When told by your doctor that you need to eat more healthy, or more clean; do you understand just what it is he's saying? Lots of experts tell us these things,but what they don't tell us is how certain foods can affect not only our diet but our appetites. Thousands of experts, including my favorite show "The Biggest Loser," want us to lose weight, exercise, and live a more healthy lifestyle; yet the only way we can do that is to join their club at $$$ per month, purchase their expensive equipment, books, etc... This book breaks it all down into an easy to follow guide, and explains to you how different foods (fruits & vegetables, etc...) effects your body and how your body digest them so that your satisfied all day, without overeating. Trust me its a wonderful book to read & a great diet too (I started losing weight & feeling much better the first week). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I only have great things to say about this book *by on Reviewed in the United States January 27, 2017* I only have great things to say about this book. Coming from a background of yo-yo dieting trying everything from Weightwatchers to Atkins I was tired. Tired of trying, but then I stumbled upon this book. This is NOT a diet this is a lifestyle of great health. This easy to follow plan does not take you to far to the right or left but it keeps you centered in the middle to be as healthy as possible and lose weight too. This plan is amazing from day one I could not put the book down, I read it all in one day and started the plan immediately. I have gotten healthy and lost 40pounds so far from following this lifestyle. I would also like to mention that I am not diabetic and this worked for me. The plan just makes since. No more yo-yo dieting the plan works for everyday life and for every situation. The book is well laid out. I brought several books to give them to friends and family. I will never diet again but I will stick to this lifestyle for life!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It just makes sense *by on Reviewed in the United States May 3, 2006* I've been somewhat frustrated as of these past couple years as I've been having trouble trying to trim down in the hip/waist area. Reason being that I exercise 5x/week (at least 30 minutes of cardio + weights) and have been pretty good about my what I eat. I'm not an overweight person, but do have problems in the areas as written above.So I gave this diet a shot and got results much sooner that I had thought (i.e. w/in the week). My waist is much flatter and pants are starting to fit like they used to. Almost too good in that I'm starting to lose weight in areas that I don't want (i.e. legs).In addition to cutting the fat, this diet emphasizes the problem w/ simple sugars and processed, refined foods/grains. These are easy to digest and are dumped into the bloodstream quickly. As a consequence, the body is saturated w/ more sugar than it needs and will place it into storage for later use (i.e. fat cells). Insulin is pretty good about transporting this sugar spike and you will be left hungry shortly --> leading to snacking, overeating.This diet is a timed-release diet, if you will. D/t the fiber content of the green light foods, glucose is released at a gradual rate into the bloodstream. This eliminates any cravings for snacks as there's a constant supply of energy/food content in the body for a longer period of time as opposed to simple sugars.This diet is almost perfect. The pro's: it's works! It's overall a better way to take care of yourself. It cuts down on cholesterol and likely prevents type II diabetes. Most important, it's a complete diet: I really like how this diet doesn't cut out on nutrients that the body has to have (i.e. Atkins diet).The cons: GI diet food can be hard to find when it comes to eating/going out. Following this diet can be hard at times d/t decreased availability. Ex: being of Asian descent, brown rice or whole wheat just doesn't happen when we have family gatherings or eat out. Only options are piling on the extra vegetables if those are even available.-Not necessarily a con, but a caution. People on this diet will have to keep their water up. This is important in that less water and lots of fiber can cause constipation or at worst obstuction. Water is important to keep fiber rich foods moving along the GI tract.- Also, it doesn't take too much to make the weight come back. A weekend binge can redeposit the fat almost instantaneously.But overall, I'm very happy about my results and oh yes, the book itself. Thorough enough, very easy to follow. I highly recommend Mr. Gallop's ideas/way of life! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/5008582-the-g-i-glycemic-index-diet](https://www.desertcart.be/products/5008582-the-g-i-glycemic-index-diet) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-08-21*
