 Ossie-Sharon 4 years ago | Hi, charrobe. What you are seeing here are diabetes exchanges, not grams. The exchanges translate to the following approximate nutritional values:
1 carbohydrate exchange = 15 grams of carbohydrates + up to 3 grams of protein
1 protein exchange = 7 grams of protein + up to 5 grams of fat
1 fat exchange = 5 grams of fat
1 fruit exchange = 15 grams of carbohydrates
1 vegetable exchange = 5 grams of carbohydrates + up to 2 grams of protein
1 sweet exchange = up to 15 grams of carbohydrates + up to 5 grams of fat
1 free exchange = up to 5 grams of carbohydrates or up to 2 grams of protein or fat
All non-keto Trim Down Club recipes include exchanges (recipes posted by our Clubmembers may not, but I can help you with those if you tell me which ones interest you). |
 charrobe 4 years ago | I have joined this site as you advertised a diet geared for diabetics. I am wondering why you have listed on my menu food like fruits with 0 carbs, Ex small orange 0 carbs, as well as others. Being a diabetic and on insulin carb count is very important so how could you have left that information out. You do show carb count in your recipes but when you sent a menu, the nutrition content below would be appreciated and would certainly be appreciated by diabetics. I hope that this recommendation will be taken into consideration for future customers who are diabetics. |
