One of the pioneers of using GI (glycaemic index) in relation to weight loss was Frenchman Michel Montignac. His diet has a large number of followers and is based on the glycaemic index of foods as well as food combinations. According to Michel Montignac, combining certain foods makes you fat, and ultimately we dont put on weight by eating too much but by eating badly. He sees weight gain as being linked to eating bad carbohydrates and bad food combinations.

Since launching his first book in 1986, he remains one of the foremost experts on the glycemic index. Over the last years, his nutritional recommendations have not only been scientifically proven but they have also inspired many other diet best selling books. For years, nutritionists have claimed that the only way to lose weight was to eat less, count calories and cut out fat. Four decades later, one must admit that low fat diets are a total failure. While energy consumption has decreased, obesity has multiplied by 400%. Inspired by Atkins, opinion leaders declared carbohydrates the real evil. These leaders then switched from one extreme to another recommending low carb diets. However, aside from a temporary weight loss, people subsequently suffered from cardiovascular problems by eating too much fat. This is why the Montignac Method is the only perfectly balanced diet. It suggests the right carbs and the right fats: Carbohydrates are chosen according to their GI (glycemic index). The lower the GI the most significant the weight loss! Fats are chosen on the cardio criteria knowing that some fats lower risks and even help weight loss.
