Actual lists of food to avoid, recipes...From: Panacea (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 20 Dec 2001 10:06:55 -0600 (CST)
My husband is going nuts (he does most of the food preparation) because he can't figure out what types of foods are good for me. I have a hard time telling. All I know is what types of foods I've heard mentioned are bad (potatoes, carrots, corn, etc) but I don't know the _rules_... you can say "high glycemic, low glycemic" all you want, but the fact is the nutritional information on the packages doesn't tell you the glycemic level. I need to know how to read the nutritional info on packages in order to know what is good and what is bad. I've kind of worked out that you look at the carb vs protein content, and avoid foods where the sugar content is at high ratio to the carb. For instance if it says: 32g Carb 30g Sugar, that is something to avoid. That cuts out ALL fruit juices (besides diet). :( But THEN... THEN I look at the nutritional info on a pack of instant potatoes and it says 25g carb 2g sugar!!!! I don't GET it! :( So can anyone point me to actual _lists_ of food to avoid, some way to learn the _rules_, how to _use_ the nutritional info on the backs of packages in order to figure out what is ok for me to eat. PLEASE
