How to Lose Weight with a Minimum of Willpower
Book • 1964
Published in 1964, 'The Drinking Man's Diet' by Robert Cameron is a fad diet that gained significant popularity.

It advocates a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet that allows for the consumption of alcohol in moderation.

The diet emphasizes foods high in protein and low in carbohydrates, such as meat, fish, eggs, and cheese, while restricting high-carbohydrate foods like bread, pasta, and rice.

Although it sold over 2.

4 million copies in 13 languages, the diet has been criticized by nutritionists for its lack of scientific basis and potential health risks.
