This is a comprehensive listing of both natural foods i.e. flour, apple, string beans and manufactured foods i.e. canned chili, frozen dinners which provides not only calories but carbohydrates, fat, protein, cholesterol, sodium and fiber, You can find it all in this book and keep track of exactly what you are eating. It is an invaluable resource.

This book has all the calories listed in alphabetical order, much better than categories. It's easy to find what you want and not frustrating.
Got here in good shape and faster than a speeding bullet. Thanks

My father had congestive heart failure last year and he is a diabetic. Not only does he have to watch his salt intake, water intake and sugar, he is trying to lose weight as well. He is now able to chart his calories, sodium, fat and so much more with this book. There are several fast food restaurants in here if you have to eat on the go. A wonderful book that is easy to use. I used to have the 4th edition and loved it so I upgraded to the most recent edition and I am thrilled. No complaints, I highly recommend this book.
