Carb Restriction for Metabolic Health Ingrid Berry

In her book, "Carb Restriction for Metabolic Health", Ingrid Berry walks the fine line between providing sufficient theory about nutrition and its relevance to Western diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, arthritis, gout, cancers, dementia and obesity all rooted in the underlying principle of insulin sensitivity or resistance. The book explores the history of nutrition guidelines, the disastrous effects on the global population, and then analyses various dietary plans based on their carbohydrate content, ranging from low to medium to high. There is a comprehensive list of foods categorised by their macronutrients, along with plenty of low carb, healthy fat recipes to match. Further, there is a compendium of 'who's who' in the low carb community to enable the reader to explore their own research.
