Book Reviews of Eat This Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide: The No-Diet Weight Loss SolutionBook Review: USELESS FOR LOW CARBING DIETERS & DIABETICS - NO CARB COUNTS!! Summary: 1 Stars
Where is the DIABETIC and LOW CARBOHYDRATE versions of these books for even those who just want to keep their weight down to normal. There are NO `'carb'' counts in this book whatsoever, NOT EVEN ONE!! Please continue to read all of below to understand WHY this is so important to have included, and for EVERYONE....
I was extremely disappointed and downright SHOCKED because I'm a Diabetic able to have been staying OFF of medications for many YEARS, and controlling with low carb foods instead and successfully, and was looking forward to having the CARB counts available in such an information saturated book finally....
I never even dreamed that carb counts would be eliminated at all, much less so completely in ANY nutritional food book, therefore I mistakenly didn't make SURE first that they were included and am SO angry, because otherwise I'm in LOVE with this book and the presentations, and wanted to buy ALL of them, till finding out that it's worthless to we who are carb conscious and concerned about high glucose [which EVERYONE should be], about healthy eating and also about losing or maintaining proper weight, all in addition TO proper glucose levels. It's only Calories, Sugar count [in only some products] and FATS.......
America has gotten OBESE on low fat diets through the decades, which has been ADMITTED by the experts, Doctors, etc. and still they're pushing LOW FAT consciousness instead of Low Carbohydrates and ignoring those completely? With low carbing there is NO raise in cholesterol even WITH fats, which nobody realizes without really investigating this philosophy of eating and I'm living proof of it in all my medical records throughout this past decade.....
I was going to get the Restaurant Guide first but then decided on the Supermarket Guide as a first tester instead, figuring it would cover all products and the most important book of all and it is truly wonderful for those with NO weight or glucose concerns, but how many of us are totally NORMAL. Weight gain AND Diabetes are the two fastest growing disorders even in CHILDREN now. Parents also NEED carb counts FOR their kids to set them on the right track early, to avoid these issues later in life and especially the elderly too as WELL as middle agers ....
I have no disappointments with the book except it is SO incomplete without Carb Counts, and useless for me because that is my number ONE concern, and should be everyone's....... Sugar I never eat anyway and try to stay AWAY from products with sugar in them [which everyone should], but low carbs are JUST as important, in fact even MORESO because all carbs TURN to sugar in the system AFTER ingested and digested....
I also purchased `'Hungry Girl 200" etc., and no carb counts there either. What is this world coming to......they're going backwards after all we've learned about nutrition and the importance of limited carbohydrates in our diets and only eating the good one's, salads, NON-starchy vegetables, etc, which ALSO means lower sugar in the metabolizing process if lowest carbs.....
I'm disgusted that this seems to be the trend now, with these most popular books. That is a gigantic FLAW which renders these books absolutely WORTHLESS to people like us, which is most of us, actally ALL of us in the world, if not Diabetic, then trying not to BECOME Diabetic or overweight, so please be forewarned...
I am going to write to them and request a low carb along with low sugar edition or at least ADDED to the counts in future books. Please HELP, because I'm only one person, and though I don't usually write `letters to companies, the books are THAT good to not overlook this and to see what we NEED added to them.
These books were a great idea, they just FORGOT to include the most important thing. If people ARE nutrition conscious, which is their target, then how COULD they eliminate carb counts, of COURSE nutrition conscious people include LOW CARBS in their eating philosophy and regimens. Carbs, Calories, ,Sugar, Fat, and SODIUM are the 5 MOST important things to list, I don't think salt is there either, but I wasn't focusing on that YET because of being too devastated that the carbs aren't there, so I didn't care about the rest anymore....
This book is aimed at the OLD way of thinking from the 50's and before that all we need to care about is calorie. Sugar and fat content....... It's from the dark ages. They have to totally RE-THINK, and RE-EVALUATE what they're doing or put an isolated book out FOR diabetics and other low carbers, since it's too late to add to THESE already published which are a waste for the truly INFORMED nutrition conscious. SHAME on them. I am heartbroken by this and don't want to see anyone else receive these series of books and go through the same shock.... not from even one of the books, as I did.
Summary of Eat This Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide: The No-Diet Weight Loss SolutionMuch like the waistlines of America, the aisles of your grocery store are straining under the weight of too much food. There are more than 40,000 products lining the shelves of your local supermarket, and with every product comes a whole new host of inflated label claims: ?zero trans fat!? ?Cholesterol free!? ?Good source of 9 vitamins and minerals!? The problem is these claims are just as bogus as the hyped-up foods they?re trying to sell. That?s where Eat This, Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide comes in. It?s your best weapon against the food industry?s effort to obfuscate the truth about the food it?s selling. Building on the popular approach of the Eat This, Not That! book series, co-authors Dave Zinczenko and Matt Goudling have scoured the aisles of the supermarkets of America, and in so doing they?ve discovered that two seemingly similar packages can house foods with vastly different nutritional profiles. They?ve also folded in all-new material that will help you pick the most nutrient-packed produce; the leanest, tastiest cuts of meat; and the least contaminated seafood at the fish counter. In this book you?ll also find: - 11 Secrets the Food Industry Doesn?t Want You to Know
- 20 Worst Packaged Foods in America
- Answers to The 5 Most Important Questions About Organic Food
- The Ultimate Sandwich Selector
- The Snack Matrix
- The Food Additive Glossary
- And the extended chapter, Drink This, Not That!
With tens of thousands of products crammed into the walls of the neighborhood supermarket, trying to find a reliable snack, pantry product, or frozen dinner can be a serious challenge for the time-strained consumer. The Eat This, Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide changes all of that, offering discerning shoppers everywhere a simple plan for finding the healthiest foods for them and their families. Beyond homing in on the best and worst in the world of packaged foods, the Eat This, Not That! Supermarket Survival Guide scours the aisles to help you pick the most nutrient-packed produce, the leanest, tastiest cuts of meat, exotic cheeses that double as healthy snacks, and the best contaminant-free fish the ocean has to offer.
