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.
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).
