The Glucose Revolution has shown us that different carbohydrate foods have different effects on blood sugar levels. Foods that break down slowly, releasing glucose gradually into the bloodstream, have a low GI factor. The glycaemic index was developed to rank foods according to the effect they have on our blood sugar levels. This book lists all the foods that are best for your health and how to make your meals work for you. Advantages include: blood sugar control; weight loss; reducing the risk of heart disease; and energy charging your body with carbohydrate. Over 100 foods are listed, each with GI, fat, carbohydrate and fibre content.
