Book Reviews of The Insulin-Resistance Diet--Revised and Updated: How to Turn Off Your Body's Fat-Making Machine
Book Review: Provides a simple method for coping with insulin resistance
Summary: 3 Stars
Having read a number of diet books this follows much of the same pattern. It has lots of case studies and background into insulin resistance and how it affects sufferers - but the book could easily have been half as long. It's also more of a lifestyle diet than a prescriptive plan to follow. The 'link and balance' method (basically, every time you eat, make sure that the protein:carbohydrate weight ratio is at least 1:2) that it prescribes is very easy to follow (particularly if you're in the habit of checking food labels anyway) and it has some stuff about 'real world strategies' which are useful. It is somewhat confusing in that it switches between ounces and grams, and lots of the references are American (recipies use cups and I'm not sure if lots of the ingredients suggested such as non-fat cheese are available in the UK). I've only been following it for 2 weeks but it's easy to do and I've lost a couple of pounds already.
