A Worth While Book

People interested in the 40-30-30 nutrition plan can find many interesting and helpful tips in this book. It also contains some great recipes. While it is not an exciting read, I found that the concepts presented one at a time with explanation helped my to enhance my understanding of what works with 40-30-30 nutrition. The recipes are useful in themselves and also served as examples for me with my own meal planning.The first book in the Daoust's series (40-30-30 Fat Burning Nutrition) is the "bible" and I keep it in easy reach all the time for the tables it contains, but "Formula 101" has helped me broaden my understanding and better use this nutrition concept. That's why I am sending a copy of "101" to the friend who gave me my copy of "40-30-30 Fat Burning Nurtition".

Worth Buying

This book answers and clarifys many issues about "The Formula". It is a good companion to those following this diet or the Zone. Thanks to the authors for simplifying the Zone and making the 40-30-30 nutrition much easier to follow. The recipies are great. The Formula is the best and healthiest diet I have ever been on. My blood sugar has become manageable (I am diabetic) and under control and I have gone off of insulin. I highly recommend both Formula books. If there were more questions and answers and some better clarity on maintenance I would have rated the book 5 stars.
