For years, nutritionists have claimed that the only way to lose weight was to eat less, count calories and cut out fat.
Four decades later, one must admit that low fat diets are a total failure. While energy consumption has decreased,
obesity bas multiplied by 400%.
Inspired by Atkins, opinion leaders declared carbohydrates the real evil. These leaders then switched from one
extreme to another recommending low carb diets. However, aside from a temporary weight loss, people subsequently
suffered from cardiovascular problems by eating too much fat.
This is why the Montignac Method is the only perfectly balanced diet. It suggests the right carbs
and the right fats:
- Carbohydrates are chosen according to their GI (glycaemic index). The lower the GI the
most significant the weight loss!
- Fats are chosen on the cardia criteria knowing that some fats lower risks and even
help weight loss.
Michel Montignac was the first nutritionist in the world to introduce the glycaemic concept into the weight loss area.
Since launching his first book in 1986, he remains one of the foremost experts on the glycaemic index.
Over the last years, his nutritional recommendations have not only been scientifically proven but they have also inspired many other diet best selling books.
The Montignac Method is a leading concept in the diet world. More than 16 million Montignac books have already been
sold in 42 countries and have been translated into 24 languages.
