New Glucose Revolution: Low GI Gluten-free Living New Glucose Revolution Low GI Gluten free Living, ISBN 9780733622380 and books by Prof Jennie Brand-Miller, Philippa Sandall, Kate Marsh on sale at thebookshelf.co.nz New Glucose Revolution: Low GI Gluten–free Living is a practical guide written by experts to show how to combine a gluten–free diet with the lifelong health benefits of low GI eating. Coeliac disease is triggered by gluten in grains like wheat, barley, rye and triticale. It isnt rare. It is the most common and one of the most under–diagnosed hereditary autoimmune diseases. There is no cure. You dont outgrow it. People with coeliac disease MUST eat a gluten–free diet for the rest of their lives. But although the gluten–free diet is a lifesaver, if not well planned it can be an unhealthy diet due to the absence of grain foods and the higher fat and sugar content of many gluten–free products. And all too often its high GI because slowly digested staples for the rest of us such as wheat–based low GI breads and breakfast cereals, pasta, and traditional oats have to be eliminated. This book is a practical guide written by experts to show how to combine a gluten–free diet with the lifelong health benefits of low GI eating.
