Book Description

December 30, 2003
Nationally respected nutritional consultant Adele Puhn shares her groundbreaking solution to a problem that affects many Americans: insulin resistance. This metabolic mix-up can literally control body chemistry and shorten your life, fueling cravings and starving cells of needed nutrients. Puhn tackles this problem with an easy-to-use program that helps the body use carbohydrates more efficiently while also burning fat, strengthening the immune system, and aiding weight loss. Through her simple, practical method Puhn shows how to change the way you eat—without deprivation and unrealistic restrictions—so you can start on the path to a healthier, happier, more fulfilling way of life.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Carb-Careful Solution, by Adele Puhn, July 23, 2005
This review is from: The Carb-Careful Solution: When Your Diet Doesn't Work Anymore . . . (Paperback)
This book makes total sense. It takes effort to eat vegetables and proteins, as most Americans eat unhealthy diets of fast food, junk and anything out of a box. This type of eating is causing even children to be diagnosed with diabetes and other illnesses. Our bodies were made to eat vegetables, fruits, proteins and grains, but the average American ingests more starches than anything else. Starches are already hidden in many processed foods. If people would eat mostly fresh, non-starchy vegetables with proteins, along with a couple of fruits a day and only 1 or 2 servings of a WHOLE grain or healthy serving of fresh corn or a potato, they would heal from their weight and health issues. It's that simple. Most people either don't care enough or do not want to take responsibility for their health or weight. That's why -- for some -- this book might be too much work. However, it has worked wonders for me, my clients and my friends...and everyone else who is willing to change their unhealthy lifestyles. I have a lot of energy as a result of following Ms. Puhn's recommendations.

5.0 out of 5 stars For the Serious Dieter Looking for a Lifestyle Change, February 3, 2006
This review is from: The Carb-Careful Solution: When Your Diet Doesn't Work Anymore . . . (Paperback)
This book is extremely helpful for the person who is ready to make a complete lifestyle change. It makes more sense if you first read the book that comes before it, "The 5-Day Miracle Diet." This book builds on the principles of that book and is a good choice for people 35 and over. My entire family is on this plan and we all have lost weight and have much more energy. This is not for the person who is wishy-washy about dieting. It takes a real committment, but it works.
