Product Description
Product Description
Gem GI is a clear introduction to what a GI diet is and how it works. It explains the difference between the glycemic index of a food and its glycemic load. The GI food counter rates hundreds of foods using a simple traffic-light system: red for foods to avoid, amber for foods to eat occasionally and green for foods to focus on. Contains a clear introduction to GI diets and how they work. Cuts through the jargon associated with technical sounding terms such as glycemic index and loads. The food rater operates as in the Gem Calorie and Carb counters giving the GI rating as well as calories and carbs for hundreds of different foods. Provides tips and advice on how to use GI dieting most effectively and helps you maintain a healthy eating regime. There is also a useful guide to what to choose when eating at your favourite Chinese, Italian, Mexican, etc, restaurants.

Dropped 4 stn with this little bible.

This review is from: Collins Gem - GI: How to succeed using the Glycemic Index diet (Paperback)
This small Collins is the virtual pocket bible for diabetics. Every food (if it goes in your mouth - it is food) is assessed as to the content, suitabiklity or not for control of diabetes and in some cases obesety.
Clear explanations start the book and then it progresses through the gbook with every type of food and drink. Easily carried in bag or pocket, easy reference and an excellent publication for helping those with diabetic or obesity problems. Excellent value for money. highly recommended.
