After seeing a news article regarding the 20/30 Fat and Fiber Plan written by Gabe Mirkin, M.D., I purchased the book to learn more about healthy eating.
Like most people, my wife and I have tried different types of diets, fads, and programs with the goal of losing a few pounds of extra weight. Some worked for awhile, some didn't work at all, and some were just plain too hard to stick with to achieve results we wanted.
To summarize the 20/30 concept in a nutshell....you eat all you want....of the right kinds of foods. There's no need to starve yourself, count calories, or follow the latest craze as long as you eat foods with a high fiber content. The right types of foods, in the right quantities satisfy your appetite and reduce your waistline at the same time.
Ensure you eat no more than 20 grams of fat and make sure you eat at least 30 grams of fiber foods daily.
