Product Description
A low GI diet should give you more energy and protect against heart disease an diabetes, as well as assisting weight loss. This book focuses on the revolutionary diet favoured by Hollywood stars, including Jennifer Aniston and J Lo. It clearly explains what the Glycaemic Index is, and how it can help you to lose weight. Foods with a low GI index - which convert to glucose slowly, keeping hunger at bay for longer - are detailed. You can choose from one of four diet plans, which feature a variety of recipes: 14-day GI genius plan; 14-day GI vegetarian plan; GI galvanizer plan; GI for life plan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy GI Diet, 15 Nov 2004
By A Customer
I can't recommend the GI principles highly enough, and this book is a fabulous way to learn about them. The format makes it a joy to read - the font is good, the pages are well set out, the pictures are wonderful. Moreover the information is plentiful but everything is explained very clearly. My only gripe is that the daily diet plans are impossible to keep to if you have to go out to work!

5.0 out of 5 stars Full of excellent advice, 24 Oct 2004
By A Customer
A great and very readable explanation of the low GI principles, which are scientifically sound and far more sensible than many other plans, which often miss out major food groups, which is always very difficult to sustain healthily.
The recipes are tasty and varied and include a good selection of vegetarian options.
The plan takes the form of 2 weeks of daily menus (plus 2 more weeks of vegetarian menus), followed by suggestions for a maintenance plan once you have lost the weight you need to. There is also some advice on how to make up your own daily menus although this could have been a bit more detailed. Lots of good advice on increasing your exercise levels, which is always vital to weight loss.
A great way to start out on re-educating yourself to eat in this way, especially if you like to follow complete daily plans. Buy it!
I would like Ms Foster to produce another book of recipes to continue on these lines.

5.0 out of 5 stars MUST HAVE aid to easy weight loss, 28 Jun 2005
By A Customer
Excellent book. Clear, concise, easy to follow and understand. Explains the science behind why a GI diet works and then follows this with recipes.

The book splits recipes for meat eaters and vegetarians into sections. There are even two weeks worth of recipes for maintaining your desired weight (once you have reached it - of course!!).

Each of the sections includes 2 weeks worth of eating plan, this covers breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. What is even better is that the recipes take about 10 minutes to prepare. My ideal recipe book!!

The whole family can eat, and benefit from, the food prepared, as it is a balanced, sensible diet.

There are ideas of how to exercise too. This is exercise with a difference as it can be done from home and can easily fit into your daily routine.

I would recommend this book to anyone who wishes to loose weight and feel healthy. Thank you to the author for writing it.
