Product Description

First published in 2005 in B format as The Holford Low-GL Diet, this book quickly established itself as one of Patrick Holford's core nutrition titles. Patrick is at the forefront of research into fast, safe and lasting weight loss, pinpointing that the secret of successful weight loss is to balance your blood sugar. By eating foods with a low glycemic load (GL), you can balance your blood sugar and not only lose weight quickly but keep it off, feel full of energy and enjoy greatly improved health. In the four years since first publication, thousands of people have followed Patrick's low-GL system with great success, and numerous scientific trials have validated the initial research. As well as encouraging weight loss, it has been proven that a low-GL diet can slow down the ageing process, improve mood and memory, lower cholesterol without drugs, prevent and reverse diabetes and heart disease, and cut cancer risk. This expanded and updated edition - THE LOW-GL DIET BIBLE - is packed with new information on why low GL beats low-fat, low-calorie and high-protein diets every time, and why it is number one for weight loss and good health.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just a diet - a whole new way of life, 2 April 2005

By A Customer

This review is from: The Holford Low GL Diet: Lose Weight and Feel Great in 30 Days (Paperback)

This is the ultimate diet book that actually explains, scientifically why it works and why other diets don't work. It is not just for losing weight, it is about changing your life, your health and your outlook. The claims in the book seem quite amazing but I can report that they are all true - I started the diet post Christmas/New Year feeling fat and fed-up - I lost 10lbs in 5 weeks, never felt hungry, I slept better, had more energy, my skin improved dramatically, I haven't put the weight back on and I still feel amazing. I would recommend this to anyone as it is easy to follow, the recipes are delicious and easy to make and of course, it works!

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy Peasy and it works, 1 Mar 2006

By A Customer

This review is from: The Holford Low GL Diet: Lose Weight and Feel Great in 30 Days (Paperback)

I bought this book in desperation for my partner after we left left slimming world as she had put on weight ! Mood swings stopped almost overnight , weight loss slow and steady(5lb in 3 weeks), more energy . The recipes are absolutely delicious . The only complaint I have is the book refers you to his web site to access updated GL lists - which you have to pay for . However we bought two other GL diet books at the same time - this is the "bible" we keep returning to again and again for recipes.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best ever diet book!, 30 Jan 2005

By A Customer

This review is from: The Holford Low GL Diet: Lose Weight and Feel Great in 30 Days (Paperback)

If you only ever buy one book on healthy eating, then buy this book. All the information you will ever need about food, diets, healthy eating etc is within the covers of this brilliant book. If you get the chance to hear Patrick Holford speak at one of his seminars or workshops you will be totally inspired. Buy this book and be healthy and be slimmer. You will be introduced to the concept of Glycemic Load and how to control your blood sugar level and how that affects your appetite, your weight and your life. It's such a simple idea to understand and is the most advanced scientific thinking there is on appetite and weight control. Yes, this is healthy eating which has been proved by scientists to work!! It's not a faddy diet, that may or not may work. It really does work.
