What is Banta Diet?

Answered By: crabcakes-ga on 14 Mar 2004 09:26 PST
 
Hello ahealer,

The Banta diet was developed by a Dr. Zilberter, in Sweden.
According to the BantaDiet.com  site: "Banta Diet is a revolutionary
all-you-can-eat program that allows you to lose weight without hunger
and without counting calories, carbs, or fat.?.
As with any diet, this diet incorporates exercise. The diet seems to
focus on high fat foods that contain a high ?fat burning index?.

The site says? Foods with high Fat Burning Index enable your body to
switch its metabolism from the carbohydrate biochemical pathway to the
more natural and healthy fat biochemical pathway -- the only one that
burns body fat for fuel.?
http://www.bantadiet.com/inside
http://www.bantadiet.com/? 

See a sample diet on the left hand column of this page:
http://www.bantadiet.com/sample_meals/breakfast.htm

A sample breakfast from Bantadiet.com:
Bacon and Cheese Puff 
8 slices bacon
2 medium onions, sliced
12 slices sunflower bread (recipe included)
1/2 pound Swiss cheese, shredded
8 eggs
4 cups heavy creams
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
red pepper sauce to taste
Cook bacon until crisp; drain and crumble. Cook the onions in leftover
bacon grease. Arrange half the bread slices in a single layer in
bottom of greased casserole. Sprinkle with half of each: crumbled
bacon, onions and cheese.
Combine remaining ingredients; pour over top layer in pan. Bake at 375
degrees until top is puffed.
The site sells two plans? A Do it Yourself Plan, for $49USD a month,
and one with the assistance of Dr. Zilberter, for $120 USD. I was
unable to find any books on the Banta diet at Amazon.com.

Hope this helps! Please ask for an Answer Clarification, before
rating, if any part of my answer is unclear.

The URLs provided in the answer are wrong. The best way to get there
is starting with domain URL: http://bantadiet.com - then using
navigation buttons e.g., inside, fat burning index, sample meals,
success stories, or getting started. For some reason, the domain URL
remains whenever you move within the site.

Thank you dabadmin, for your partially correct, but terse comment. The
links in the answer are not wrong, but the first one has since been
broken. It was most certainly working when I penned the answer *6*
months ago. The second link, however, takes the customer to the exact
link you provided. Google Answers can not possibly know whenever a
site changes, adds, or removes pages from it's site.

The URL of the site remains the same, no matter which link you click
onto, becasue the site is written in frames.

Hi crabcakes,

Sorry I didn't make myself clear. I do understand that broken links
are mostly webmaster's fault, not yours (or mine) - in this case, it
seems to be nobody's fault since thay definitely changed their site's
structure.  It was just my $0.02 in case people would try to click :)
