Ably compiled and deftly edited by Sue Spitler, 1,001 Low-Carb Recipes For Life is a healthy anthology of delicious, kitchen- tested low-carbohydrate recipes for the weight- and health-conscious. Dishes all types, from breakfasts and breads to soups, poultry, meats, seafood, vegetables and side dishes, salads, snacks, pizza, and desserts are presented with simple, straightforward instructions. A brief introduction offers some quick pointers on low-carb diets and calculating net carbs and the glycemic index, but the majority of 1,001 Low-Carb Recipes For Life is devoted to the recipes themselves. Each recipe also features a sidebar informing the cook of its net carbohydrates, calories, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, protein, and carbohydrates per serving. Very highly recommended for carb-counters everywhere -- as well as anyone else with an interested in keeping an eye on their overall caloric intake as part of a general health regimen.

Dieters are increasingly embracing the concept that too much carb consumption hinders weight loss and general good health, but low-carb cookbooks have been few and far between until lately. In 1,001 Low-Carb Recipes for Life, food pro Sue Spitler and dietitian Linda Yoakam unravel the mysteries of this approach and show readers how to maximize its benefits by eating for good health - without sacrificing good taste. In clear terms, they explain how to eat healthily during the maintenance phase of a low-carb diet, why the low-carb diet works, what to eat or avoid eating, and how to keep the pounds off. They also discuss weight loss expectations and safety concerns, and provide complete nutritional data for each recipe. Also low in fat and cholesterol, the dishes include Caribbean Potato Salad, Sesame Shrimp Stir-Fry, and some surprises like Black Bottom Pie and Soft Molasses Cookies.
