Hi and welcome Alissa,

This article gives you the bare bones of Michel Montignac's story;

- as far as low GI recipes you might like to seek out Sydney University's Prof Jennie Brand-Miller's site and books;

If on the other hand you were interested in my opinion after reseaching and living this way of life for over a year now, I would say to you IMHO, that low GI eating is a pale imitation of a 'real' reduced carb way of life!

But the choice is yours of course. Good luck.

Cheers,

Malcolm
