Author’s Biography

Born in 1943, Pierre Dukan has been a nutritionist and medical doctor for more than thirty years, specialising in eating behaviour and nutritional re-education.

Author of numerous books on the subject, he is recognised as one of the leading experts in nutrition and has contributed to the scientific development of the field.

Pierre Dukan worked in the department of the renowned Professor Dreyfus at Saint-Louis Hospital in Paris, where he became the first to apply a protein-based diet, later sharing it with the public through his best-selling book The Dukan Diet (Je ne sais pas maigrir in French).

Structured in four simple yet highly effective phases, the Dukan Method has already helped more than a million people achieve lasting results.

Far from promoting extreme thinness, Dr Dukan values natural curves, as expressed in his book Men Prefer Curves (Les hommes préfèrent les rondes).

He is the author of many works, including the best-seller The Dukan Method, as well as The Complete Illustrated Dukan Recipes and Dukan Recipes, published by Éditions Flammarion.
