Description
The Glucose Revolution: The Authoritative Guide to the Glycemic Index is a comprehensive resource co-authored by Thomas M.S. Wolever, PhD, along with Jennie Brand-Miller, Kaye Foster-Powell, and Stephen Colagiuri. This groundbreaking book introduces the glycemic index (GI), a scientifically backed tool that ranks carbohydrates based on their impact on blood glucose levels. It explains how low-GI foods—those that produce a gradual rise in blood sugar—can aid in weight management, enhance energy levels, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease.
The book is divided into two main sections:
-
Part One: Provides a clear explanation of the science behind the glycemic index and its role in a healthy, balanced diet.
-
Part Two: Offers practical guidance tailored to various needs, including weight loss, athletic performance, and diabetes management. It includes 50 easy-to-prepare recipes, each with GI rankings and nutritional information
Endorsed by leading health experts, The Glucose Revolution translates decades of nutritional research into accessible advice, making it an essential read for anyone interested in improving their health through informed dietary choices.
