From the New York Times best-selling authors of The New Glucose Revolution and the Glucose Revolution series comes a groundbreaking diet based on the glycemic index. THE LOW GI DIET REVOLUTION (Marlowe, January 24, 2005) synthesizes 20 years of research on carbs and the GI by combining the cutting-edge research being done in Dr. Jennie Brand-Miller’s laboratory at the university of Australia, in Sydney, with leading research around the world. Created out of this pioneering work is the only science-based diet that is proven to help one lose up to 10 percent of their current weight and develop a lifetime of healthy eating habits that can protect one from illness and disease.THE LOW GI DIET REVOLUTION, the # 1 bestselling diet in Australia, does not advocate cutting carbohydrates from one’s diet as the answer to weight loss. Instead, it shows readers how to make smart carbohydrate choices that will ensure permanent weight loss and good health for years to come.
Built around a 12-week action plan, THE LOW GI DIET REVOLUTION guides readers through every step of the simple transition to a low glycemic lifestyle, including the right way to approach the protein/carbohydrate balance, suggestions for exercise, and regular progress checks to inspire and reward the reader. In addition, the authors provide a maintenance plan to get readers through the next six months—often the make-or-break months for weight loss—and offer continuing support through case studies, targets and tips on beating the mental difficulties associated with dieting. With thirty delicious recipes and appetizing meal plans, THE LOW GI DIET REVOLUTION is the only “smart” choice for everyone who wants to be fit and fabulous for life.
