The book that started it all! The High-Protein/Low-Carbohydrate way to lose weight, feel fit, and boost your health--in just weeks! In 1995, Drs Michael and Mary Eades introduced the world to the Protein Power Plan. This low carb diet was updated and republished in 2000 as the Protein Power LifePlan. The Protein Power diet looks at how the three main types of food, or "macronutrients" - carbohydrates, protein and fat - should be used in a diet. The Protein Power Diet restricts carbohydrates, encourages more protein intake, and requires little fat and calorie counting. Touted as "The nutritional primer of the nineties" by The Zone author, Barry Sears.
