James M. Huett: I am a diabetic and are having problems regulating my blood sugar. It was recommended to me to use the Glycemic Index and stay within the correct numbers in order to improve my blood sugar levels. This is a handy book which gives a breakdown of all the foods that I eat so I can do a better job and improve my overall health.

Jill Woods: So this is a great basic compact guide to have in your bag if you are shopping or out and about as a guide to help you make healthier food choices.

Secondly, unlike previous diet guide books I've bought, other than covering fruit, veg, and meat the book does not include many basic ingredients, so if you are doing a lot of cooking from scratch very few of your pantry ingredients are covered by the book. It talks about loaves of bread but not the constituent parts of a loaf. Equally, it talks about muffins and cakes but not the ingredients that you would use to make them like all of the different flours now on the market or the different sources of fats or sugar.
As another example, the milk section covers dairy & soy but not the range of other alternative kinds of milk now on the market.
So if you eat lots of processed foods this book is great but if you are a good home cook you'll need to get a...
