Research Study Produces Unprecedented Results – that a high nutrient dense diet may be the most health favorable and effective way to lose weight.

Comparison: Weight Watchers “proudly” reports that their users average a 3% (three-percent) weight loss over two years. That equated to just 4.5 pounds for a 150lb person.

A research study was conducted by Dr. Barbara Sarter PhD., University of Southern California of and Dr. Colin Campbell PhD., Professor, Cornell University and author of The China Study on the effects of the “Effect of a High Nutrient Density Diet on Long-Term Weight Loss.”
