‘Forget GI – the latest trend is its updated sister, GL. Quick, easy and a little bit sinful … The diet that’s healthy and works!’ Elle
‘A brilliant, no-panic party-dress diet.’ Zest
‘Say goodbye GI and hello GL – the new, improved diet for savvy slimmers.’ Times
‘Simpler than GI and makes better sense.’ Evening Standard
Product Description
Dieting is so much easier thanks to Nigel Denby's fantastically simple GL diet. There's no calorie or point counting, no hunger, no guilt and no faddy food rules. Even better, you can drop a size in 10 days – and keep it off. All you need to do is stick to a few simple eating guidelines and enjoy his delicious recipes and flexible meal plans.
GL, or Glycaemic Load, gets better results than GI (Glycaemic Index) because it helps you manage the quality AND the quantity of the food you eat. For example, on a GI diet chocolate is off the menu because a single bar of chocolate and a truckload of chocolate have the same bad rating. It's a different story on GL: you can cheat a little and still enjoy your chocolate fix. This diet is so easy and so indulgent that you'll hardly notice you are on it until your unwanted pounds disappear.
• Simple eating guidelines – no rigid rules
• Safe, permanent weight loss
• 10-day flexible planner – drop a size and get on track
• Mouth-watering choice of 10-minute recipes

This is the 4th book from this team (I don't think I've missed any!) and it is a great summary of the GL in one easy read. Some people make it so darn complicated - but these guys KISS! Simple and easy, and I for one have found it a real life changer.
Losing weight has never been easy, I've been a 'bad dieter' for many years, jumping on every passing bandwagon to only fleeting success and subsequent regain. However since finding The GL Diet, the first one these guys wrote, that completely changed, and I am nearly at my target weight. My mood is vastly improved, I love exercise, my energy levels are through the roof and food is great! If you are new to the GL I would say get this book and the cookbook, perfect partners. I am also a member of the dietfreedom.co.uk online club which works very well for me as a support to all I have learned in the books.
But back to this book - it's great, simple, easy and all the recipes can be cooked or thrown together in pretty much 10 minutes or less - that's my kind of book y'all! none of us have much time in the day, so big thanks for that. If you want complicated diet-babble that takes four reads to digest and has you weighing and counting everything, then go elsewhere!! If you want simple easy guidance, written in a friendly style, a quick read, easy reference, based on that proven science, and a lifestyle that's really easy to adapt to - then get this book!!

I have tried every diet there is - could have a car boot sale with my collection of diet books - not that any of them have worked (!) for me at least. But I am amazed to say I have lost 6 pounds in the first week of using the plans in this book and I feel very satisfied - that word doesn't normally go alongside the word diet! I am eating plenty but the weird thing is that I 'feel' so much more centred and balanced and did even after a couple of days. This must be because I have lowered the glycemic load of my diet right down (think it was quite high before). Any way I am now going to buy the GL Diet Cookbook by the same authors as am hugely impressed with not only the sense it makes to me but also the non-patronising language. It is very focused on eating natural foods also which I like as I feel that I am not only losing weight and feeling better but improving my health at the same time. Off to take my old diet book collection to the charity shop down the road!

This book is an excellent and easy-to-use guide when wishing to avoid the diet and diet-related health pitfalls of a busy urban lifestyle. Being able to combine a feeling of doing my body 'good' while enjoying my food has been a great bonus. Equally importantly, it is easy to grasp and being more of a life-style approach (as opposed to a weight-loss diet program) does not appear boringly regimental or 'lecturing'. The GL approach has allowed me to secure more energy - both mental and physical - and both crucial for me during long hours of work in the City - this guide is a valuable companion when negotiating a usually (too!) hectic schedule.

Extremely disappointing after the GI diet books!
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the science behind GL makes a lot more sense than that behind GI, but this book was thoroughly disappointing. Read more
