A Recipe For Success: What YOU can Learn About Coping in a Food-Bombarded World From People With Prader-Willi Syndrome, an Extreme Eating Disorder (HC

"In North America, 64% of adults and 25% of children are overweight or obese. We are bombarded by food; it is everywhere we turn. People with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) are an untapped expertise in combating this problem. People with this genetic disorder gain approximately 20-30% more weight on 50% less calories, and are driven to eat. The traditional approach to this syndrome was to lock up all food, and control, restrict, and supervise all activity. While people with PWS were kept alive, they had no quality of life. Today, there are leaders within the PWS community who are taking cutting-edge approaches to combating both health and quality of life issues. Their secrets are revealed within this book."--BOOK JACKET.Kinash, Shelley is the author of 'A Recipe For Success: What YOU can Learn About Coping in a Food-Bombarded World From People With Prader-Willi Syndrome, an Extreme Eating Disorder (HC', published 2007 under ISBN 9781593118440 and ISBN 1593118449.
