«Comer para adelgazar» is the dietetics and nutrition essay by Michel Montignac, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover (215 pages, in Spanish).
Montignac questions the theory of calories and traditional dietetics, which he considers lacking in scientific foundation, to propose a weight-loss method based on good cooking and the choice of foods. The book presents an approach that reconciles dietetics and gastronomy, making it possible to lose weight without going hungry or submitting to restrictive regimes.
Hardcover edition from Círculo de Lectores, published in 1994, translated from the French by María Isidra Mencos and Graciela D'Angelo. The original title is «Je mange, donc, je maigris».
Recommended for those seeking to lose weight without giving up eating and wishing to understand the fundamentals of nutrition before embarking on a diet.
Michel Montignac was a French diet developer who originally created the Montignac diet to help himself lose weight, which he based on research that focuses on the glycemic index of foods, which affects the amount of glucose delivered to the blood after eating. The diet, which distinguishes between good and bad carbohydrates, became the basis for best-selling books and a chain of restaurants and stores promoting his diet regimen and was one of the theoretical predecessors of the South Beach Diet.
