The Glucose Revolution: Losing Weight (Pocket Guide) Book

Over 50 per cent of people in the UK are overweight and/or obese. This is largely due to the fact that too many people like their food to be fast and fatty. Unlike other guides dealing with weight loss, The Pocket Guide to the Glucose Revolution and losing weight doesn't concentrate on calorie reduction, but actually offers advice on how to increase your food intake: "You can eat quantity, just consider the quality". Using the glycaemic index (or G.I. factor - a simple ranking of foods based on their immediate effect on blood sugar level), the book lists foods that fill you up, without fattening, and keep you satisfied for longer. But the authors insist this isn't just another diet book. Instead, The Pocket Guide to the Glucose Revolution and losing weight offers no-nonsense nutritional advice and analysis designed to help you control your appetite by being choosy about what carbohydrates you eat. The message, it seems, is you don't have to starve to lose weight. Or rather, "release" weight. "After all, to lose something, suggests that you hope to find it again someday."--Christopher KellyRead More
