The Dr. Scotti Diet is effective and easy to follow because it is tailored to your specific metabolism, which is as unique to you as your DNA. It is built upon the idea that each of us metabolize foods in different ways. Thus, foods that cause weight-gain in one person might have no effect or actually cause weight loss in others. As such, throughout the course of this diet, you will discover which foods are Weight Gaining, Weight Neutral or Weight Losing, for you. And therein lies the basis for this plan for lifelong weight control.
