The New Glucose Revolution Losing Weight

Jennie Brand-Miller

At a time when Australians are more overweight than ever, The New Glucose Revolution Losing Weight shows how low GI foods can help you lose weight and keep it off improving your overall health at the same time.

Obesity is now recognised as a serious and growing health concern in Australia - two in three men and one in two women are now overweight or obese. Even children are affected. This book shows how this major health concern can be easily overcome by following a low GI diet.
Not all foods are created equal. When it comes to losing weight, it is not necessarily a matter of reducing how much you eat. This is where the GI plays a leading role. Low GI foods have two essential advantages for people trying to lose weight: They fill you up and keep you satisfied for longer, and they help you burn more body fat and less muscle.
The New Glucose Revolution Losing Weight emphasises that the best diet is the one that still allows you to eat your favourite foods and suits your lifestyle, because this is the one you re most likely to follow. It shows you how GI foods will help you lose weight and keep it off!
