Few people in the world today know more about diet than Patrick Holford, founder of the Institute of Optimum Nutrition, and few diets, we would say, are as sensible and effective as The Holford Low-GL Diet, a distillation of Patrick’s many years of food research. Not another fad, but a nutritionally sound way of eating you can easily follow for the rest of your life, The Holford Low-GL Diet will enable you to enjoy delicious meals, eliminate hunger pangs and food cravings, have more energy than ever before, and reprogramme your body to burn your fat away. At the heart of The Holford Low-GL Diet is one simple principle: if you lose blood sugar control, you gain weight, and feel hungry and tired. If you gain blood sugar control, you lose weight, feel happy and full of energy. The bottom line is that, when you balance your blood sugar, your body will return to its ideal weight.
