Marlene Koch is back with another great article in the American Diabetes Wholesale Newsletter! As you probably know, carbohydrates have gotten a bad reputation in the age of Atkins and South Beach, but Marlene discusses how some of the information out there is not accurate. In fact, carbohydrates are an important part of a nutritious, balanced diet, so sort the carb myths from the carb facts in the article, “Truth About Carbohydrates.”

Marlene also provided a great recipe for you to try – the Chicken Caesar Wrap! It’s a great balanced mix of fat, calories and carbohydrates – and tastes fantastic too!

This week’s American Diabetes Wholesale Newsletter features an article just in time for American Podiatric Medical Association’s Foot Awareness Month this April.

This edition of the American Diabetes Wholesale Newsletter features an informative article by Marci Sloane titled “Food Label Reading Made Easy.” In the article, Marci helps make sense of the myriad of information on food nutrition labels that can often leave a person perplexed. It seems like the labels as well as the expert opinions and studies change every few months, and it can be difficult to keep up with all of these changes when one is at the supermarket. If you need tips on how to calculate the actual calories from fat (not just the grams) or the what allows a food to be labeled “low fat.”
