As research continues into the impact of carbohydrates on the body, it is becoming clear that they may be responsible for a number of health conditions, from hormonal imbalance and chronic fatigue to diabetes and heart disease. This cookbook opens by looking at how carbohydrates affect the body. Set out as a practical user-friendly guide, the guide describes the chemical changes that occur in the body when you eat carbohydrates and how this impacts on your health. It looks at the foods you should avoid and the foods that your body needs to stay fit and healthy, and gives advice on how to stick to a low-carbohydrate diet and maintain a healthy lifestyle. The recipe section includes 50 delicious, healthy, low-carbohydrate recipes. Try any one of the nutrient-packed dishes to help you obtain optimum health. Prevent hormonal imbalance, boost energy levels, burn fat more efficiently and lose weight with delicious dishes such as Thai Beef Salad, Chicken Breasts with Serrano and Grilled Sea Bass with Fennel.
