In this book, Jacques Fricker shares with readers the results of his experience as a nutritionist and physician. He offers each type of dieter a personalised step-by-step weight-loss programme — thus guaranteeing that users will not endanger their health, as is the case with many trendy diets.
The user-friendly programmes are easy to follow and will not conflict with dieters’ daily lives or pleasure — for one of the great attractions of the “Fricker method” is that no foods are banned.

Jacques Fricker is a physician specialising in nutrition at Hôpital Bichat, in Paris, and a consultant for the Agence Française de Sécurité Sanitaire des Aliments (AFSSA). He was a research fellow for many years at INSERM. His works on nutrition and slimming have been widely acclaimed by readers.
