- Recommended amounts of carbohydrates as per the Australian Dietary Guidelines
- What the glycaemic index (GI) means and how to use it to choose quality carbohydrates

By the end of this program, you will have the confidence to include carbohydrates into your diet, without missing out on the foods you enjoy.
