Causes of Weight Gain in EDS (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798661266637)

For far too long individuals with EDS have been informed that their weight gain is a result of taking more calories in than they are expending. Embarking on a calorie restricted diet does not appear to change the outcome though. Their efforts often leave them feeling deflated and angry. The conflicting opinions may drive a rift between themselves and those giving health care. The author states that calorie restricted diets, in those with chronic conditions, like EDS are often counterproductive because there are many other reasons why weight gain occurs. It is not just a case of overeating. Cutting calories may mean that the condition worsens due to inadequate nutrition. In addition, it will not address the real reason for that weight gain.The author sympathetically and expertly cuts through the current thinking about weight gain and reveals the real reasons why those with EDS may find it so difficult to lose weight.This book is a revelation which anyone with a chronic condition should consider reading.
