by Marie Feldman, Jodi Dalyai

Lose weight while enjoying delicious meals with these 125 insulin resistant recipes and meal plans to improve your health and lower your risk for type 2 diabetes. Many people struggle with their weight, trying every new diet and health trend but still are unable to keep the weight off or lose unwanted belly fat. The problem may not be lack of willpower, but insulin resistance. When insulin can’t do its job of removing sugar from the blood, that sugar is turned to fat, causing weight gain and increasing the risk of type 2 diabetes. But this damage can be reversed simply by changing your diet and activity level. In The Everything Guide to the Insulin Resistance Diet, you will learn how to choose healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish, and lean poultry, while limiting the amount of unhealthy fat, sugar, meats, and processed starches. Now you can make the lifestyle changes you need to lose weight and improve your health with this valuable resource that includes 125 recipes and a 10-week plan for healthy eating and increased activity. With this guidebook you can have the body—and health—of your dreams, all while eating the delicious food you love!

I started 2022 with a reading challenge for 52 Graphic Novels. Unfortunately, in early 2022 I was diagnosed with diabetes. I changed my reading challenge to tackle this new diagnosis. This is one of over 100+ books I read in 2022. These titles taught me about insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, Whole Foods living and nutrition. I was able to make the lifestyle changes needed to put my diabetes in remission and lower my BMI. I still have lots of work to do but I hope this list helps you get started on your health journey.

As I mentioned in a recent review, I was recently diagnosed with PCOS. For those who don’t know, PCOS has links to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Because of that, after receiving my diagnosis, my doctor recommended I look into the insulin resistance diet. Luckily, my library had this book in the collection, and as soon as the person who had it checked out returned it, I was able to dig in. While I haven’t dug into any of the recipes from it yet, I am very excited to! Despite my interest in the recipes in this book, the beginning of the book rather soured my opinion...

Very Informative

This book takes the guess work out of learning, living and planning for a life with insulin resistance. Easy to understand. Very straightforward. Highly recommend.

Nothing new here but does a good job of covering the basics.

It's a very basic guide for insulin resistance, 200 pages were of recipes.

Lots of outdated advice, and focused more on weight loss by any means necessary, rather than blood sugar balance. Would not recommend.
