LA DRA. JANE DELGADO OFRECE A LOS LECTORES LA VERDADERA SOLUCIÓN PARA PERDER PESO Y NO RECUPERARLO EN LA NUEVA GUÍA DE “BUENA SALUD®” ¬ Cómo cambiar nuestra relación con la comida y la alimentación. ¬ Controle las fuerzas externas que lo hacen comer. ¬ Conozca el impacto de los factores biológicos, el azúcar y la grasa. ¬ Supere las barreras que le impiden perder peso. ¬ Los más recientes descubrimientos científicos e historias de la vida real. “Tener hambre no debe ser un resorte que nos empuja a comer de inmediato; debe ser una sensación que debemos aprender a calibrar”, aconseja la Dra. Jane L. Delgado en LA NUEVA DIETA SIN TRUCOS: LA GUÍA DE BUENA SALUD® PARA PERDER PESO Y NO RECUPERARLO. La Dra. Delgado, quien ejerce como sicóloga clínica y además es presidenta y directora ejecutiva de la Alianza Nacional para la Salud de los Hispanos (National Alliance for Hispanic Health), conoce en carne propia los desafíos de perder peso sin recuperarlo. Después de tener sobrepeso durante muchos años, perdió 51 libras y no las ha recuperado. “Este libro no es para todos, sino para todos nosotros que tenemos un poco de sobrepeso y esperamos encontrar la manera de obtener los resultados que deseamos sin volver a engordar”, dijo la Dra. Delgado. La Dra. Delgado explicó que “Perder peso y no recuperarlo depende de cada persona. No hay un solo método que surte efecto para todos. Se debe empezar por entender lo más posible sobre uno mismo y las fuerzas externas que hacen que uno coma. Al conocer los muchos factores que nos llevan a comer, qué comemos y cuándo comemos, aprendemos a dominarlos”. LA NUEVA DIETA SIN TRUCOS continúa la galardonada serie de Guías de Buena Salud® de la Dra. Delgado y se publicará simultáneamente en inglés y español en la primavera (Buena Salud Press, junio del 2017). Según el Centro de Control y Prevención de Enfermedades (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention o CDC), la obesidad afecta a más de un tercio de la población. Y a pesar de todo lo que se dice y hace para combatir esta epidemia, las cifras indican que, como nación, seguimos engordando. Incluso cuando las personas adelgazan, la mayoría vuelve a recuperar el peso al cabo de dos años. Por eso este libro es tan útil, porque la pérdida de peso debe adaptarse a cada persona, con el entendimiento de que el peso es tan solo un indicador aproximado de la salud. LA NUEVA DIETA SIN TRUCOS explica todo lo que los lectores deben saber sobre perder peso y los muchos obstáculos que debe reconocer la persona. En un tono amistoso y familiar, responde las preguntas más frecuentes sobre el peso saludable, desacredita el mito común de que todo depende de la fuerza de voluntad y ofrece consejos para tener éxito toda la vida. Al tomar conciencia de los factores que impiden que cada persona pierda peso y a la vez tratar el papel clave que tiene el hambre para no recuperar el peso perdido, la Dra. Delgado explica: • qué es el peso y qué mide en realidad; • cómo superar las creencias sociales y culturales sobre la alimentación; • los diversos tipos de alimentos y su impacto sobre cuánto comemos; • los factores biológicos y las diferencias entre las personas; • la relación entre el azúcar y la alimentación, además de trastornos crónicos como la diabetes y las enfermedades del corazón, y • la importancia de hacer ejercicio y anotar lo que se come para mantener una talla saludable. Las historias de la vida real que se incluyen en este libro demuestran las diferencias en las maneras en que los hombres y mujeres enfrentan el sobrepeso, y la Dra. Delgado ofrece estrategias que pueden ayudar. LA NUEVA DIETA SIN TRUCOS: LA GUÍA DE BUENA SALUD® PARA PERDER PESO Y NO RECUPERARLO se basa en el éxito y ofrece estrategias con fundamentos científicos y consejos cariñosos que los guiarán a mejorar su vida y ser más sanos. Es un libro sobre perder peso para el resto de nosotros, escrito por una promotora de la salud en la que podemos confiar.

