughts of joy, peace, and love contribute to a healthy gut. Negative thoughts of rage, resentment, and anxiety are like toxins in the gut. Gut Wisdom will help you learn how to listen to your gut to achieve total body health. Unlike other books on digestion, it is a friendly, readable, easy-to-understand guide that gives you specific procedures you can use to alleviate indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, diarrhea, and many other common ailments.
