Publisher Comments:

- A New York Times best-seller: The New Glucose Revolution is a New York Times best-seller, has sold 600,000+ copies of our Marlowe editions, and has been published in dozens of countries around the world. The New Glucose Revolution has been praised for its authority, accessibility, and comprehensiveness by dozens of prominent health experts.<BR>- Definitive, first-ever guide to the GI: Dr. Jennie Brand-Miller is the pioneering researcher on the subject and has championed the GI approach to nutrition for more than twenty years. All of the information, advice, and recipes in this book are based on hard scientific research, most of which was conducted by the authors in their world-leading laboratory at the University of Sydney.<BR>- Revised for the first time in four years: Since publication of the last edition, using the glycemic index to choose low-GI foods has become more popular among Americans and more widely recognized than ever before. This third edition is newly revised and updated to include new chapters on PCOS and vegetarian eating, expanded tables for more than 800 foods, new recipes, success stories, and the latest scientific information relating to the GI and its benefits.<BR>- Major food trend: In April 2006, the glycemic index was named one of "America's 10 Hottest Food Trends" by Food Technology (featured on WebMD). Eating low-GI is a trend that's skyrocketing while Atkins and low-carb are on the decline. Food companies are also now creating products featuring low GI choices, as the Wall Street Journal reported earlier this year.

Synopsis:

The New York Times bestseller, by the world's leading authorities on the glycemic index, now completely revised and updated: More useful and relevant than ever, The New Glucose Revolution is the definitive introduction to and an essential source of new information for everyone seeking to establish a way of eating for lifelong health, no matter what your current age, weight, or medical or physical condition. Widely recognized as the most significant dietary finding of the last twenty-five years, the glycemic index (GI)—an easy-to-understand measure of how foods affect blood glucose levels—shows how and why eating low-GI foods has major health benefits for everybody, every day, at every meal. This all-new third edition includes: ? The latest scientific findings on the GI and the myriad benefits of eating low-GI foods ? Instantly readable tables of GI and glycemic load values for more than 500 popular foods and prepared meals, including brand-new GI values for 125 foods ? Dozens of delicious, easy low-GI recipes for everyday meals and snacks ? A brand-new A–Z of the 100 key terms used throughout the book ? Answers to nearly 50 of the most frequently asked questions about the GI

Synopsis:

Dr. Jennie Brand-Miller has championed the GI approach to nutrition for more than 20 years. Now, in this newly revised and updated third edition, she and her colleagues offer their latest research and the newest discoveries further substantiating the connections between nutrition, the glycemic index, blood glucose levels, and optimal health.

The New Glucose Revolution, the very first book on the GI ever published in the United States, is both the definitive introduction to and essential source of new information about all aspects of the glycemic index— an easy-to-understand ranking of foods based on how quickly they raise blood glucose levels. Written by the world's leading GI authorities, it shows how and why eating low-GI foods offers major health benefits for everyone.

Clear and accessible throughout, the third edition also features a new introduction, the top 100 low GI foods, completely updated GI listings for more than 800 foods (including dozens of new foods), an expanded recipe section, real life testimonials from people who have successfully used the glycemic index to improve their health, and new frequently asked questions.
