Description
All you need to know about the glycaemic index for better health and weight loss. Included are easy-to-read tables: an A to Z food listing, a comprehensive listing by food categories, and an at-a-glance table sorted according to low, intermediate and high GI values. Each entry in every table also gives serving size, net carbohydrate per serving, and the glycaemic load, which is clearly explained. An essential addition to the hugely popular and bestselling Glucose Revolution series, this invaluable book is a one-stop GI reference.
