The Social Network Diet will help you make healthy changes in your life by improving your environment—and in so doing, transforming the world. It is not your classic diet book. It is not an exercise manual. It is unlike any other nutrition and physical activity plan you have ever seen. It is a guide, rooted in exciting new research, on how to make lasting, positive change in your life by creating a supportive social network and a favorable food and physical activity environment.

“Hats off to Dr. Nelson for illuminating the critical but often overlooked ways that social networks can contribute to our health. And for giving us very clear maps for building the supportive communities we need to create vibrant health every day.”— Christiane Northrup, M.D., ob/gyn physician and author of the New York Times bestsellers, Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom and The Wisdom of Menopause

“The Social Network Diet is a strong, smart, one-of-a-kind guide to making healthy change in your own life and in the lives of those around you. Social revolutions start with an individual and ripple from person to person, city to city, across the country. If social networking can change governments, why can’t it change how we eat and manage our weight? Well, it can. In this game-changing book, Dr. Miriam Nelson tells you how your simple human interactions can make you—and those around you—successful in being fit and healthy once and for all.”— Nancy Snyderman, MD, FACS, NBC News Chief Medical Editor
