Sound advice on weightloss from Dr. Andrew Weil. “Forget about ‘magic bullets’ and pay attention to the total calories you consume daily, and make an effort to replace high-fat foods with low-calorie ones like vegetables. I also suggest that you try to eat low on the glycemic index, in order to avoid spikes in your blood sugar that can lead to increased insulin production and conversion of calories to fat…” Dr. Andrew Weil is a healthy living guru and author of 8 Weeks to Optimum Health and many other books.
