Book Description
Widely recognized as the most significant
dietary finding of the last twenty-five years, the glycemic index (GI) is
revolutionizing the way we eat.
The New Glucose
Revolution is both the definitive introduction to and an essential
source of new information about the GI.
Written by the
world’s leading authorities on the subject, whose findings are supported
by hundreds of studies from Harvard University’s School of Public Health
and other leading research centers, it shows how and why eating low-GI
foods has major health benefits for everybody.
Completely revised and expanded from the first edition, The New
Glucose Revolution includes:
• A clear argument for why our bodies need carbohydrates and the
benefits of low-GI foods
• Brand-new coverage of the glycemic load and its significance and daily
application
• Fifty all-new, delicious, and easy-to-prepare recipes with complete
nutritional information
• Comprehensive, up-to-date tables of glycemic index values for almost
800 individual foods—a nearly threefold increase over the first
edition—and, completely new to this edition, glycemic load
values—material unavailable to readers anywhere else
• Answers to the most frequently asked questions about carbohydrates and
the glycemic index
The New Glucose Revolution is the definitive resource for
everyone seeking to establish a way of eating for lifelong health, no
matter what your current age, weight, or medical or physical condition.
