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 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.
