The Spanish version of the English "The New Glucose Revolution". The glycemic index just may be the most significant advance in nutritional science of the last 25 years. More so than any other nutritional tool, it is transforming what and how we eat. The glycemic index ranks foods according to their immediate effect on blood glucose levels. A growing body of research confirms that the glycemic index is a factor in health concerns from weight gain and fatigue to heart disease and diabetes. Written by the team of experts at the forefront of glycemic index research, this book demonstrates how and why a low-GI diet can melt away unwanted pounds and reduce the risk of serious illness. This doesn't mean eating only low-GI foods or giving up high-GI favorites; as the book explains, combining and balancing your food choices is key. - from Amzon
