Written by the world's leading authorities on the subject, supported by studies from leading research centers, it shows how and why eating low-GI foods has major health benefits for everybody. The revised edition includes: a clear argument for why our bodies need carbohydrates and the benefits of low-GI foods; the glycemic load and its significance and daily application; fifty recipes with complete nutritional information; tables of glycemic index and glycemic load values for almost 800 individual foods; and answers to the most frequently asked questions about carbohydrates and the glycemic index.--From publisher description.
