Nutrients Information

[valeried]

As you all know this is very important to all celiac's. However there are many celiac's who also are diabetic, and the nutrient information is vital in the dose of insuln given...I'm sure your site can help with this matter. I have gotten some wonderful recepies from this site, but I'm sure you could also supply this information to us as well. It would make it alot easier to count carbs. and so on. I know for a fact that there have been at least 6 more children with diabeates who have been recently found to be celiac as well. Although I use Bette Hagmans books for everything...because of her nutrients listing, I still like to find other recepies to widen the range of delights I can offer my daughter. Please consider adding this to your posted recepies. Valerie

Hi Valeried-

I appreciate your interest in nutrition values...however, most of the recipes that I posted on this site are from my own creativity or modified from family recipes. I could possibly figure out calories, but other than that - there is no way for most people to get this info on carbs, etc. The cookbooks are your best option for that since they hire nutritionists to calculate out all the carbs, prot, and fat content.

Many recipes from the newspaper and some online recipe sites will give nutrition info, however, they won't be accurate if you modify them for gluten-free diets.
