Just in time for resolution season comes the second edition of The Mayo Clinic Diet.
“We got the basics right in the first edition,” says Dr. Donald Hensrud, lead author and medical editor of the diet book. “With this update, we’ve made it an even better lifestyle program.”
The Mayo Clinic Diet makes it possible to eat more and weigh less by breaking bad habits and adopting healthy new ones. There’s no calorie counting or rigid rules, and the plan can be personalized.
