Much simpler to use 17 Sep 2007
Format:Paperback
I'm having great success with this book. I really liked the principles of the original Holford Low-GL Diet book and cookbook but somehow I couldn't quite make it work. This book is just so much more user-friendly. Weight reduction has been a little slower than I'd hoped but steady and I feel so good eating this food that I have plenty of energy to exercise daily, a far cry from low-calorie approaches. The learning about health and nutrition is invaluable. Highly recommended.

As a firm Holford believer I am always keen to get my hands on a new recipe book of his. This book reprises the original Holford Diet in a much more user friendly way. I would recommend it to anyone new to the diet as it has lots of tips on how to create your own meals, salads, sandwiches etc sticking to his low GL format. It has a few new recipes although if this is what you're after you are probably better off buying the Holford Cookbook.

I needed a little inspiration and have started the menu plans suggested in the book. Wish me luck!!!

This is an excellent book. Full of very sensible nutritional advice and makes the eating plan very easy to follow. So much so, that it becomes a way of life - a very healthy way of life.

The low gl diet was developed by a university in Australia, so why does this author make out as if he has invented it. Got a bit of a problem with his ego I think. Read more

easy diet without starving
Lays out basic rules for GI diet, what would be really good is a list of foods by GI points (as all foods have a GI amount. I lost weight easily & wasn't hungry.

Very disappointing
The only way to successfully use this book is to buy the other 2 on the GL diet to go with it. A waste of money for me but for the author a way to sell more books.
