Description
The Real Meal Revolution: Changing the World, One Meal at a Time by Prof Tim Noakes, Sally-Ann Creed, Jonno Proudfoot and David Grier presents the authors’ low-carbohydrate, high-fat approach to eating, commonly associated with Banting. The book challenges conventional ideas about dietary fat, carbohydrates and calorie restriction, explaining the authors’ view that controlling carbohydrate intake and choosing natural, nutrient-dense foods can help regulate appetite, improve metabolic health and support weight management.
Alongside the nutritional discussion is a substantial collection of recipes designed around the Real Meal Revolution approach, with practical guidance on what to eat, how to plan meals, shop and cook. The book combines contributions from a scientist, nutritionist and two chef-athletes, bringing together nutritional arguments, meal-planning advice and recipes in a format intended for everyday use. First published by Quivertree Publications in 2013, The Real Meal Revolution became one of South Africa’s best-known books on Banting and low-carbohydrate eating and was awarded the Nielsen Booksellers Choice Award for Book of the Year in 2014.
