The Low GI Diet

Description

The 2-million-copy-selling Glucose Revolution authors bring us the definitive low-GI diet that's realistic, attainable - and that works. Forget Atkins. Low-GI eating has now become established as the biggest and healthiest new diet trend. From the original team who brought us THE NEW GLUCOSE REVOLUTION, here is a simple twelve-week diet action plan which shows you exactly how to switch to a low GI lifestyle. The science behind the NEW GLUCOSE REVOLUTION series has turned around the way people view dieting and carbohydrates. This book presents the GLUCOSE REVOLUTION principles in an easy-to-understand diet. There are delicious recipes and meal plans to help you choose the best foods, plus exercise suggestions and regular progress checks to inspire and reward. The six months ahead are often the make-or-break months for weight loss, so the authors look in detail at this time and provide encouraging targets and case studies. Simple and lasting, this is the perfect diet book for those wishing to adopt - and stick to - the low-GI lifestyle.
