In 'The Glucose Revolution', authors Jennie Brand Miller and Kaye Foster-Powell revolutionised the way we think about food via the glycemic index.
Carbohydrates, they revealed, are not all created equal. Some are absorbed much more slowly than others, and these slowly digested carbohydrates have some startling health benefits - providing sustained energy, aiding weight loss, helping the management of diabetes, and reducing the risk of coronary hearth disease and certain cancers.
This book goes beyond carbohydrates to deliver all today's key dietary messages. It reveals:
- The truth about fats: not all are the baddies we thought them
- The pros and cons of high protein eating; how does it compare to the low GI carbohydrate approach?
- Why Mediterranean and Asian-style diets are not only delicious but wonderfully healthy
The book aims to expand our healthy eating choices, providing the tools to put all the latest knowledge into practice. Its 7-day menu plans have ideas to suit all ages and lifestyles. And its 50 fabulous new recipes offer food that is delicious, diverse, exciting and easy-to-prepare.
'The Glucose Revolution Life Plan' hands us all today's nutritional messages on one easy plate.
