Complex Carbohydrates

[Meg]

We had a thread going before Christmas about eating healthily for anxiety : which is essentially cutting down on sugars both the obvious and hidden sugars as this lessens the glucose spikes and possibly protects you from diabetes and a multitude of other things later in life .

Someone was wanting a cook book that looked at this issue.

I found a book called Easy GI diet by Helen Foster published by Hamlyn. It's got day menu plans, recipes as well as background reading on Glycaemic Index and charts. [)]

Are they easy cooking??

Yes , they seem to be - if somewhat out of the ordinary .

Salmon fishcakes is the most common thing there but Melanzane Parmigiana seems to be a fancy moussaka like dish.

There's a brazil nut and sunflower seed savory cake, stuffed onions, vege curry, griddled chicken with pearl barley to give you an idea... as well as lots of plain snack ideas

Oh chocolate is equal to cherries and is allowed.

It was me asking about cook book.

Will try and get a copy this week - mum and Fred the Dentist go away next week for a fortnight or so to his luxury pad just outside BOURNEMOUTH! (Apologies to anybody from the south coast).

So I can spend all week trying out new recipes, and eating better

(Mum would serve red meat every day if you let her. And she buys sausages. And puts grated cheese on everything) And I'm trying to loose some weight.

Thanks for the info
