More About This Book

Overview

Conquer insulin resistance. Reduce cravings. Eat your favorite foods. And lose weight!

If you have tried every diet and are still struggling with your weight, the real culprit may be insulin resistance. When you have more glucose than your body needs, your body responds by producing more insulin to stabilize your blood sugar level and store the excess glucose as fat. In The Insulin-Resistance Diet, Cheryle R. Hart and Mary Kay Grossman show you how to control insulin resistance and lose weight without sacrificing all of your favorite foods.

Overcome insulin resistance and lose weight with:

  • The exclusive Link-and-Balance Eating Method, which balances carbs with the right amount of protein at the right time for maximum weight loss
  • Self-tests to determine your insulin resistance and check your progress with linking and balancing
  • Real-world strategies for eating at home and out on the town
  • Easy-to-make, tasty recipes and livable meal plans

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
The Insulin-Resistance Diet: How to Turn Off Your Body's Fat-Making Machine recommends a well-researched health program based on the relationship between insulin and fat. While low-fat foods are a part of the plan, Cheryle R. Hart and Mary Kay Grossman (doctors at the Women's Workshop, a medical weight clinic) arm readers with comprehensible information about smart combinations of foods that allow for genuinely tasty treats. The book will be helpful for people who want a regimen as well as for those who just want to make informed eating choices. ( Mar.) Copyright 2001 Cahners Business Information.

    Very informative but.....

    I was just diagnosed with insulin resistance and found this book to be very informative. However, as far as the diet that the author in the intro claims that its not a diet and that you dont have to measure a thing in is contradicting. They offer up a helpful trick but there is measuring involvded and lots of planning as well.

    Hypoglycemia NO MORE!

    This book told me how to stop the hypoglycemia roller coaster! I have always been a healthy eater but could not seem to avoid hypoglycemia symptoms at times. I hate to feel ill! This book gives you the information you need to avoid feeling ill due to sugar problems. I would highly recommend this book to anyone looking for relief in the always hungry, sugar-craving, sugar-crashing department.

    Great resource

    I was diagnosed with Insulin-resistance, and use the balancing technique from this book to decide what to eat....While I am on a low dose of metformin, and following this diet plan, I have....for the first time in a LONG time....had dieting success. I was just about ready to give up because nothing else worked. This is a VERY manageable plan, and does deprive the dieter of anything....Wonderful!!!!!!

    Great insight!

    I found this book to be very helpful. I have PCOS and after applying the methods in the book, I am able to control the worst symptoms. I no longer have headaches and haven't really struggled with sugar lows. I don't always go by the rules but because I follow them most of the time, I am able to avoid a lot of problems. It was insightful and I would recommend it to anyone who has hard to get rid of belly fat, and other symptoms that come with sugar lows.

    Excellent Information

    I was impressed with this book because it also gave you the answer to why certain things work or don't work. A lot of us who have a weight problem do have a problem with insulin resistance. The information in this book is the basis of other diets such as the Mediterranean Diet and the Sonoma Diet. It makes a lot of sense and is very helpful. It is written clearly. I had no problem reading this book. I highly recommend it.

    This book has all the answers

    Since my diagnosis of insulin resistance I have been very discouraged about how hard it was going to be to manage my disease. Then my daughter recommended this book. It has easy-to-understand instructions, GREAT recipes, and wonderful advice. It has become my guide to learning my new lifestyle.
