In these pages, you'll see that others are succeeding at this program, or have already succeeded. People such as Mary T., whose heart-warming story is representative of what this diet can do for you.

Mary is one of the "miracles" that Ms. Laura Shapiro mentioned in the Newsweek article about the program.

Five days after Mary started Dr. Shintani's program, she stopped her twice-a-day insulin injections (under very close physicians' supervision) and hasn't needed one since. She says, "I have more energy, I sleep less. This diet has literally changed my life.“

On the HawaiiDiet™, Hawaii's Governor Benjamin

Cayetano reduced his cholesterol from 234 mg/dl down to 162 mg/dl. His "good cholesterol" increased from 26 to 32. His triglyceride fell 516 points from 617 mg/dl to a normal level of 83 mg/dl (normal is 50 to 150 mg/dl).

And then there is Ellen K., who told me: "This is the

greatest diet in the world," as she stepped on my

office scale. She had lost 60 pounds after years of

failing on every other diet. She looked better than

she had in years, her skin was glowing, and she

had new vitality and a renewed zest for life.

There are many others, far too many to list here.

These few testimonials are just a representation of

what is possible with the HawaiiDiet™.

This program is not a diet in the conventional sense

of the word. It is, rather, a health program that

shows you how to lose weight by maximizing your

health with- out so-called dieting. Whereas most

weight loss diets rely upon deprivation and rigorous

willpower, the Hawaii-Diet™ Program utilizes your

natural enjoyment of eating. It shows you how to

replace unhealthy, fat- promoting foods with

healthy, delicious foods which satisfy in every way.

The HawaiiDiet™ includes the enhancement of the health of the whole person, including spiritual, mental, emotional and physical aspects, through the focus on food and diet. It includes exercise, stress reduction, and a perspective on life and health based on an understanding of universal principles as embodied in traditional Hawaiian concepts and a faith in God. When all of these aspects are in harmony, your health is maximized. And when your health is maximized, your excess weight dis-appears automatically. Energy levels increase and you become more effective in every way. You may even notice a measure of spiritual growth that may affect you in very personal ways.

There is no calorie counting or portion size restriction on the HawaiiDiet™. It is an "all you can eat" health program that emphasizes the type of food eaten rather than the quantity of food eaten. In fact, in our studies, people wind up eating MORE food than ever and still lose weight. For more information about the science behind this phenomenon, please refer to my books: Dr. Shintani's Eat More, Weigh Less® Diet and Dr. Shintani's Eat More, Weigh Less® Cookbook.

The HawaiiDiet™ employs the best of both worlds:

it seeks to integrate ancient wisdom with modern science. Leading edge research from nutritionists and physicians is beginning to support the value of the HawaiiDiet's™ approach. New information on the benefits of eating whole grains, vegetables and fruit is a lesson in why our ancestors rarely suffered from chronic, diet-related diseases that plague us today, nor did they have problems with obesity. They knew something that we are only beginning to relearn. Therefore, while the HawaiiDiet™ is grounded in good science, it looks to ancient wisdom found in traditional Hawaiian principles and employs this wisdom as a compass for the present

HawaiiDiet™ Program, as well as for future research.

This made it easy to draw upon the wisdom of the ancient Hawaiians to provide an example of optimum diet and lifestyle practices. Therefore, Hawaii is used as a model for many traditional cultures: the diet and lifestyle principles are basic to those of most other ethnic groups, with few variations in regional tastes, food availability, and cultural practices. To simplify the application of this concept, a diagram known as the "HawaiiDiet™ Pyra- mid" is used to assist in the selection of types and combinations of foods. The diet is high in whole complex carbohydrates, very low in fat, has little or no cholesterol, and is high in plant-based foods.

Because the HawaiiDiet™ is based on traditional diets from many cultures, it recognizes that some individuals may be adapted to different dietary patterns than others. For example, a higher fat Mediterranean- style diet may be acceptable in individuals who are adapted to such a diet. The HawaiiDiet™ allows for the tailoring of the diet to fit individual needs and genetic make up.

Because the HawaiiDiet™ embraces traditional eat- ing patterns from cultures around the world, the choices of foods are virtually endless. The diet can be made of foods that are available in your local supermarket and are simple to prepare, or it can be made of foods that are exotic and prepared by a gourmet chef. Thus, the HawaiiDiet™ can be used by anyone and incorporated into their lifestyle for the rest of their lives.

The SMI is one of the tools which will simplify the diet for you and which will make it easy to stick with the HawaiiDiet™ for the rest of your life. This index is a food table found at the back of this book and in greater detail in Dr. Shintani's Eat More, Weigh Less® Diet book, which distils the quality and quantity of any given food down to one easy-to-read number.
