For my own needs (I am currently about 20 pounds overweight), I wanted to start with a 5 pound weight loss goal, and found many useful options in the 9-Cookbook set, which appealed to me. Since I am a semi-vegetarian, the Vegetarian Guide provided several easy recipes. The “Pepper Quiche” and “Egg Salad Sandwich” recipes were very enticing. In all, 14 Vegetarian recipes are provided. Not neglected, however, is the Red Meat Guide, which has 20 recipes in all.

One thing also available from the cookbooks are an abundance of herbs and seasonings. If you want to use more herbs and spices in your cooking, you’re going to get a good healthy dose of such spices as curry, thyme, cinnamon, and coriander. Sure enough, Dave and Karine include these seasonings in nearly all their recipes.

A lot of thought has gone into the creation of these Metabolic Cooking cookbooks. They are easy to follow, nicely presented and packed with useful content. I also like the ability to take a recipe found in the cookbook’s index, and click on a hypertext link to the recipe itself. Easy! many of the recipes have the results displayed in crisp color photos. The recipes are color-coded according to their Protein, Carbohydrate, Fat, and Veggie content. The Ingredients list and Directions are presented in a very clear, concise, and visually pleasing manner. Here is an example of a recipe for Apple Oatmeal Pancakes, taken from the Breakfast Guide.

The Bonus material provided with the 9 Cookbooks and the Fat Loss Optimizer Guide includes several instructive videos. For example, here is a scene from one of the bonus cooking videos, how to create “Noodleless Shrimp Pad Thai.”

The Metabolic Cookbook presents the nutritional value of foods in the context of “Metabolic Thermo-Charge.” This term is defined as “The metabolic powers certain foods have to make your body burn more body fat.” It is a way of rating foods, based on “how many calories your body is going to burn just breaking down the nutrients each time you consume a certain food.”

This effect is sometimes called thermic effect of foods, or TEF. For instance, the body expends more energy to just metabolize proteins, so a high protein food would have a higher thermogenic effect. Clinical research has shown that TEF is, in fact, enhanced by aerobic endurance exercise having sufficient duration and intensity. So, there are valid scientific studies supporting this concept.

Protein occupies a special place in the Metabolic Cookbook package, since it is central to the idea of eating food which has a high thermogenic effect. In fact, Dave Ruel and Karine Losier advocate eating only foods which have a minimum of 15 g protein in any given recipe.

Metabolic Cooking offers an alternative to the boring, mundane way of cooking usually utilized for weight loss. With 9 Cookbooks in all, and over 250 recipes, much variety has been built in to this program. This is one of the main selling points of Metabolic Cooking, the variety of recipes found in the 9 Cookbooks.

Also, with many thousands of other purchases of Metabolic Cookbook, you are not going to undergo this type of diet as a research subject. You are not alone in your weight loss endeavor!
