Es ist quasi das U.S.-Standardwerk bezüglich Ernährung mit Prä-Diabetes (Insulinresistenz) und mit Diabetes. Ich habe es in einer Fernsehsendung für Personen mit extremem Übergewicht (100< BMI) gesehen; dort hat der Arzt es einer Patientin mitgegeben. Der Inhalt ist sehr einfach strukturiert, da es sich hauptsächlich um Lebensmitteltabellen/-listen handelt. Am Anfang jedes Themas ist etwas Theorie präsentiert, welche aber sehr (!) verständlich und nachvollziehbar ist. Ich habe es mir im Rahmen einer 1200 kcal Diät, zsm. mit einem entsprechendem Kochbuch, bezüglich der "Dr Now Diät", gekauft. Ich habe in 3 Wochen bisher 8 kg verloren. Man muss seine Essgewohnheiten jedoch radikal ändern, nämlich auf "gesund", und nicht zu oft, und nicht zu viel essen. Es erfordert Disziplin! Lohnt sich aber sichtlich bei mir.

A basic list of foods that you would buy at a grocery store. Carbohydrate content for small amount of each item , so that if you measure your food, you could theoretically calculate the carbohydrate content of your portion. Type font used in the list is very small so that I must concentrate to be able to read the charts. Foods are described either as ‘low carbohydrate’ , eat as much as you want or limited quantity. Focus is only on carbohydrate content so it only comments on carbohydrate content. This is NOT a ‘guide to a healthy diet’. If you want a basic carbohydrate list, this book does have that list.

Very helpful for any diabetic. Easy to see and use.

Good summaries

This is a good book of food lists from authoritative sources, The American Diabetes Association and the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. It contains a lot of helpful information for meal planning and for managing diabetes. The book does not contain specific guidelines for determining your daily food exchanges or calories. You are advised to meet with an RDN for that. Note that this book has many identical pages to “Choose Your Foods: Food Lists for Weight Management,” so if you have one book you might not want to get the other.
