CarbSmart will help you enjoy quality carbohydrates in a way that suits you and your diabetes.
CarbSmart covers:
- Where carbohydrates come from and which foods have them
- Why some carbohydrates can be more useful than others
- 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
- The concept of carbohydrate ‘exchanges’.
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.
This live session will be run by a trained facilitator and has been designed to be just as interactive as the face-to-face program.
Please note that this program is only suitable for adults aged 18 years and older.
Please note: This program requires a minimum of 5 participants otherwise it may be cancelled at short notice.
