4.1 4.1 out of 5 stars 103 ratings

BOOK 1 OF THE #1 BESTSELLING LOW-CARB DIET

The CSIRO Low-carb Diet is based on a major scientific study that has successfully helped Australians lose weight and improve their overall health.

Written for easy implementation at home, this book contains:
- a straightforward scientific explanation of why and how the diet works so well
- a detailed outline of your daily allowances for carbs, healthy fats and protein
- 12 weekly meal plans to help you reduce your carb intake initially, then increase it slightly for dietary flexibility
- 80 delicious recipes with all daily allowances calculated and explained
- a fully illustrated exercise section to show you how to combine movement with healthy eating to maximise health outcomes.

There is also detailed information about the benefits of the diet for those suffering from a range of metabolic conditions, including heart disease, high cholesterol and type 2 diabetes.

Accessible, affordable and achievable, this is a fully researched approach to better eating and improved health from Australia's peak science organisation.

This is a specially formatted fixed layout ebook that retains the look and feel of the print book.

    Well worth buying, especially if diabetic as really good info on control and diet. I am not diabetic but it makes you aware of the dangers of being over weight. Really tasty food and lots of achievable variety.

    First diet book I have ever used which tells you exactly what you need to know. However the diet is very salad heavy and this is rather expensive in this country in the winter.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Great content, poorly executed
    Reviewed in the United States on 11 June 2017

    Content is great and I have a lot of confidence in CSIROs scientific approach. Its just a shame that they didn't put the extra effort into utilising the full capabilities of the E-book format. Can't use the table of contents, book marks or anything. It would also be great if the text included hyperlinks to different sections of the book, because the nature of it is that you need to jump back and forth a lot. Hopefully a revision will come out soon, better still an app that creates shopping lists for you.

    My advice - By the hard copy
