This book is very helpful whether you are counting carbs, calories, or fat. It is easy to read and use. It lists foods, alcohol, fair-carnival-stadium foods, restaurant and international with the calories (C), fat (F), and carbohydrates (Cb) in columns next to the foods. The guidelines are phenomenal. There is a listing of weight control tips along with body fat distribution that gives a scale for your BMI according to your weight and height. Some of the other guides include diabetic, high blood pressure, salt sodium guide and counter, and reshaping eating habits. After discussing and reviewing my diet with a diabetic dietician I purchased this book for better health as I am a newly diagonosed diabetic. It is great to be able to look at a glance what individual foods contain, and be able to figure out a menu based on the total amount of carbs and calories one is alloted for a meals or snacks during the day. Some of you maybe think you are not overweight, and eat healthy. I though I ate healthly. My weight calculating the BMI is not high, I am at a healty low health risk weight. Type diabetes runs in my family. I challenge you to read the book and see how healthy you really are.Read full review
I have this book and love it! If you want to know what you are putting into your mouth this is the book for you. This tells you absolutely everything you want to know about food. It breaks each food/drink/snack ect. calories, fat and carbs. This book shows the most popular restaurants and their menu items, it even includes the famous "fair/carnival" items that we all like to indulge on. This is well worth the money and is small enough to tote anywhere. It will become your food bible and you won't want to leave home without it. Trust me I lost 50 lbs in 6 months and this was the book that I lived with day and night to get me through the tough spots when I didn't know what to eat. If you are a diabetic, have heart issues, or just want to lose weight then you need this book. This man IS the Calorie King for a reason!Read full review
This book is great for any type of food or fast food restaurant. It has an easy to use interface that shows Calories, Fat, Carbs, and more for every food currently available in the U.S. I particularly love the fast food restaurant section. It is so hard to find fast food that you can have as part of your diet. This book gives you the information you need to make informed decisions, and make sure your guess work doesn't have you eating something that isn't on your diet.
I started on a diet and wanted to learn the calories of all the current fast food items out there. The book is informative and helpful and written in an easy to use manner. It's small and easy to carry around and has great tips in the front. Colorful and fun!!!
This is the best reference book for carb counting, Calories and specific info about the product. Very user friendly. It has all the foods you could think of even the fast food restaurants (McDonald's, Burger King ..etc). I looked though a lot of books but this was the best I have seen. It was recommended for me by my dietitian.I bought 4 of them 2 I gave to family members ,one I keep at home and the other I keep in my car.I highly recommend this book to everyone who's concerned about his or her health.
