Carbohydrates Does all food make the blood sugar high? No, it is mainly higher carbohydrate foods that make blood sugar go up. Carbohydrate foods are also called Carbs. Foods with higher carbs are: Starches and grains such as bread, pasta or noodles, rice and cereal. Fruits and fruit juice. Soft drinks, sweet drinks, most energy drinks and sports drinks. Milk and yogurt. Sweets including ice cream, cakes, cookies, candy, desserts. Starchy vegetables such as potatoes, peas, most beans, and corn. Should I stop eating carb foods?

When cooking: Try to bake, broil or grill your foods. Try not to fry in oil. Use a non-stick skillet sprayed with a cooking spray like Pam and try not to add any oil or other fat. Cut off any fat on the meat before cooking. Remove the skin on chicken or turkey before cooking. 6 PART 5

PART 7 THE SCOOP ON USING SCOOPS Decide which carb foods you want to eat. Look up the carb foods on the list to see how much of each carb food you should have. Use the color scoop listed beside the food to serve your carb foods. (GREEN, YELLOW, BLUE, or RED) Fill the scoop as level as possible without piling the food above the scoop edge. If a food does not fit in a scoop, the list will tell you how much of the food equals one scoop. Foods listed in PINK are free foods. You can have as much free foods as you like. Try to fill up on free foods. Fast foods and restaurant foods are in a separate list. You do not need to use the scoops for the free foods or meats. 1 PART 7

PART 8 MY MEAL PLAN WITH SCOOPS Look at your scoop meal plan shown below. Eat only the number of scoops listed at each meal. This will help keep your blood sugar from being too high after eating.

Use the protein food list in Part 5. Breakfast You can have scoops from the food lists. Lunch You can have scoops from the food lists. Supper You can have scoops from the food lists. 1 PART 8

PART 9 HOW TO COUNT CARBOHYDRATES (CARBS) You can help control how many carbs you eat by counting the carbs you eat. Carbs are counted in grams. Count the grams using the following steps: 1. Count all the carb grams in each carb food before you start to eat. 2. Use the food label or look the foods up in a reference book to figure out how many carbs are in the amount of food you are about to eat. 3. Add all the carb foods in your meal. Breakfast example: 1 cup Rice Krispies cereal 22 grams 1/2 cup of milk 6 grams 1 cup strawberries 16 grams TOTAL 44 grams for breakfast 1 PART 9

Carbs On A Food Label 1. Look for the serving size at the top of the label The information on the label is for one serving size. 2. Look for Total Carbohydrates in the middle of the label Total Carbohydrate has a g for grams to the right of the number. A B Make sure you count the right amount of carbohydrate grams CRACKERS A The serving size for this product is cup B One serving (1/2 cup ) of this product contains 13 grams of carbohydrates 2 PART 9

Practice One Serving Size Use the label below: What is the serving size? How many carbohydrate grams are in each serving? If you eat one serving, you will get grams of carb. 2 servings is crackers Add grams of carb from 1 serving + grams of carb from 1 serving = grams of carb from 2 servings 1/2 serving is crackers grams of carb from 1 serving divided by 2 = grams of carb from 1/2 serving 3 PART 9

How to Calculate Carbs in a Meal You must add up the carbs from all the foods in your meal to get the total carbs for that meal. Worksheet 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes grams 1/2 cup green peas grams 1 pork chop grams 3 cups of mixed greens salad grams 3 T fat free Ranch salad dressing grams 2 Pillsbury dinner rolls grams Total for meal Total grams Use the package labels or your Calorie King book to find the carb grams for each food. Then add all together to get the total carbs for your meal. 4 PART 9

PART 9b CALCULATING A RECIPE 1. Look up the carb in each ingredient on the recipe. Use a food label or book. 2. Adjust the carbs to match the amount called for in your recipe. For example if the label says the flour has 100 grams of carb in a cup and your recipe calls for 3 cups then multiply 100 grams by 3 cups to get 300 grams for the whole recipe. 3. Write down the carb grams for each of the ingredients on the recipe so you won t have to look it up the next time. 4. Add all the carb grams together to get the total grams for the whole recipe. 5. Prepare the recipe and cut the food into the same size servings. 6. Divide the total carbohydrate grams for the whole recipe by the number of servings from step 5. If there is a decimal, round down to the next whole number. 7. If you make a casserole, soup, or other food that won t cut into servings: a. Before cooking, fill the cooking pan or pot with water using a large measuring cup. b. Count the number of cups of water it takes to fill the pan or pot. c. Write down number of cups the pan or pot holds on your recipe so you won t have to do it again. d. Divide the total carbohydrate grams in the whole recipe by the number of cups to see how many carbohydrate grams are in one cup. e. Use the one-cup measuring cup when you serve the food. 8. For later use, write on your recipe card the number of servings you like for this recipe and the grams of carbohydrate in each serving. 12 PART 9b

Example Cocoa Pudding Cake 95 g. 1 cup all-purpose flour 0 2 tablespoons oil 50 g. 1/4 cup sugar 0 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 g. 2 tablespoons cocoa powder 0 Non-stick vegetable spray 0 1/2 teaspoon salt 6 g 1/2 cup skim milk 54 1/4 cup brown sugar 4 g. 1/4 cup cocoa powder 0 1 1/4 cup hot water Makes 8 servings.
