Description
Oprah Winfrey is one of the most celebrated women in the world - she's also one of the most famous yo-yo dieters. "It has been the battle of my life," she has said, "... a battle I am still fighting every waking moment."
Anyone who, like Oprah, has endured the vicious rollercoaster of losing, regaining and then putting on more weight knows that the advice we are being given doesn't work. So, what does?
Dr Zoe Harcombe, PhD, experienced the misery of yo-yo dieting throughout her twenties and decided to use her scientific training to find a solution. She has spent the past 20 years studying diet, eating habits and the escalating obesity crisis and is now the go-to nutrition expert for some of the world's leading doctors.
In The Diet Fix, Zoe reveals her 10-step plan for success. Using evidence-based analysis, she tells us how to lose weight without hunger, how to eat better rather than less and, most importantly, how to make it different this time.

Reviews / Votes
"This book is a game changer. You will never need to count calories again." - Dr Aseem Malhotra"Zoe Harcombe provides an invaluable resource for understanding the mess that is today's nutrition and chronic disease research. Her ability to think critically and skeptically about the latest research makes her among the very few trustworthy sources of information and guidance on this vitally important topic."- Gary Taubes, science and health journalist, author of Good Calories, Bad Calories and The Case Against Sugar
"There is quite simply no writer on nutrition and dietetics anywhere in the world whose opinion I value more than that of Zoe Harcombe. Here, finally, is the weight-loss advice that is effective...If you are still searching for that elusive lifestyle prescription that will work for you, rejoice. You have finally found it." - Professor Tim Noakes, scientist and Emeritus Professor
"The Diet Fix is an easy-to-read explanation of why calorie counting doesn't work and what can be done to fix it. Dr. Harcombe shows once again a mastery of nutrition science and is able to translate that into simple steps to improve your health." - Dr Jason Fung, Canadian kidney specialist and author of The Obesity Code and The Diabetes Code
