Combat Fat! America's Revolutionary 8-Week Fat-Loss Program

More than half of all Americans are overweight and 24 percent are considered obese by the government's standards. Between 1998 and 1999 obesity rose six percent, affecting all regions of the country and all demographic groups. These numbers make it clear that America is in a body fat crisis. The health consequences are enormous -- diabetes, heart disease, cancer, among others. Obesity and lack of physical activity is the second leading cause of premature death in the United States -- second only to tobacco! Book jacket.Alfieri, Rosemarie is the author of 'Combat Fat!
