4. This program is not a diet in the conventional sense of
the word. It is, rather, a health program that shows
you how to lose weight by maximizing your health
with- out so-called dieting. Whereas most weight loss
diets rely upon deprivation and rigorous
willpower, the Hawaii-Diet™ Program utilizes your
natural enjoyment of eating. It shows you how to
replace unhealthy, fat- promoting foods with
healthy, delicious foods which satisfy in every way.

5. Or perhaps you are more concerned about your health

back. In any case, the HawaiiDiet™ makes it possible
for you to eat all the delicious food you want, of any
ethnic cuisine, while still losing weight and restoring
your health.

8. There is no calorie counting or portion size restriction
on the HawaiiDiet™. It is an "all you can eat" health
program that emphasizes the type of food eaten
rather than the quantity of food eaten. In fact, in our
studies, people wind up eating MORE food than ever
and still lose weight. For more information about the
science behind this phenomenon, please refer to my
books: Dr. Shintani's Eat More, Weigh Less® Diet and
Dr. Shintani's Eat More, Weigh Less® Cookbook.

9. The HawaiiDiet™ employs the best of both worlds: it
seeks to integrate ancient wisdom with modern science.
They knew something that we are only beginning to
relearn.
Therefore, while the HawaiiDiet™ is grounded in good
science, it looks to ancient wisdom found in traditional
Hawaiian principles and employs this wisdom as a
compass for the present HawaiiDiet™ Program, as well as
for future research.

10. In my research into traditional diets, I began to see
patterns established with regard to the traditional/
ancient diets of the healthiest, longest-living cultures.
With few exceptions, the healthiest traditional
cultures ate a diet similar to that of the ancient
Hawaiians in macronutrient content, and also
practiced lifestyle principles similar to those of
ancient Hawaii.

11. Because the HawaiiDiet™ is based on traditional
diets from many cultures, it recognizes that some
individuals may be adapted to different dietary
patterns than others. For example, a higher fat
Mediterranean- style diet may be acceptable in
individuals who are adapted to such a diet.

13. The "Mass Index of Food," or "SMI," (which stands for
the Shintani Mass Index of Food) is a new concept in
the evaluation of the weight-loss-inducing effect of
food. It is also known as the "Eat More Index," or
"EMI," described in my other book, the original Dr.
Shintani's Eat More, Weigh Less® Diet.
