Book Description

March 18, 2005
The evidence is out there: lifestyle disorders such as obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease; chronic inflammatory diseases such as asthma or rheumatic illnesses; female infertility; cancer - all have a great deal to do with the kind of food we eat. Dr Lindberg, who runs a state-of-the-art clinic offering patients multidisciplinary treatment for these degenerative disorders, shows you how to change your lifestyle so you can control your weight and your blood sugar and improve your overall health. Returning to his Greek roots, he advocates eating natural foods and keeping a close eye on the Glycaemic Index. His exposition of current scientific thinking is fascinating and his recipes are at the most delicious end of the 'Mediterranean diet' spectrum. Buy, understand, eat and enjoy the healthy life!

About the Author

Dr Fedon Alexander Lindberg was born in Greece where he learned to appreciate the good things of life. A genetic propensity to diabetes in his family led him to become a specialist in internal medicine and endocrine disorders. He now runs a hugely successful clinic in Oslo; this is his first book - and it has already made him a household name in Norway.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, February 17, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Greek Doctor's Diet (Paperback)
This book explains things so well, it really helps you to understand what is causing obesity. It isn't really a diet, more about low glycemic, low carb eating. Lots of good fresh food, nothing extreme. The way humans are meant to eat... I wish he would republish, I bought it used. Well worth it.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Greek Doctors Diet, May 27, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Greek Doctor's Diet (Paperback)
I received the book in good condition and I find it very informative regarding insulin and other hormones. It has a diet that has normal food items that can be purchased at the supermarket which should be easy to follow and should help with insulin resistance.

It takes the middle road regarding carbohydrates, including some good carbs but not the white bread, white rice etc. which don't have much food value. It states that "You don't have to be a rocket scientist to realize that food can prevent and treat disease.

I enjoyed reading it and now have to put it into practise and see if I get results.
