A new year, a new look
We have redesigned GI News to make it easier to read, to access past issues, search for information, print articles of interest or recipes that you'd like to prepare, and to link up with sites of interest. But although the look may have changed, just about everything else stays the same. You can still post your comments on our stories and news briefs or send your questions to the GI Group in the usual way.
We wish you all the best for a happy and healthy 2007 and look forward to hearing from you in the months to come.

Thank you so much,for the improved web pages. I still have bad print at the bottom of pages 3, 11 12, 19, and 23. --The bottom line is "vertically challenged" to put it mildly. -- A programmer told me that this can be fixed, so that a line is never split between two pages, nor squeezed vertically.
You have a great newsletter. I appreciate it very much. I just wish that I could print it out better. (Windows XP-home; IE 7.0; HP 2340 laser printer - new, high speed, network, duplexing. - My equipment and software are state of the art.)
Thak you, - Lonnie Wall
Hi Lonnie,
We'll look into this and get back to you. Thanks for pointing this out.
Great Site,
After reading the book The New Glucose Revolution, and discovered this site, I have put myself and to a degree my family on a lower GI diet (we have a huge heart and diabetes family history between us), the only way I have lost weight in the past was to have pretty well starved myself while exercised, not sustainable. After reading the book I feel I have maybe found a more healthier and sustainable way to be a healthier happier me. Ta guys - Sharon.
Sharon and family, good luck. Stay in touch and let us know how you go and what works for you and what doesn't.
Just ot say thank from South Africa for such a fantastic Gi newsletter resource!It is well put together, neatly and logically presented -and most of all, it is innovative and practical.I have lost 11 kg since July 2006 and it is the first Christmas that I have not put on any extra weight...and I had a food feast!Koos Rautenbach
