What s the easiest, healthiest and most effective way to lose weight, look good and stay slim? Nutritional expert Patrick Holford and Kate Staples, athlete and ex-Gladiator, say you don t need to be a saint every day and show you how to switch on your own skinny genes with two simple changes to your diet and an eight minute exercise regime. Because what you eat is as important as how much and when you eat, and this low-GL (glycemic load) diet cuts your need to make insulin, which in turn switches on genes that help you burn fat fast. The information, diet plans and exercises in the book are well laid out and easy to follow, and you can even go online to watch Kate demonstrating the workout routine!
