Rating: Summary: medically sound and interesting to read Review: As someone who has studied Nutrition and Physiology, it was really refreshing to read a "diet" book based on medical knowledge rather than dangerous food fads. It refined my knowledge of the glycemic indexes of various foods and has great ideas for snacking, cooking, and eating out. Try the apple-oat muffins, they're easy to bake and yummy to munch!
Rating: Summary: One of the best nutrition books out there. Review: Dr. Podell's book paved the way for me to lose pounds effortlessly that I have always carried. It is true that the G-Index of foods are what makes you fat. Thank you Dr. Podell for finally bringing hope to a person that did not lose weight on 900 calorie diet. Now on your 1200 cal diet I am losing weight and have the energy to even start to work out. Rosemary Bridges
Rating: Summary: Great book Review: For the first time in my life I have lost weight and managed to keep it off using this book. 15 pounds and counting. The best part is that I don't feel hungry or cranky. I have recommended this book to friends and relatives.
Rating: Summary: EXCELLENT BOOK TO MAINTAIN WEIGHT LOSS Review: I bought this book recently. I have learnt a lot about Glycemic Index and how to eat the right foods and which foods fill you up without wanting to eat a lot. Excellent book and everyone should read it. I have suggested this book to all my friends who want to eat healthy foods and keep up their energy.
Rating: Summary: It's changed my life and how I relate to food. Review: I had tried every kind of diet ever published. I lost weight then gained it back. Then as I got older, it was even harder to lose weight no matter how few calories I ate. This book helped to to understand how certain foods make you fat. I've adopted a low-glycemic diet and have lost 8 lbs. in about 6 weeks. It was effortless, and it's a lifestyle and diet I can stay on forever. If you are desperate to lose weight and maintain a healthy, long-term life lifestyle, you must read this book--then put it into practice! It's easy
Rating: Summary: Finally something that is simple and makes sense! Review: I really enjoy reading books on healthy eating and The G-Index Diet is a very good book. If your tired of all the fad diets of no carbs and all protein or all of the others this will help you tremendously. It is the healthiest and most sound diet book I have read to date and I read quite a few just to keep up on the latest find for keeping wieght off. After I finish reading a book about eating recommendations I try to find one similar to it so that I can figure out which points I agree with and which ones I can live with. The Good Calorie Diet is a very good choice to read along with The G-Index Diet but I feel that the G-Index Diet is a better book and much easier to adapt to everyday living and eating.
Rating: Summary: The best diet I have ever tried Review: I think this diet is easy to follow, and it works. My husband lost 17 pounds in one month when we first tried it, I lost seven pounds. The food is great, and everything is spelled out for you, right down to your grocery list. A lot of my friends are trying it now too!
Rating: Summary: Godsend for those who are hypothyroid! Review: I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis (hypothyroidism) two years ago. I have tried all of the low-fat high carb diets and just gained weight. Because of how my body now handles insulin and the glycemic values of foods, I have to follow a diet such as this. The results: I have been on the diet for 6 weeks and have lost 10 lbs. On previous diets there was no weight loss. To all of those who are hypothyroid it's not us, it's how we eat! This is a lifestyle change. It has not been hard either.
Rating: Summary: Great & Easy Diet Plan Review: I've been on the diet for a week and I've lost 6.6 pounds. The recipes are great! Easy to make and taste great. I'm not hungry or craving anything I'm not suppose to eat! I highly recommend this.
