Bebe, for a better understanding (the best IMHO) of LC i recommend PP. Nothing I have read yet does a better job of explaining the biology and chemistry behind why LC is so good for your health. The Eades do a great job of giving you the low down in both scientific and laymans terms - you won't be lost. More like you'll be jazzed for more info PPLP is less about diet and weight loss than it is about finding the optimal prescription for a healthy life - it would make a great pre maintenance read. I'd buy PP and get PPLP from the Library then you can decide if you want to add it to your LC library as well!
