Customer Reviews

Not worth 5 bucks

It's good, but it only gives the rating for 100 foods. I did like the book, but not worth the price.

Easy, handy & helpful

I have bought books on the glycemic index. This book is a handy, quick guide to make it simple. Eating a diet geared toward low glycemic foods is easy to do. It's just changing a few choices. I got interested in the low glycemic index to help my husband with diabetes, and I lost 5 pounds. It's a healthier way of eating. Very refined foods have a high glycemic index. It also isn't generally good for you. Try that stoneground whole wheat bread. I'd also recommend "The Glucose Revolution: The Authoritative Guide to The Glycemic Index."

Best of the GI Books

I have been researching the Glycemic Index concept for several months. The data is fascinating, but often conflicting. This small resource provides powerful guidelines for adhering to a low GI diet. Unlike other resources, this book addresses portion size and eating low and high GI foods to produce a moderate GI meal. This book is a must for anyone interested in low GI eating.
