Review by: Saraswati
Being from a family with known insulin resistance, I've been researching this
disease and diets for years. I saw this book on the new book list and decided
to see if it was something new. Sorry to say it's just Atkins but French. The
only program difference I saw was that during maintenance you need to maintain 1
day as all protein vs keeping a balance. Dr. Dukan does believe that we overeat
and gain weight due to psychological reasons such as pleasure. (No mention of
the body's ability to adapt or homeostatic imbalances.) His diet is based on
finding foods that fulfill the psyche and nutritional need. The recipes are
modern and appear to be relatively simple. There are the "Dr. Dukan" products
that are used but he provides the reader with the QR code so you can go right to
the ordering website. The recipes do not have any nutritional information along
with them nor do they tell you when they should be use best. On the plus side,
he does add more plant protein info into the mix. In the end...SSDD. I will
post comments as I try some of the recipes.
