Présentation de l'éditeur
Carbs & Cals is a visual guide to carbohydrate and calorie counting. It contains over 1,200 photographs of popular food and drink items, clearly showing the amount of carbohydrate and calories in each photo. For the first time, carbohydrate and calorie counting has been turned into an easy-to-understand, practical, visual guide. The 13-page introduction to the book explains the effect of carbohydrate on blood sugar levels and explores the amount of calories we need in our diet, giving practical tips on how to use the book for diabetes control and weight management. The 217 pages of photographs are arranged into 15 colour-coded sections: Biscuits & Crackers; Bread; Breakfast; Cakes & Bakery Items; Desserts; Drinks; Fruit; Meals; Meal Accompaniments; Meat & Fish; Potatoes; Rice, Pasta & Grains; Snacks; Take-aways; and Vegetables & Pulses. There are up to 6 different portion photos for each food (with their corresponding carbohydrate and calorie value displayed above each image). This provides an easy comparison to the food on your plate and a helpful guide to the carbohydrate and calories you are consuming. The prepared/cooked weight is also shown below each photo. Carbohydrate counting is an important part of diabetes management, particularly for Type 1 diabetes. This book will provide an invaluable tool for anyone engaged in this process. For people with Type 2 diabetes or those trying to lose weight, Carbs & Cals vastly simplifies the calorie counting process. It takes out the guesswork and time spent weighing food by showing you the calorie content in each food photograph. This allows you to make choices on how to reduce calories by choosing a smaller portion or swapping a high calorie snack for a healthier option.
