Details Condition: BRAND NEW Format: Hardback ISBN: 9781911663201 Publisher: Pavilion Overview The Right Carb is a warm, practical guide that helps you rethink carbohydrates rather than fear them. Written by award-winning food writer Nicola Graimes, this hardback cookbook explains which carbs genuinely support energy, gut health, mood and sleep, then turns that knowledge into more than 50 simple, nutritious recipes. Ideal for home cooks and busy families, it replaces restriction with balance, showing how to enjoy grains, pulses and root vegetables as part of a healthy everyday diet. About the Book Carbohydrates have long been misunderstood, blamed for weight gain and dismissed as "empty" calories to avoid. The Right Carb sets the record straight. Nicola Graimes breaks down the different types of carbohydrate, from whole grains and pulses to starchy vegetables and fruit, explaining clearly which sources deserve a regular place on your plate and which are best kept as occasional treats. Rather than promoting another restrictive diet trend, the book champions moderation and variety, showing how the right carbs can improve digestion, stabilise energy levels, support a healthier gut microbiome and even improve mood and sleep quality. The recipe collection that follows is the true heart of the book: over 50 dishes spanning breakfasts, lunches, dinners and snacks, all built around nutrient-dense carbohydrate sources. Expect hearty grain bowls, comforting pulses-based stews, vibrant vegetable dishes and satisfying baked goods, each designed to be simple enough for a weeknight yet interesting enough to repeat. Nutritional notes accompany many recipes, helping readers understand exactly why each dish is beneficial, while adaptable ingredient swaps make it easy to suit family-friendly, vegetarian, vegan or flexitarian eating. The result is a cookbook that works as both an everyday reference and an ongoing source of meal inspiration, grounded in credible nutritional science rat
