The Carb Reset: Store Less Fat, Burn the Rest, and Harness the Power of Carbs to Lose Weight

"In The Carb Reset, Harley guides readers through how and why your body stores or burns fat, expertly cutting through the noise of toxic diet culture. He details why bread, pasta, rice, and fruit should be part of every healthy meal, and he lays out the right combination and quantity of nutrients that speeds fat loss, reduces fat storage, and improves your hormonal balance.

The Carb Reset includes: 50 recipes, most of which require as little as five minutes of preparation, and can be put together in 20 to 30 minutes; Two weeks of meal plans with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free swaps and an "add a treat a week" strategy to work in your favorite dessert or snack; Handy line illustrations of "PATH plates" that show you how to put meals together at home. The Carb Reset puts readers in control of their health, resetting their relationship with the foods they love and thought they had to forego, while reshaping their approach to eating well for life"--
