Editorial Reviews: Product Description Whether you're following a diet plan that requires carb-counting, you have diabetes, or simply because you are conscious of the quantity of carbs you consume, The Ultimate Guide to Accurate Carb Counting is the all-in-one resource for practically and effectively managing your carb intake. Certified diabetes educator, type 1 diabetic, and Think Like a Pancreas author Gary Scheiner focuses on carb counting in a real-world context, and his explanations and advice--in addition to being complete and thoroughly accurate--are geared towards the most common foods and eating habits. The Ultimate Guide to Accurate Carb Counting tells you everything you need to accurately keep track of your carb intake, including the basic rationale for and the theory behind carb-counting, as well as explanations of simple to advanced techniques; how to read and understand food labels, and how to estimate the nutritional values of unlabelled foods; resources for carb counting at major restaurant chains; an explanation of the glycemic index and its influence on carb-counting; adjusting for fiber and sugar substitutes; and a comprehensive listing of nutrient data for 2,500 foods, including carb and fiber values, exchanges, carb factors, and glycemic index values.

Customer Reviews: Read 1 more reviews... Great Book Beyond Just Carb COunts November 5, 2008 Well this book was really a great mistake. What I mean is, I was trying to find a book that was just a list of carb counts. Instead, we received a bok filled with helpful information on carb counting beyond 'the list'. My husband is a type 1 diabetic, and I really watch my carbs, so this book has helped us both a lot. The info on stuff like sugar alcohols, etc. helps a lot because many of the packages are labeled in misleading ways regarding 'net' carbs'. THis book gave us some answers as to which ones I can subtract (for weight control) as opposed to which ones my husband can and cant subtract (that still can affect bood sugar). The eating out guides are grerat, but the way restaurants change menus, the info gets outdated quickly. However, getting into the habit of asking for nutrition info makes it easy to work it all out for yourself. Great Diabetic Infomation June 24, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful The great thing about this book is it really explains Diabetes and and how Nutrition works and gives so much needed information. Very good and easy to understand and has all the Calorie, Carbohydrate Counters. It's kind of like Diabetes for Dummies... Very helpful book February 25, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful This book is well-written and contains much information that is very helpful for those who have the responsibilty for monitoring carbs for a person with diabetes. I especially appreciate the sections dealing with sugar alcohols and carb counts for ethnic and restuarant foods. What a help! Easy way to count carbs!!!! August 31, 2007 8 out of 8 found this review helpful We have had several books on this topic but none have been as complete. This one book clearly teaches how to count carbs easily. There are exhaustive lists on foods and their "carb-counts". And there are even charts of many well-known eating establishments and how to count carbs when eating "in" or "taking out". Good Read May 30, 2007 6 out of 6 found this review helpful The information in this book is exactly what I was looking for. The author is charming, presenting the material in an entertaining way, but also very concise.
