The healthiest, most effective way to use the alternate-day dieting approach to weight loss Alternate-day dieting, which involves taking in a very low amount of calories on alternate days, is all the rage, and the diet offered in this book takes it to a whole new level. Here Patrick Holford outlines how, by combining elements of alternate-day fasting with a low glycemic-load (GL) diet, dieters can lose fat fast, without going hungry or compromising their health. For those new to the low-GL diet, it is a way to keep your blood sugar even—important because if your blood sugar level resembles a roller coaster you’ll have a lot of insulin in your system, and insulin is the fat-storing hormone. This book offers simple, easy-to-follow guidelines on how the diet works; an outline of what to eat and what to avoid on both phases of the diet; guidance on fitting the diet into your lifestyle; and a short, highly effective fat-burning exercise routine developed by former Gladiator and Olympic athlete Kate Staples. The benefits of the diet outlined in this book go beyond weight loss. As well as encouraging the storage of fat, insulin promotes disease and ageing, so combining a low-GL diet with alternate-day fasting will not only get rid of fat fast, but will also improve health and longevity.
