"The Mindful Meals Diet" uncovers the reasons why diets don't
work-ancient genetic food drives and unhealthy eating habits. The
genes that permitted our ancestors to survive, during the period
when calories were scarce, motivated them to prefer high calorie
fats, sweets and more calories. These same 'obesity' genes are out
of sync with present day needs, but still drive our food
preferences.
"The Mindful Meals Diet" acknowledges our urges and satisfies
our genes with healthy types of fat, sweets, and calories. It
adopts the diet of the world's longest living and healthiest
peoples, by blending the best and tastiest foods from the
Mediterranean, Asian and Okinawa diets. However, it is unrealistic
to think that our unhealthy eating habits, encouraged by the
availability of high calorie foods, can be changed by will
power.
Because we are creatures of habit and food preference is
learned, the only successful way to a long term diet is to develop
healthy eating habits. To meet this requirement, the book provides
a step by step program of mind/body interventions directed at
developing healthy eating habits. These interventions include;
mindful eating, relaxation response, self-hypnosis and self guided
imagery.
