Secrets of Good Carb / Low Carb Living Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have most of Sandra Woodruff's books and I haven't found a bad recipe yet. This book is no exception. The California Club Wraps are to die for. They were so good that I made them several days in a row. I also tried the Chipotle Black Bean Chili, which was excellent. My husband is a picky eater and generally hates diet food, but he loves everything I've made from Sandra Woodruff cookbooks. I frequently serve her recipes to company and no one can guess they're low-fat and healthy. This particular book also has lots of common-sense advice on doing a low-carb diet and offers two versions, one for a quick start and another for a diet with more carbs. Both give two weeks of menus.

From the top-selling author of The Good Carb Cookbook comes a comprehensive and motivating guide to the good-carb lifestyle. Lately, low-carb diets have been all the rage, but until recently little scientific research has been available regarding their effectiveness and potential health consequences. Now, studies are proving that low-carb diets do work and, contrary to popular belief, they don't pose health risks-if they are done right. But with so many diets to choose from, it is hard for many people to find a program that is realistic for their lifestyle and to which they can adhere. Nationally recognized nutritionist Sandra Woodruff demystifies the process and explains how anyone can tailor a low-carb plan to their individual needs to achieve long-term weight loss. She provides hundreds of delicious recipes, innovative menu plans, instructive cooking tips, and helpful advice for eating out. The healthy eating plan in Secrets of Good-Carb/Low-Carb Living includes lean proteins, healthy fats, and good carbs to not only lose weight but also to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels and help correct metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance. Now anyone can get better results from their low-carb diet or formulate a new eating plan specifically for their needs. With Sandra Woodruff, low-carb living never tasted so good!

Transitions Lifestyle System Easy-to-Use Glycemic Index Food Guide (Transitions Lifestyle Systems) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While this book did have many more listings than anything else I've found, it is very difficult to find what you are looking for. One simple alphabetical listing would have been much more helpful than the catagories and sub-catagories it has. Also note that this is a British publication, so many names are not familiar to Americans (an aubergine is an eggplant; a pulse is a pea, bean or lentil...)

The book first answers commonly asked questions, ensuring that you understand the GI and know how to use it.

Food For Life Ezekiel 4:9 Organic Sprouted Grain Pasta, Spaghetti, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I'm a huge fan of Ezekiel 4:9 cereal, which is absolutely delicious (especially hot) as well as wholesome. Ezekiel 4:9 bread (which is sold frozen) is also pretty good. But their spaghetti? Not so much.
First off, no matter how much you boil it, it has a rough texture that takes away the great aesthetic virtue of spaghetti: that delicate, wrap-around-your-fork silkiness. And then there's the taste. It's difficult to describe (one favorable reviewer compares it to a bran muffin); in any case, it's a distinctive flavor that, in my opinion, does not play well with pasta sauce. And if spaghetti won't go with sauce, then what's the point?
