Dieting is a multi-billion dollar business. Even most obesity researchers are funded by the diet industry. Dieting is the same thing. Here is the one big difference. Dieting is at an all time low. NPD said recently that just 26% of women are dieting - along with 16% of men.

Whats the best way to diet? One approach that is working for many people today is to use PC software to help them diet. Of all the software on the market, one effective program is called Diet Power. Installed on your PC, Diet Power helps you lose weight on any diet"or no diet at all.

One of Diet Power's strong points is that it keeps track of nutrients so you can get the right nutrients to fight various diseases including heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, osteoporosis, and other ailments.

Diet Power looks at your personal metabolism and then recommends your calorie budget. As your metabolism changes so does the recommended advice from Diet Power.

What does "metabolism" mean? Metabolism refers to the number of calories needed by your body to maintain your current weight. For example, for an average weight individual this could be approximately 2000 calories each day. However, your metabolism can vary as much as thirty percent from average metabolism. For example, if you are in the lower end of the metabolism range, eating the 2000 calories could make you gain alot- sixty three pounds a year.

To make matters worse, everyones metabolism fluctuates. It rises or falls as you gain or lose weight, alter your diet, take certain drugs, change your exercise routine, or catch a cold or the flu. If youre a woman, your metabolism may also ebb and flow with your menstrual cycle.

One problem with most dieting software programs is that they assume you have an average metabolism which may or may not be the case. Diet Power, however, does not assume this.
