Product Description
Product Description
Eating a low GI diet is now hugely popular and a way of life for many people. The GI (glycaemic index) is a measure of how the foods you eat affect blood sugar levels. Put simply, eating certain foods will maintain a constant blood sugar level over a period of time, while others give a short-term lift that will quickly leave you feeling lacklustre and deflated. By eating foods that have a low GI count your body will maintain an equilibrium and you will never feel hungry or low in energy. You will also lose weight over time and feel healthier. The great thing about the GI diet is that no food is off limits. You simply eat smaller portions of those foods that are high GI and enjoy more low GI foods. Long-term benefits of the GI diet include a healthier heart, less likelihood of developing diabetes or having a stroke and a stronger immune system. This practical book contains 101 recipes that are easy to prepare and good to eat, as well as being healthy. In addition, every recipe has been triple tested by the Good Housekeeping Institute so it is guaranteed to work first time and every time you use it. The introduction explains how the glycaemic index works and how to use it to improve your health and general wellbeing and lose weight. The recipes that follow are divided into six chapters including breakfast, snacks, lunch and supper, with ideas and inspiration for every occasion. By following a few simple rules you can enjoy varied and delicious meals every day and improve your overall health and wellbeing.
