Live Younger Now!

“Being too focused on carb counting can, ironically, lead people to lose sight of eating well.  A group of 8 to 21 year-olds with type 1 diabetes and their parents reported preferring packaged to whole foods – like bulk grains or beans – because the number of carbs is clearly labeled on the packaging.  Some parents limited or even excluded fruit from their child’s diet over concerns about glucose spikes.  Researchers say a healthy diet shouldn’t be just a numbers game; food quality counts too.” -Source: Diabetes Care, December 2009-
