Customer Reviews

Every carb counter needs this book!

Every day people are finding out they are diabetic. Counting Carbohydrates adds years to your life if you find yourself to be a diabetic. This book actually can help with meal planning for both the type 1 or type 2 diabetic. Sometimes it is just not practical to count carbs at fast food locations, beginning on page 557 is the fast food section. The calorie and carb content in this section is quite a revelation. It is very practical stuff. The book covers it all: from breakfast bars to candy, cheese, and cornbread to every type of food you can come up with, these pages cover everything. This book actually saves lives because it gives you the facts. The diabetic no longer can do the death dance with the facts in hand. As a funeral director I often see diabetes as the secondary cause of death. The truth is there is still no cure for diabetes. This book is a welcome tool in blood sugar control. Every Diabetic needs to purchase this book.
