This is a non-technical account of low carbohydrate living.
It explains why it works, the health benefits, and most importantly, how to "do" the diet or, rather, diets since the book details three very different main approaches to controlling carbohydrates. It includes the basic low-carb diet (similar to Atkins or Protein Power), and the mini-binge diet (popularized as the Carbohydrate Addict's Diet), plus several variations, finally summing up the basic principles which tie them all together. It gives readers the tools to create a way of eating that will fit their body, mind, and lifestyle - helping them stay slim, energetic, and healthy for life.
