- More complicated than Rick Gallop's book, but worth a look if you want to understand insulin mechanism and its effect on health.
- Rick Gallop's Diet Green_Light CookBook: 100 Green-Light Helathy Eating Recipes and Lifestyle Tips (external link)
- An excellent cookbook for those who are eating to balance blood sugar levels, and for anyone who wants to minimise their risk of developing insulin resistance, adult-onset diabetes, heart disease and stroke (so that’s all of us, then). Just be aware that the book ignores one healthy eating golden rule: the jury’s out on the harmfulness of artificial sweeteners, so choose fructose (natural fruit sugar with a low GI of 19) instead of aspartame etc, and avoid food with added artificial sweeteners if you possibly can. This means that diet sodas and diet yoghurts etc are out.
