AdvantEdge Carb Control Ready to Drink Review

AdvantEdge Carb Control Ready to Drink
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

Okay, here are the stats on EAS AdvantEDGE chocolate fudge carb control ready-to-drink shake: 100 calories for 11 fluid ounces, which contain 15 grams of protein and 4 total carbs. Minus 2 of fiber would be about 2 impact carbs, though the label says 1. So, either 1 or 2, depending on how you calculate it. I did say 100 calories, right?
This is my fave of the low-carb, high-protein drinks. Why? Cause it tastes like YooHoo and I grew up as a kid loving a chilled bottle of YooHoo. If that's a flavor that works for you--a sort of sweet and watery version of chocolate milk--then this might be a fine addition to your protein snack roster.
Notice I say snack. I don't think 100 calories makes for a satisfying meal. This drink doesn't carry the satisfaction punch of the gross-textured SlimFast Optima, and it doesn't carry the filling power of an Atkins shake (Eww, didn't like). But EAS Chocolate Fudge AdvantEDGE tastes good (to me), and it's low enough in calories that it's a good between meal snack to keep the blood sugar steady and the binge attacks at bay.
So, for a nice, cool, sweet, YooHoo-ey snack, here ya go. But if you are going to use it for meal-replacement, add something to it, a garden salad, some fruit and a bit of low-fat or fat-free cheese to get you up closer to a proper meal calorie range.
Oh, and shake VERY VERY VERY WELL, or you'll end up with some gross choco-sludge at the bottom of your can. That's not a good thing.
Thumbs up!

These bars are somewhat better than other low-carb bars: Crunchy texture is nice and taste is good. Unfortunately they are loaded with 19 grams of poop-inducing Maltitol, not the friendlier Erythritol. Still I enjoy them - mainly in the privacy of my small office LOL

Carba-Nada Low Carb Egg Fettuccine Pasta 10 oz. bag Review

Carba-Nada Low Carb Egg Fettuccine Pasta 10 oz. bag
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These noodles are the best low carb noodles I have ever eaten. Everytime my grocery store get a shipment, I go and buy at least a couple of bags. They cook in minutes and they absorb the flavor of whatever you add them to. I made chicken alfredo,and tuna noodle casserole. Everything I have tried with these, has been a hit. I even use them for non low carbers and they can't tell the difference. Try for yourself. They are absolutely wonderful.

NOT FOR INDUCTION OR ONGOING WEIGHT LOSS PHASES OF THE ATKINS DIET. Carba-Nada Pasta is a great tasting reduced carb pasta and not an ultra low carb pasta.A reduced-carb pasta with wonderful taste and texture! To top it off, because Al Dente pasta cooks in just 3 minutes, it has a remarkably low glycemic index, slowing the rate at which it is digested. Healthy and all-natural. Since 1981, Al Dente's reputation has been based on its famous ""tender but firm"" texture that tastes just like home made. Their Carba-Nada line includes Basil Fettuccine, Roasted Garlic Fettuccine, Lemon Pepper Fettuccine and Egg Fettuccine. By substituting wheat gluten, fiber, and high-protein soy flour for some of the semolina of normal pasta, Al Dente has succeeded in bringing the total carb count down to 18 net grams per serving. Al Dente has succeeded in making a great tasting, low-carb pasta when others have failed. Because Al Dente is one of the few pasta companies in the country to sheet rather than extrude their dough, they are able to achieve a texture that is more similar to traditional fresh egg pasta. This method, along with the great, all-natural flavors, give a real taste treat to the millions of people who do not want to give up pasta even though they are on low-carb diets. Al Dente Pasta Company has found a wonderful balance - a great tasting pasta with a lower carb count (18g net carbs per serving) vs. regular pasta (45g or more per serving). Now we know 18g Net Carbs is not right for everyone but when you are close to your goal or want to have that occasional pasta treat, Carba-Nada will satisfy you. Nutrition Facts: Serving Size 1 1/2 cups - 2 oz. dry (56g), Servings Per Container 5, Total Calories 140, Calories From Fat 10, Total Fat 1g, Saturated Fat 0g, Trans Fat 0g, Cholesterol 10mg, Sodium 80mg, Total Carb 24g, Dietary Fiber 6g, Sugars 0g, Protein 12g. *Net Carbs = 18g per serving. Ingredients: Semolina, wheat gluten, malto-dextrin (fiber), soy flour, whole eggs.

Yes To Cookies Cocoa-licious (Gluten Free, Sugar Free, High Fiber, Low Carb, All Natural, Diet) Cookie Mix Review

Yes To Cookies Cocoa-licious (Gluten Free, Sugar Free, High Fiber, Low Carb, All Natural, Diet) Cookie Mix
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
My husband is extremely sensitive to refined carbohydrates. When he starts eating them (chips, regular cookies, etc.), he cannot stop.
When we learned about Yes to Cookies!, he was concerned that eating them would kick off a binge. Nothing like that happened. He now can enjoy a cookie or two for dessert without having cravings. And, the cookies are delicious. They taste as good as any carbohydrate-laden cookie. I like them, too!
We've had our last batch for over a week and all he has to do is to put it into the microwave for a few seconds and the cookies return to near the freshness of when they were pulled out of the oven.
We now can take our cookie jar out of mothballs and return it to the counter! Thank you, Yes to Cookies people. You've made a difference in our lives.
Sincerely, Melissa Roth
