Admin: Re: Delicious Sugarless Cookies

[Guest guest]

Including nutritional data is quite necessary if recipes are going to be posted

on this list. As has been mentioned, just because something is labeled as so

called " sugar free, " does not mean it is an appropriate recipe for diabetics, or

for this list.

As diabetics, we need to eat healthy, which is much more than simply avoiding or

limiting foods containing refined sugar and high carbs. Keep these points in

mind for future recipe postings.

Thanks.

Delicious Sugarless Cookies

The banana and raisins are full of carbs to make the cookies sweet. They

also contain the kind of carbs that raise blood glucose levels faster and

higher then other forms as listed in the glycemic index and load lists.

Sugar free here only means it does not use table sugar, in fact they are

full of sugars . This is another one that comes from an era where table

sugar control was emphasized, no longer as it is the total carb content not

table sugar alone that must be controlled by a diabetic.

Can we consider a rule that all recipes must at a minimum contain nutrition

information for the benefit of those who are not aware of how carb laden

many common foods are? As in this example many older " diabetic " recipes can

be very misleading in this respect.
