About Michael Applebaum, MD, JD, FCLM
Michael
Applebaum, MD, JD, FCLM is a medical doctor and a lawyer.
He
has earned seven separate fitness certifications, more than any other medical
doctor.
Following
a partially successful open-heart surgery, he was unhappy with the cardiac rehab
program prescribed by his physicians.
So
he developed his own.
His
results were so striking that strangers approached him asking for help.
Among
their requests was help in losing weight.
Since
simple weight loss is the easiest part of any fitness program and people
overwhelmingly fail, Dr. Applebaum investigated the diet recommendations of the
experts.
His
conclusion is that the diet experts, including doctors, diet gurus, the
government and the pharmaceutical industry, have been misleading us with bad
weight loss advice based on a simple mistake.
(For examples of how substantial the consequences of a simple mistake can be, click here, here, here (Popeye) and here, here, here (NASA).)
The consequences of their bad advice are: impossible to follow diets, unnecessary surgeries, needless drugging, decreased participation in life, greater weight gain, suffering, illness and death from continuing overweight and obesity.
Dr.
Applebaum is the author of four fitness books: Why Diets Fail: The Simple
Mistake That Ruins Millions Of Lives, MASSematics tm: How To
Get Rich By Not Dieting, The FitnessMed tm Guide To Healthy Eating
and Be Your Own Personal Trainer ("BYOPT tm").
