Book Description
Everything you need to know to use the Net Carb, the glycemic index and the glycemic load, whether you are trying to lose weight, prevent weight gain or manage a chronic disease like diabetes. Fad diets usually promise rapid weight loss or other health advantages, such as longer life. They are often promoted as requiring little effort and producing a "quick fix." However, eating according to the glycemic index and glycemic load (to avoid blood sugar spikes) is a consistent, scientifically proven way to manage your health or lose weight through your eating habits. This go-to reference has everything you need to know to use the glycemic index and glycemic load, whether you are trying to lose weight or manage a chronic disease like diabetes. The GI and GL tables--comprehensive lists of foods with their glycemic index and glycemic load values--are the key to unlocking the health benefits of a low GI / low GL diet. Carbohydrates Revolution also offers nutritional data for more than 7,500 popular foods; List of 1,000 commonly foods for the keto diet, Atkins diet, and low-carb diets; guidelines for choosing healthy fats, fatty acids and proteins; 60+ delicious low-carb recipes.
