The Low Down On Low Carb - Rated This book covers a lot of ground that other books have already covered, and makes a persuasive case for low carb dieting. But there are two areas where it sheds new insight that isn't available elsewhere, as far as I know. Lutz himself has been treating a number of ailments with low carb diets for forty years or so, and has a vast reservoir of experience and data, much of which is shared here. Furthermore, the book is candid about the fact that low carb dieting is not for everyone. Those over 45 and/or female may not benefit so much from the diet. The arguments for low carb dieting are well made and realistically put. It's the best book on low carb I've read. A useful introduction for the neophyte. - Rated To anyone approaching this subject for the first occasion then undoubtedly this book will prove to be a useful primer, but, to those who have an inkling of the subject they may find, as I did, that it is disappointingly superficial. The strength of the argument supporting the high fat/protein diet is mostly anecdotal and not particularly convincing. An eating plan to keep you fit for life! - Rated This is a high level analysis of the health benefits of low carbohydrate eating. It is not primarily a diet plan to lose weight, but an explanation of all the benefits of sticking to a maximum of 72 grams of carbohydrate a day. Though Drs Allan and Lutz have written for the non specialist reader, the book is complicated to follow in all its detail. However, those who stick at it may well find it persuasive, as I did, in the arguments and research to which it appeals. Low Carbohydrate appears to have remarkable health benefits for avoiding or improving Diabetes, Heart Disease, Gastro Intestinal Disorders and even Cancer. There is an easy to follow everyday plan for units of 12 grams of carbohydrate which the authors term "Bread Units". Six of these a day and you have your carbohydrate maximum. There is a chart as an appendix which is a whole lot easier than the average carb counter booklet. This is an ideal book for those completing a low carb diet who want to understand its medical benefits and carry on cutting the sugars for life. A handy book also to give your doctor, should your physician have any doubts about the science involved!
