5.0 out of 5 stars The Diabetes Carbohydrate and Calorie Counter, July 14, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Diabetes Carbohydrate & Calorie Counter: 3rd Edition (Mass Market Paperback)
I was told by my doctor that I am pre-diabetic and advised to try to lower my blood sugar by diet alone. All I knew, or thought I knew, was that I should give up sugar. Speaking with a nutritionist taught me that dealing with carbohydrates was the key and I needed help. The Diabetes Carbohydrate & Calorie Counter begins with a discussion of diabetes itself, how to count carbs, plan meals, deal with eating out, specific chapters on sugar, fiber, and the glycemic index, and references to internet sites where it is possible to learn more. How to use a carbohydrate counter is discussed and finally a lengthy list not only of just about every individual food but brand name items as well. This is a comprehensive wealth of information that I find extremely helpful to have on hand. With it, I have managed to lower my blood sugar from a high of 120 to 90 and I am very pleased. I no longer feel lost at sea in dealing with my diagnosis.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the book you'd want....., February 11, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Diabetes Carbohydrate & Calorie Counter: 3rd Edition (Mass Market Paperback)
After some positive reviews, I ordered this book and I'm totally disappointed. I already knew the GI information from Internet: this book is just a compilation of same GI (glycemic index) tables, only printed version.
I wouldn't buy it.
