Publisher's Synopsis
This pocket guide gives you the true story about carbohydrate and the blood sugar connection. Health authorities everywhere stress the importance of high carbohydrate diets for good health and diabetes management. But which type of carbohydrate is best for people with diabetes? Here it's revealed that:
- Many 'taboo' foods don't cause the unfavourable effect on blood sugar they were believed to have.
- Diets with a low G.I. improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes.
- Many more foods make up a healthy diet for someone with diabetes than was once believed.
With G.I., fat and carbohydrate content tables of over 300 foods, the pocket guide can be used when shopping, dining out or planning the week's meals.
