The Traffic Light Diet

This diet book is for people who want something really simple that encourages healthy eating and fits in with their daily lifestyle.

Basically The Traffic Light Diet splits foods into three groups based on a combination of how high in fat and calories they are and their relative nutrition value. To follow the diet you simply eat foods according to the traffic light system.

• Green Foods - Eat as much as you like
• Amber Foods - Eat moderate amounts
• Red Foods - Eat very occasionally or in very small amounts

The book includes a comprehensive list of foods giving their traffic light status plus advice on portion sizes for different people. It also has a selection of easy to prepare recipes, a variety of seven day diet plans and a helpful section on exercise.

The Traffic Light Diet is based on all the main recommendations of the 2004 Commons Select Committee report on obesity. This comes through in the book's 'healthy eating' approach. The idea being that if you eat healthily (and not too much) you'll lose weight. Great for those who are able to (honestly) limit portion sizes but perhaps not measured enough for those less disciplined.
