I bought George's other book 'The Complete Low-Carb cookbook' and loved it because he uses ordinary ingredients and says so.
I ordered this expecting the same, but find some of these recipes require oat bran and soy flour. Soy flour has a bad reputation, grown on land heavily sprayed with glyphosate with dreadful extraction methods. The plant steroids contained can have oestrogenic effects and suppress thyroid function. Probably all OK in small amounts, but I would rather not use it. The other recipe's are OK, but too many American shellfish recipes. 'Take 1 dozen raw cherrystone clams', '1 pound of blue crab meat', '12 snow crab claws'....take out a mortgage for dinner!
I continue my search for good low-carb cookbooks. They are few and far between. Dana Carpender uses too many extraordinary ingredients, Atkins doesn't even begin -crazy portions and things like 10g onion in a recipe for 6.
I know what I am talking about, I have lost nearly 6 stone and controlled my diabetes. I am hoping to make low-carbing a way of life. The world certainly doesn't cater for us diabetics!
