The doctor duo that brought you to the low-carb lifestyle shows you how to regain in midlife the figure of sleek, flat-bellied youth. This is the first book to deal specifically with the issues we face in the next stage of life, providing a plan for eliminating the unhealthy fat that accumulates around the organs--visceral fat--that is the true cause of the middle-aged bulge. With the right diet, visceral fat can be quickly reduced and eliminated, enhancing both your looks and your health. You will learn: how eating saturated fat can actively trim your middle; why the "eat less, exercise more" prescription fails--and what to do about it; why "inner" and "outer" tube fat measurements are important to your health; and how to fight the fat stored inside your liver that leads to hard-to-lose middle-body flab.--From publisher description.
