Book description
The glycaemic index (GI) is one of the hottest topics in weight loss
today. Like Atkins, it's based on carbohydrates but unlike Atkins it's
based on the quality of the carbs and allows much more flexibility for
the dieter.
This book uses GI in a groundbreaking fashion: simply by adding up
the GiP value of each food and keeping to an allocated number of GiPs
a day, it's possible to lose weight quickly, effortlessly, enjoyably -
and permanently. Unlike other diet books, this is not about avoiding
foods - it's about eating what you want within healthy boundaries.
Importantly, it's about balancing your meal - by eating certain foods
together, you can ensure you get a healthy, delicious and low-GI meal
- and lose those kilos.
