Despite the current emphasis on 'healthy eating' obesity has been
increasing at an alarming rate, especially in children, and chronic
diseases such as diabetes and heart disease are reaching epidemic
levels. Barry Groves tells us that this is because 'healthy eating' is
anything but that; it is far too high in carbohydrates, especially
refined carbs, and far too low in fats. Unlike carbohydrates, or
proteins, fats do not compromise our insulin levels. They keep our
metabolism functioning at a healthily high level and they stop us
getting hungry too quickly. And they do not raise our cholesterol
levels. Based on years of research, and personal experience, this book
tells us how to change our diets and what the benefits of doing so will
be. Practical and clearly explained, you cannot read this book without
realising it is time to change.
