What We Think of the Metabolic Cooking Program
After
flipping through the pages of the various cookbooks, I have to say that
I am impressed. The recipes all look quite tasty, and the program
offers great value. However, it’s not all good…
We’re Not Fond Of:
- The books are a bit hard on the eyes. The green of the books doesn’t mesh well with the fonts, and they’re hard to read. There’s not too much text, but what little there is will be tough to focus on.
- No explanation of why these foods boost metabolism. While the book offers a lot of great recipes, it doesn’t explain why these are so good for your metabolism. The focus of the program is obviously on protein, but without explaining why a high-protein diet is good for boosting your metabolism. Without the explanation of “WHY”, to me it’s kind of just another cookbook filled with delicious recipes.
- No primary ebook. When you get started with the Metabolic Cooking program, there’s nothing to help you navigate the books. There’s no primary ebook to help you understand how to read through the books, but it just jumps right into the recipes. They expect you to take their word that the recipes work, without giving you any background details on why they do.
We Love:
- Nutritional information. Each recipe comes with the number of calories, the grams of protein and carbs, and the important nutritional information you need to know. For those like me that are trying to stay strict with our calorie intake, these books are supremely helpful.
- Super simple instructions. There’s no complicated terms in the book, but all of the instructions are easy to follow. Truth be told, the recipes all contain between 5 and 10 steps, so you don’t have to worry about trying to figure out a complex recipe with hundreds of ingredients.
- Easy to use ingredients. Some of the recipes call for ingredients that you may not have handy, but most of them can be purchased at local supermarkets. You may need to shop at a few specialty stores to find everything, but it’s worth it to put out these delicious recipes.
Conclusion
Truth
be told, the downsides of the program don’t detract from the high value
of the Metabolic Cooking package. Not only do you get nine books filled
with dozens of recipes that you can use to prepare delicious foods, but
you also receive almost 20 bonus books with similarly valuable
information. It’s definitely worth the purchase if you want healthy,
calorie-controlled recipes. Its only flaw is not explaining a bit more
about the principles behind the recipes.
