Book Reviews of The Complete Book of Food Counts, 7th edition
Book Review: Food Counts by Netzer
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a "must read" for everyone concerned about maintaining
good health. It's good for dieters, health buffs, young and old.
Whether you are well or ill, the book will help guide you
to health or maintain current health. The volume rates both
genetic and brand name foods. In my own experience, it is
important to read labels. Sodas can vary from 12 gms. of sugar
to 50 gms. of sugar per can. This is a huge variance with
disastrous consequences for people in a pre-diabetic state.
The book lists food characteristics accordingly:
- calories
- protein
- carbs
- fat gms.
- cholesterol
- sodium
- fiber
The average person needs between 1700-2500 calories per day
depending upon a variety of assumptions. i.e. lifestyle,
couch potato v. athlete, height/weight, man/woman , muscle mass
etc.
During the day, the difference between a pie and a small
scoop of peanut butter is significant. The pie has 30 fat
grams ; wherein, the peanut butter has 6 fat grams.
These differences have important consequences for dieters.
The book is well worth the price charged for purchasers
who intend to apply the contents dispassionately. The reader
who gave this book a poor rating based upon frozen foods
is in error. First, we should have a minimal amount of
frozen foods because fresh foods tend to preserve the
nutrient value.
