(HealthNewsDigest.com) - In their best-selling book The Insulin-Resistance Diet – Revised and Updated (McGraw-Hill, $16.95), Dr. Cheryle Hart, MD and Mary Kay Grossman, RD (co-authors of The Feel Good Diet, McGraw-Hill 2007) offer a lifelong, livable eating program that controls insulin and leads to long-term weight loss.  They explain the complex relationship between food, blood sugar, insulin, and fat and how developing an insulin resistance can lead to weight gain and diabetes.  More than 95 percent of the authors' patients have successfully lost weight and maintained it with the program, which links carbohydrates with the right amount of protein for maximum weight loss.

The book offers self-tests to determine insulin resistance, recommended food lists, real-world eating strategies, and over 45 healthful recipes.
