Guide Review
The Ice Cream Diet - Holly McCord
Eat ice cream every day to lose weight and get healthier! According to Prevention Magazine, if your body doesn't get enough calcium, fat cells are triggered to store more fat. In a recent study, people getting their calcium from dairy products lost a much higher percentage of weight than the people on calcium supplements.

Other health benefits include: Keeps bones strong, lowers high blood pressure, lowers cravings, eases PMS symptoms, fights colon cancer, stops bingeing, cuts stroke risk, boosts immunity, and helps prevents kidney stones.

The book recommends 1 cup of ice cream (reduced calorie choices preferred) per day for women, 1 1/2 cups for men.
