[rear cover:] "Trouble with insulin begins when your body becomes resistant to this hormone that controls blood sugar levels, usually caused by a diet high in refined sugars and carbohydrates. Insulin resistance, or syndrome X, affects a staggering 1 in 5 people and lies behind many serious health problems, including: heart disease, type II diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, PCOS and deep vein thrombosis. The good news is that syndrome X and its knock-on effects are completely reversible, and this book offers a clear nutritional plan to help you do just that."
