Slim Down, Look Great, Be Healthy—The Full Plate Diet (TM) is based on eating foods our Moms said we should eat— fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans & peas, and nuts & seeds. You can eat meat—just follow Mom’s advice. No yo-yo—you can stay on this diet because you won’t feel deprived—won’t have to eat tiny portions. You get started by making small changes, not big ones. No hassle—you don’t have to count calories, you can shop at your regular grocery store, and spend less on food. Big health payoffs include heart health, cancer fighting, diabetes friendly, more energy and long life. Lots of medical research backing The Full Plate Diet (TM).
