Book Reviews of The 30-Day Low-Carb Diet SolutionBook Review: The Nuts and Bolts of How to Eat and What to Eat Low Carb Summary: 5 Stars
If you don't need or want the science behind "Protein Power" or low carb eating, if you want to eat Low Carb healthy, then this is THE book to get. It's become my bible for low carbing as a way of life.
Three small questionnaires show whether low carbing is the way to go for you. A simple chart based on height and weight shows the minimum protein requirements per meal for women and men. The protein serving lists correlate with the protein charts to show what to eat and how much for small, medium, large, extra large, and extra-extra large protein servings. There are three Carbohydrate serving lists: Small servings for the corrective phase of the diet (weight loss or health restoring), Medium servings for transitioning for increasing the amount of carbs when approaching goal weight or health target values, and Large servings for the maintenance phase. What's the point of reducing weight or gaining health if you can't maintain it?
Carbohydrate servings include vegetables; fruits; and bread, cereals and grains. Yet another list shows the carb contents and quantities of combination foods (dairy, nuts and soy). There's several lists of what to eat of "good" fats. There's a generic easy meal plan, 30-days of meals as examples, how to do exchanges within the carb servings, and a section of recipes including egg dishes and breakfast foods; soups and salads; meat, fish and fowl dishes; vegetable dishes; vegetarian dishes; desserts and preserves; and condiments.
Not only have I lost weight from 134 (March 2005) down to 113 (June, 2005) and maintaining (I'm 4'11), I've gained health. My blood values are all within normal ranges. I have more energy, my moods have leveled out, my clothes fit beautifully and look good, I don't have any more sugar cravings or the feeling that there's not enough food on the planet to satisfy me, and I can easily adapt this way of eating to restaurants, social events, and vacationing. In fact, I lost a pound while out of town in Memphis, TN over the long Memorial Day weekend, 2005. By the way, there's a wonderful list of what to eat when dining out at many kinds of restaurants in the book "Protein Power," pages 126-130.
I have several of my patients in my acupuncture clinic following this way of eating through this book. Both are early stage adult-onset diabetics, both have dropped nearly 40 pounds in 4 to 5 months, both had gastric reflux which lessened and one with sleep apnea greatly improved. Blood sugar values for both have dropped. One patient was able to forego taking any medication for her diabetes, the other had her doseage reduced. Both of their general practitioner doctors are highly pleased.
This book is well worth your time and money. You've everything to gain (health and life).
