In Everyday Low GI Eating, the authors of the New York Times bestseller The New Glucose Revolution show readers how to choose low-GI carbohydrates—the ones that produce only small fluctuations in our blood glucose levels—so that they feel fuller longer and increase their energy levels, making weight loss achievable and sustainable. Jennie Brand-Miller and Kaye-Foster-Powell, along with Philippa Sandall, offer a simple overview of the GI and why it's such an effective dietary tool; a list of the top 100 low-GI foods divided into easy-to-follow sections such as fruit and veggies, breads and cereals, legumes, nuts, and indulgences; tips on low-GI cooking and shopping; and much more. Complete with a 7-day low-GI meal plan to start readers off on the right foot, Everyday Low GI Eating is a one-stop resource for all those looking for an easy way to make the switch to a low-GI lifestyle.

Rating: - This is not a diet but a way of life - highly recommend!!!!
I found following the glycemic program has enabled me to still enjoy the foods I love and to actually feel very healthy at the same time. It has affected my moods, my cravings, and relationship with food and my emotions. Thank you for this book - I believe the low glycemic program should be under consideration to replace the food pyramid!
