Book Reviews of Toning for Teens: The 20-Minute Workout that Makes You Look Good and Feel Great!
Book Review: Vedral Provides Teens with Inaccurate and Dangerous Advice
Summary: 1 Stars
While I found the actual workout easy to follow and challenging, the diet advice brought me to an unhealthful physical and mental state. The guide suggests 15-20 grams of fat each day, while the FDA recommends 65 grams. For many smaller teens, 15-20 might be ideal. For others, it is a starvation diet. When I followed her advice (I am 15), I started daydreaming about food constantly, my metabolic rate slowed, and I eventually fainted due to malnourishment.
She also does not differentiate between so-called good and bad fats. Avocados and nuts contain good fats (polyunsaturated, monounsaturated,and Omega 3), yet she lists them as unhealthful, lumped into a category with foods that contain saturated and trans (bad) fats.
Her autobiographical sketch discloses the source of her nutritional ignorance. She has a PHD, but in what? Probably English, because she claims she was once an English Teacher, and she does not list any actual credentials in the fields of Exercise and Health.
This book presents a significant danger and should be taken off the shelves.
