I haven't finished the book, but it arrived in a timely manner and it is making sense of the food and relationships to inflammation and weight.

Anyone who would like to loose the weight the proper way and keep it off, read this book, its excellent. Everything is explained in laymen terms and easy to follow. Recipes are tasteful, easy to follow, and take no time to fix. Would recommend this for everyone including the diabetics.

There are many books out there about glycemic index. This is a very helpful and informative one. It's an easy read which includes about everything one would need to know about this topic. I highly recommend.

a great book!!!!!

My doctor said I had high insulin the last check-up I had. I have went on many diets over the years but not a specific program like this--usually just counting calories but eating what I wanted to. I have already lost five pounds and the main thing is that I really feel so much better. My feet aren't as swollen or anything. Also, this book makes the diet simple and easy to follow. If I can do this, anyone can. Get the book and get started.

Wish the food list was longer.....

The book is full of information, almost too much to absorb and you can get most of the info on the internet.

I wanted a book with specific plans laid out and then a list of food you can substitute for the ones you don't like in the pre-arranged plans. This does not have anything like that.

There is a sample menu but it's very brief and the glycemic load is greater than their own guidelines for eating "low glycemic".

Not sure if I'm keeping this one.....
