Common Questions and Answers about Carbohydrate counting workshop

carbohydrate

Avatar f tn When used in larger amounts, as in cooking and baking, these calories and carbohydrate should be accounted for by carbohydrate counting or by using starch/bread exchanges. As an example, one half cup of SPLENDA® Granulated contributes 12 grams of carbohydrates and 11 to 20 grams are counted as one starch exchange. In SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener Packets, sucralose is combined with maltodextrin and dextrose. These ingredients contribute 1 gram of carbohydrate and four calories per packet.
Avatar f tn While it is normal to have a rise in blood sugar level after a meal, excessive rise in blood sugar levels could indicate inappropriate dosage/ timing of injecting the insulin or excessive or inappropriate proportion of carbohydrate in diet. You could start by slightly lowering the carbohydrate and increasing the protein portion of diet. If this does not seem to help, I would suggest consulting your treating endocrinologist for adjustment in dosage/ timing of the insulin. Hope this is helpful.
Avatar m tn if possible , start carbohydrate counting. You may need to buy a basic scale in order to measure raw materials going into your curries and their carbohydrate count. The net has number of sites which can help in calculation. Best of health.

973741 tn?1342342773 I'm wondering about this topic. Does counting your carbs help prevent diabetes? An essential thing to do if you are worried about diabetes? What are the best ways to do this?
Avatar f tn I have been formally diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and possible Carbohydrate Intolerance. My issue is when I eat a load of carbs, it hits up to 3 days later and I can't hardly get out of bed and am weak most of the day. Everything I read about Carb Intolerance says that fatigue usually hits within the first few hours. Has anyone else experienced this? Carb crash, a day or days after the carbs are eaten?
Avatar n tn Does that website have a listing of foods with CHO's only? It looks like they have alot of stuff including a hefty membership fee. I'm always sorry to see that. What I want is a list that only has carb counts of many many foods. I have a book or two with that but I want it online, ready for me to cut and paste and make it customized for my twin daughters.
Business woman1 I suggest you eat frequent small meals and stop counting calories. It is best to eat lots of fruits and non-starchy green veggies, go slow on fats, eat carbohydrates in moderation and increase your protein intake (lean cuts, whites of eggs etc). Drink plenty of water and non fattening fluids such as clear soups etc. Look for hidden calories in salads and soups and avoid them (eg: cheese, butter, dressings etc). Also, you need to exercise regularly.
645390 tn?1338555377 Well, I sent an email about a 8 hour workshop about relationships and MS coming up, sponsored by the MS society. He was "happily" willing to go. I signed us up, and feel pretty good about it. There was actually a fee for the course, so I don't think he would back out now :) (by the way, I send email, text, due to our busy busy schedules, and we generally only get a few minutes to talk on most days. As ridiculous as it sounds, this is how we communicate too often.
Avatar m tn What a feat ! You are brave ! I have 4 more days on inc , and counting down the hours. Prayers for Great Labs !
Avatar m tn Due to stomach problems, I have decided to try a Specific Carbohydrate Diet. Has anyone experienced relief on this diet? So basically, this is what I got from it- fresh vegtables, fresh fruits, lean meats, most nuts, NO LACTOSE, NO SUGAR (except in fruits and honey), and NO STARCHES. Is this about right? Also, what is the policy on yogurt and coconut milk?
Avatar m tn My dog was diagnosed with leptospirosis .. Over the next few days i knew this was not so, so went to another vet who after checking her over agreed with me and said this is either a lung infection or a tumour in the lung. different medication was given and if she was no different we would do x-rays. That night i gave her the first of the medication where 3 hours later she had a horrible breathing attack.
Avatar f tn thank you so much!! I have always been confused because my doctor never told me anything about that! also, I learntabout this thing called "carbs counting", is it necessary for all diabetes to know about this?
Avatar m tn I don't remember seeing anything on MedHelp about this Company/drug which is now in phase II trials. It claims to reverse fibrosis and cirrhosis in NASH and NAFDL but I see no reason why it wouldn't be beneficial in HCV and HBV patients as well as liver diseases in general. I've been watching Galectin since June 2013. Sept. 10, 2013, 8:00 a.m. EDT Galectin Therapeutics Receives US Patent for Potential Ground-Breaking Treatment for Fatty Liver Disease NORCROSS, Ga.
