A practical guide to your new, healthier diet and lifestyle. Advice on diabetes, heart disease, cholesterol, chronic fatigue, sugar addiction and PCOS. Features 130 low carb recipes. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I was recommended this book a couple of years ago from a friend and have always been grateful. Instead of reading like a diet guide the author explains GI and why certain foods should not be eaten together etc.The recipes are very tasty, however do require plenty of preparation and thought as opposed to a low fat diet. It has helped me maintain a healthy weight and encouraged me to finally cut out extra sugar and coffee!
Easy to read & worked for me in practice

This book is well written, very easy to read and the logic behind it makes sense. It prescribes eating good carbs, avoiding bad carbs, separating protein & carbs in a meal, and waiting a certain period of time before switching from a protein meal to a carb meal & vice versa. Once you get the knack of all that, it's easy to do and I found it removed my sugar swings/low blood sugar episodes altogether. However you do need to stick to the plan religiously to lose weight from it.
great read

Bought this book but thought it would be like most other diet books which you read but never put into practice. However, it is simply written and thr diet, although not really aa "diet" is realistic and easy to follow on a daily basis. This low carb diet does work as well, within a few weeks the results were obvious and my cholestrol had fallen. Definetly recommend this book to anyone wanting to lose weight and reduce cholesterol.
