The Weight Loss Cure They Don’t Want You to Know About is an interesting book that covers quite a lot of shaky ground. If you’re sick of trying several different diets that never seem to work, you may be tempted to buy it and give it a whirl. However, it’s a pretty far fetched read in some points, and you may want to bring a pretty big salt shaker with you when you read it.

The author claims that several years ago the cure for obesity was discovered, but the FDA, AMA and several officials, doctors and diet gurus worked to keep it a secret. This revolutionary cure apparently details the fact that overweight people have urges to eat when they are not hungry, more fat stores than normal and a low metabolism. Well, duh.

Despite this earth shattering start, it gets better. The author recommends that in addition to trying the diet plan (we’ll get to that in a second), you should get daily injections of a hormone known as HCG. Please note that the FDA has not approved the use of this hormone for weight loss and we can’t really recommend that anyone try it. It’s commonly used by pregnant women, but that does not mean that it is safe for everyone.

Ok, onto the diet plan. For thirty days, if you do decide to give this plan a test drive, you will only be able to eat foods that are 100% organic. Easy enough, but a little expensive for most people. Our main problem was that the author didn’t go into which organic foods were good, and how much you should be eating of each one. Sure, organic beef is good, but you don’t want to eat an entire side of it.

Next up, in addition to your organic food and hormone injections, you’ll need to shell out money for some very pricey supplements to go along with everything. Bottom line, this diet will definitely hurt your bottom line. If you can find a doctor to give you the injections and hopefully you won’t, you’ll be forced to pay for them since your insurance won’t cover it.

Did we mention that the author is a convicted criminal and has no background in health or wellness? If you had any lingering hopes about trying this diet, that should be the kicker. Buy the book, but only to use as a guide of what not to do. This is the perfect example of a diet plan that can actually do more harm than good and we cannot recommend this book by any stretch of the imagination. Save your money, and start eating healthy balanced meals and workout. That’s the real secret to weight loss, and no one will ever try to claim that the information has been hidden from you. How this book made the best seller lists is one of life’s great mysteries.
