Description

From the author of the bestselling Living the Low Carb Life (more than 100,000 copies sold) comes an indispensable reference to help dieters maintain their controlled-carbohydrate lifestyle-both in the kitchen and on the go. To stay on a low-carb regimen, dieters-and others just tying to eat healthily-need facts: what's a good side dish to have with that fish? Is it okay to order that delicious-sounding special at the restaurant? Certified nutrition specialist and bestselling author Jonny Bowden provides the information, in a handy, portable pocket guide to making smart carb-conscious food choices. It contains the net carb, calorie, protein, fat, and fiber counts for more than 2,000 foods, as well as nutritional data for the new low-carb products on the market. Plus, there's valuable information on sugar alcohols, essential Omega fats, the glycemic index and blood sugar levels, and Bowden's own expert individual food recommendations. Jonny Bowden, M.A., C.N.S., is a certified nutrition specialist, a former personal trainer, and the resident nutrition and weight loss expert on ivillage.com. Author of Living the Low-Carb Life, Bowden also makes frequent appearances on television and radio shows, runs a busy nutrition consulting practice in Los Angeles, and can be reached via his website, JonnyBowden.com.
