Thanks. Yes, I have read it, although I am following Protein Power. It is a very informative book and the newsletters are good too.

2. Date: Original publication dat
2000
3, Basic Philosophy/Strategy: Low-Carb, or 40/30/30 etc.
This can be used in the main index as a summary.
"A low carb diet that is in complete harmony with the actual metabolic processes of the human body."
Maximum 90 carbs per day. No Ketosis. Minimum protein requirements based on weight. No fat restriction.
4. By the numbers: Percentages, phases
See #3.
5. Method: Details of the method, what to eat, what to avoid
Each meal includes protein equal to or greater than carbs. Some foods are recommended over others but none are prohibited.
"There are no complicated formulas for your daily food intake, but there is a complete guide that will take you through a step-by-step process to help you relearn how to choose your foods. A Personal Meal Diary makes it easy for you to monitor your daily intake, to know when you are eating correctly, and when you can have that special treat."
6. Typical menu:
Breakfast: 2 oz turkey breast, 2 oz muenster cheese, 4 oz OJ, coffee = 28 protein, 14 carbs
Lunch: 1/2 cup tuna salad, 8 ritz crackers, sugar free lemonade = 29 protein, 14 carbs