Buena Salud Press

AS FEATURED IN REDBOOK "One of the many reasons to love The NEW No Gimmick Diet is this sane advice from author Jane L. Delgado, Ph.D.: Stop thinking it’s about willpower. Struggling to lose weight is not a moral failure, she says. It takes strategies like patience: being okay with a little bit of hunger, eating slowly, and knowing it doesn’t happen overnight." --REDBOOK (July/August 2017) DR. JANE DELGADO OFFERS READERS THE REAL STORY ON HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT AND KEEP IT OFF IN NEW “BUENA SALUD®” GUIDE ¬ Cutting-edge science and real-life stories. ¬ How to rethink and redo our relationship with food and eating. ¬ The external forces that make you eat. ¬ The impact of your biology, sugar, and fat. ¬ Overcoming barriers to successful weight loss. “Being hungry should not be an ‘on’ switch to eat; it should be a dial that we need to learn to calibrate,” advises Dr. Jane L. Delgado in THE NEW NO GIMMICK DIET — THE BUENA SALUD® GUIDE TO LOSING WEIGHT AND KEEPING IT OFF. A practicing clinical psychologist, as well as the president and CEO of the National Alliance for Hispanic Health, Dr. Delgado knows first-hand the challenges of losing weight and keeping it off. After years of carrying excess weight she lost 51 pounds and has maintained her weight loss. “This book is not for everybody, but it is for all of us who carry some excess weight, who are hoping to find a way to get the results we want to achieve, and who want to keep the weight off,” says Dr. Delgado. Dr. Delgado, goes on to explain that “Losing weight and keeping it off is about the individual. There is no one method that will work for everyone. You begin by understanding as much as possible about yourself and what are the external forces that make you eat. By knowing the many factors that drive how we eat, what we eat, and when we eat, we can learn to master them.” THE NEW NO GIMMICK DIET continues Dr. Delgado’s award-winning Buena Salad® Guide series and is being published simultaneously this Spring in English and Spanish (Buena Salud Press, June 2017). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than one third of all people are more than overweight. And while much is said and done to combat the obesity epidemic the evidence show that as a nation we are only getting bigger. In fact, within two years most people gain back the weight they lost. That is why this book is so helpful because weight loss must be tailored to the individual with the understanding that it is only a rough measure of how healthy a person is. THE NEW NO GIMMICK DIET explains everything readers need to know about weight loss and the many obstacles a person needs to recognize. In a warm and conversational tone, it answers the most asked questions about healthy weight, debunks the common myth that it is all about willpower, and offers tips for life long success. Acknowledging the factors that keep each person from losing weight while also addressing the key role of hunger in maintaining weight loss Dr. Delgado addresses: • what is weight and what it actually measures; • how to overcome social and cultural beliefs about eating; • the various types of foods and their impact on how much we eat; • the biological factors and differences among people; • the relationship between sugar and eating as well as chronic conditions such as diabetes and heart disease; and, • the role of exercise and tracking in maintaining a healthy size. The real-life stories featured in the book illustrate the differences in how men and women deal with excess weight, and Dr. Delgado provides strategies that can help. THE NEW NO GIMMICK DIET THE BUENA SALUD® GUIDE TO LOSING WEIGHT AND KEEPING IT OFF is based on success and offers the science based strategies and caring advice that will guide them to make their lives better and healthier. This is a weight loss book for the rest of us from a health advocate we can trust.

Advances over the last decade have transformed our thinking about depression, ourselves, and our lives. Motivated by the rise in COVID-19 related depression, Dr. Jane L. Delgado has released The Buena Salud(R) Guide to Understanding Depression and Enjoying Life published simultaneously in English and Spanish (Buena Salud Press, Pub Date: August 2020). This brand-new volume in the acclaimed Buena Salud(R) series of health books, written by the president and CEO of the National Alliance for Hispanic Health and a practicing clinical psychologist, breaks stigmas associated with depression and dispenses invaluable science-based advice. With real-life stories throughout, the book informs, supports, and delivers the latest in health information and the kind of caring advice that readers can readily use in their daily life. In the book's introduction Dr. Delgado says "COVID-19 changed our country and the world." Dr. Delgado makes clear that, "We all go through depression at some point in life - some of us more often than others. Depression is neither a way of life nor something that just has to be endured. None of us should spend our lives suffering, and that is why this book is so important. It is my hope that by understanding depression and the actions you can take against it, you will carve a new path for yourself. This is about taking life one step at a time and rediscovering yourself. This is a call to action for your body, mind, and spirit."The book acknowledges the factors that keep people from seeking help for depression and offers three key tools to frame a healthier life. She discusses ways to actualize these self-statements, the challenges that need to be overcome, and the ways to implement them. In seeking treatment, Dr. Delgado shares key questions about depression to ask a health care provider, as well as what to consider when choosing a licensed mental health professional. She also shares guidance on non-commercial helplines and the best online sources for information on depression in both English and Spanish At a time of great national stress, and a rise in depression in American families, the information in this book is intended to make life better for all-those with depression, those who know someone who is depressed, and those of us who have to live the consequences of untreated depression. With over 25,000 copies already in American homes, the BUENA SALUD(R) books have become essential family guides for health and well-being.
