The Glycemic Index Solution for Optimum Health.
New Edition.
Are you a Type 1 or Type 2 diabetic trying to keep your blood glucose levels under better control? The glycemic index (G.I.) - an easy to understand ranking of foods (most notably carbohydrates) based on their immediate effect on blood glucose levels - helps people with diabetes choose the right roods for better blood glucose control.
This popular companion to 'The New Glucose Revolution' contains the most up-to-date information about carbohydrate and explains:
- How the G.I. works
- Why traditionally taboo foods are not necessarily bad
- How to include the right kind of carbohydrate in your diet
- How to prepare low G.I. meals (including recipes and tips)
- How to achieve better diabetes control
With an A-Z listing of food with their G.I., carbohydrate quantity and glycemic load, this book can give people with diabetes a new lease of life.
