Need to sort out my mother's diet. She has pretty traditional tastes (from the pre-curry era).

Sorry - but I really am finding this response confusing. You state that wholemeal bread is high glycaemic but it comes up under low GI foods if I do a search on that - and I thought it was white breads that were the culprit.

Hi Gambit62

This is a superb book for people with diabetes. It's called Carbs & Cals. It's a picture dictionary of 1000's of different foods and beverages that are broken down into portion sizes and allocated a carbohydrate and calorie amount. There is an iPhone and smart phone app too, which I use. The authors won a Quality in Care award for both last year.

Sorry but I am having problems using the link - to do with the site - do I have to join in order to see this material? get a log in coming up and obscuring the page - and there doesn't seem to be anyway of dismissing this area
