Book Reviews of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution, Revised Edition
Book Review: book lover
Summary: 5 Stars
Well I have to admit this. Is I am very sick with hypoglycemia. I don't have diabetes. So I have a very high intolerance to sugar. And at times I don't have alot of strength.Any kind of sugar, juice, fruit, etc...
But I was impressed by this book. To me it so much better than the diabetic diet I was on. Now I stay away from all forms of sugar. But Dr. Atkins gave me some good advice about sugar that I never new. But I have been reading the book for a month. I did lose six pounds. For me thats incredible. And I don't have the blood sugar swings of high and dropping to low. I can't follow the his diet plan perfect but at times I see a improvement of more strength. To me that is wonderful improvement. For how sick I have been. Like staying in bed because I am to weak. I love the low carbs because it does keep my blood sugar balance. And helps me not to get diabetes.
I know it is expensive to by chicken now a days. And vegetables. But so far I do feel good. Thats a plus. Years ago, I would just laugh at the Atkins Diet. But now I got desperate and needed help. I love it!
Summary of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution, Revised Edition
This new addition contains the basic diet and is enhanced by new explanations of the underlying theories. There are seven new chapters.Designed to catapult your body into a state of fat meltdown, Dr. Atkins's diet has taken America by storm. It targets insulin, the hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. The bodies of most overeaters are continually in a state of hyperinsulinism; their bodies are so adept at releasing insulin to help convert excess carbohydrates to fat that there's always too much of the hormone circulating through the body. This puts the body into a bind; it always wants to store fat. Even when people with hyperinsulinism try to lose weight--especially when they cut fat but increase carbohydrate consumption--their efforts will fail. This is why Dr. Atkins refers to insulin as "the fat-producing hormone."
Dr. Atkins's diet is extremely low in carbohydrates, which helps to regulate insulin production and decrease circulating insulin; less insulin soon results in less fat storage and fewer food cravings. The diet is far from torturous, though--those who've tried it attest that hunger is not a part of this plan. Ninety percent of Dr. Atkins's patients--more than 25,000 of them--have experienced dramatic weight loss. The book includes recipes for such luscious, low-carb dishes as lobster soup, zabaglione, sea bass, and blueberry ice cream, and even includes a carbohydrate gram counter and menus.
