Orthomolecular Diet The Paleolithic Paradigm with a Foreword by Barry Sears, Ph.D., author of The Zone Also by Richard Heinrich: Starch Madness Orthomolecular Diet is a report, an exacting analysis of the conclusions of many researchers. The contents of thirty books are woven into a pattern of fitness and healthy diet. The shibboleths of eating, starch, fat, and cholesterol are explained from many viewpoints. The central conclusion is the superiority of the Zone Diet of Barry Sears. It is proven by pre-history. Harvard epidemiology approves its food selections, and it is eye-opening to learn the true "Paleolithic diet" and how the Zone Diet of Barry Sears fulfills it. Diet is half the equation. The other half is fitness. Learn the research on stress and the meshing of aerobics. Fit and fat is healthier than thin and out of shape. Richard Heinrich recounts his long quest to fit his broad, stocky, mesomorphic body into diet patterns set up by slender ectomorphs who became diet experts partially because they were able to withstand grain diets. They felt good while eating high glycemic foods (starch) in excessive proportion, culminating in the 1992 Pyramid that created the fattest society since the Egyptians four millennia ago. Mr. Heinrich has lived and has experienced every diet of the past sixty years, starting with the Grapefruit Diet in 1943 and too many calorie-counting, failed diets to mention. Along the way he learned fitness, which permits this writing at age 80. Says the author: Barry Sears of Zone Diet fame says in the Foreword that we cannot ignore the genetic makeup and the present negative consequences of our hormonal makeup. Orthomolecular Diet, which is the author's sixty-year diet odyssey, starts with the diet of Stone Age man, the diet of evolution. The rest of the book explains how 21st-century foods can replicate those of prehistory. Chapters 2 and 3 provide a training food table with Harvard University epidemiology, thirty-year studies of 130,000 nurses. Then three powerful chapters define the low sugar, low glycemic approaches to healthy diets. First is Michel Montignac who provided popular knowledge of glycemics, then the 150-year-old Atkins diet, and finally the intense biochemical skills of Barry Sears who truly understands foods and the human hormonal systems and defines precisely the diet patterns of macro nutrients and vitamins to provide us the diet for the 21st century: the hormones insulin and glucagons kept in fine balance by the Zone along with a proper balance between Omega 3 and Omega 6 fats that will give health and a body of pleasing proportion. The Wind Up chapters provide Orthomolecular details, vitamins, water, stress, aerobics, and tie together Fitness, Fatness and Wellness. Don't expect recipes; do expect to learn and to study and to be able to formulate your own menus and new life's approach.
