Raman Prasad

Fair Winds Press, 2008

A worthy addition to my cookbook library
A new recruit to the delights of cooking, my interest in cookbooks is currently at it's peak. What I've wanted are light, simple meals with fresh, clean tastes and this book certainly delivers. I've found several interesting recipes in this book that satisfy my hunger(and my bias towards aesthetically pleasing, well designed books: after all it's well known that one eats with ones eyes first). ...

Nina Frusztajer Marquis, Judith J. Wurtman

Rodale Books, 2006

The Serotinin Power Diet
I found Judith Wurtman's book The Serotinin Power Diet to be the only book that deals with what I consider, really counts: Hunger control. Through their year's of research at MIT they have learned what triggers binging and hunger and teaches you what to eat, before attending social events etc. It teaches you how to control you appetite so you can go into any situation and control yourself and ...

Eating Stella Style: Low-Carb Recipes for Healthy Living44 reviews
George Stella, Christian Stella

Simon & Schuster, 2006

Stella Style
I am not a cook. I don't know how to throw a meal together for a family, since I am single. But this is a great book for people who are tired of eating the same old thing with the Atkins diet. The recipes are easy and with practice can add flair to your cooking. I particularly like the sections that teach you how to make sauces and spice mixtures 		  
  







  
  
Grain-free Gourmet Delicious Recipes for Healthy Living (Grain-free Gourmet)15 reviews
Jodi Bager, Jenny Lass

Whitecap Books, 2005

Best SCD cookbook I've used so far
I have this cookbook as well as Breaking the Vicious Cycle, Lucy's SCD Cookbook, and Eat Well Feel Well. This one is my favorite. I love "The World's Best Meat Sauce", which I make thick as recommended for a sloppy joe spooned over the "Basic Bread" recipe. Fantastic! The apple galette disappeared immediately among a group of non-SCD dieters. I also like the cole slaw, and the cappuccino ice ... 		  
  







  
  
The G.I. Handbook: How the Glycemic Index Works11 reviews
Barbara Ravage

Barron''s Educational Series, 2005

This one really works!
I bought this book a year or two ago along with another GI book and read them both. It was easy to incorporate the plan into my nutritional activities, even though I did so half-heartedly. Within the past six months, people have been asking me if I was on a diet or if I had lost weight. I personally did not notice; the change of seasons and wardrobe switch precluded my observation from looser ...

Jane Brody's Good Food Book: Living the High Carbohydrate Way22 reviews
Jane E. Brody

W. W. Norton & Company, 1985

Great cookbook which has withstood the test of time.
I bought this cookbook back around 1992 and the tattered paperback is the most used cookbook in my kitchen. I live with a vegetarian, so most of what I've cooked has been the meatless recipes, and without exception, they have all been wonderful! Some of these recipes are also my potluck dinner staples (esp the Tri-Color Chickpea Salad). The Quick Lasanga with Bean Sauce has been the hit of ... 		  
  







  
  
Strong, Slim, and 308 reviews
Lisa Drayer

McGraw-Hill, 2006

Life Changing Plan
One thing that I must say about this book is that you have to really be ready to change your diet in order to truly see the benefits. With that being said, once you are ready to commit to it, you will without a doubt reap the benefits of this plan. I was amazed by how easy it was to follow. I loved how she dumbed it down for me and just gave me options to choose for my breakfast, lunch, dinner, ...

Not only does this book include the exchanges, it also lists the nutrition information for the following: calories, carbohydrates, ...

Jane Stephenson, Bridgett Wagener

Appletree Pr, 1999

You Don't Need Another Calorie Book!
I have many books that count calories, fats, and carbs. They are usually too big to lug around or dont have many of our favorate foods listed as we know them, making them a chore to use. This is the only calorie counter you will need, its small and surprisingly has 99.9% of the foods we are eating at your fingertips. Unless u are a Doctor, this book will be fine for your everyday use. I have ...

This book is one of the better cookbooks I've had the pleasure of using. I am on the SCD diet for Ulcerative Colitis and the recipes included are of the kind that you truly will use every day. Multiple uses and variations are detailed. For instance the recipe for crepes is not only indicated for breakfast or fancy desserts, but is used for sandwich wraps as well. The Muffin Mix Muffins are ...

Right On the Money If Your Problem Is Insulin Resistance
Miryam Williamson's "Blood Sugar Blues" is an excellent book for people who find themselves suffering from a multitude of health problems that are often difficult for mainstream doctors to diagnose. Although insulin resistance is often the culprit, it is frequently overlooked by traditionally trained internists who, when all common blood and other testing comes back normal, don't understand the ...
