A new edition of the bestselling core textbook, Care in Practice for Higher!

The authors of the two-million-copyselling GLUCOSE REVOLUTION series bring us this indispensable guide to how a low GI diet can help control PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). PCOS is a difficult syndrome for doctors to diagnose, but for the one in five UK women who suffer from it its symptoms can be debilitating and depressing; they include weight gain, difficulty conceiving, mood swings, excessive hairiness, acne, low energy and irregular periods. Low GI foods address insulin resistance - the underlying cause of PCOS - as well as being a scientifically proven way to lose weight safely and keep it off. In this easy-to-understand guide, the authors explain what PCOS is and how to recognise and get it diagnosed, guide you through low GI eating principles, and provide the tools to help you create and stick to a healthy lifestyle and a low GI diet. This is the definitive, scientifically sound guide for anyone who needs to know more about living a healthy life with PCOS.

The authors of the 'Glucose Revolution' series present an overview of the glycaemic index and the positive impact it can have on your health. There is a guide to choosing low GI foods - which produce minimal fluctuation in blood sugar levels. They cover weight loss and how, on a low GI diet, it becomes healthy and sustainable.

Forget Atkins. Low-GI eating has now become established as the biggest and healthiest new diet trend. From the original team who brought us THE NEW GLUCOSE REVOLUTION, here is a simple twelve-week diet action plan which shows you exactly how to switch to a low GI lifestyle. The science behind this series has turned around the way people view dieting and carbohydrates. This book presents the principles of low-GI eating in an easy-to-understand diet. There are delicious recipes and meal plans to help you choose the best foods, plus exercise suggestions and regular progress checks to inspire and reward. The six months ahead are often the make-or-break months for weight loss, so the authors look in detail at this time and provide encouraging targets and case studies. Simple and lasting, this is the perfect diet book for those wishing to adopt - and stick to - the low-GI lifestyle.

Science has proven that low GI, slowly digested carbohydrates, are key to healthy and sustained weight loss. THE LOW GI COOKBOOK brings you over 70 tempting recipes based on these established principles. The book covers everything from sustaining breakfasts and brunches, substantial but healthy dinner dishes, to quick salads and sweet treats, and even includes recipes from celebrity chefs. Packed with beautiful photographs, handy tips, and with a complete breakdown of fat, protein and carb content, calorie values and GI values for every recipe, THE LOW GI COOKBOOK is your blueprint for healthy low GI eating for life.
