The GL Cookbook and Diet Plan: A Glycemic Load Weight-Loss Program with Over 150 Delicious Recipes (Paperback) Review

The GL Cookbook and Diet Plan: A Glycemic Load Weight-Loss Program with Over 150 Delicious Recipes"The GL Cookbook and Diet Plan" show an easy-to-follow plan for health weight loss and reduce the risk of diabetes.This is the third book by Nigel Denby, Tina Michelucci, and Deborah Pyner, the others being "The 7-Day GL Diet" and "The GL Diet."

The Glycemic index is a measure of the effects of carbohydrates on blood glucose levels. Carbohydrates that break down rapidly during digestion releasing glucose rapidly into the bloodstream have a high GI. Carbohydrates that break down slowly releasing glucose gradually into the bloodstream have a low GI. For most people, foods with a low GI have significant health benefits.

GL stands for Glycemic Load, which, according to Nigel Demby, is a simpler and more accurate way of determining the glycemic index for apportion of food.This book provides simple charts, easy to follow advice, and good-sounding recipes to help keep a low GL.It covers the main points of glycemic index and its effects on diabetes and weight control.Also covered is what affects food's GI and how to cook them.
I found the topic, Adding Acidity, to be really interesting.Test show that adding lemon juice or vinegar to a high carb meal will lower the glycemic response by 30%.Also researchers from Sweden found a direct link between increased vinegar intake and satiety after eating.

Simple recipes like Bacon Frittata for one made with 2 eggs and 2 slices of bacon (15 minutes total time) and a Spinach and Egg soufflé with eggs, spinach, cheddar and parmesan cheese (45 minutes total time) make it easy to add new low GL dishes to the menu.

This is an informative, easy-to-read, and helpful book for those who have a glycemic problem and those looking to incorporate some healthy tips in their daily eating habits.
