I purchased this book for my mother who has heart disease and is on a low-sodium, low-fat diet. She was very frustrated trying to count her daily sodium intake and was having difficulty finding sodium levels on many foods. This book has been very helpful for her and makes it much easier to stick to her diet.

The Calorie Counter: 4th Edition Review

The Calorie Counter: 4th Edition
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this book because I was looking for a quick reference calorie guide. I recently started keeping a food journal and needed something I could carry around in my purse. The book is useless, it only includes calorie counts for prepackaged food. Why would I want that? Prepackaged food already has the calorie counts on the packages. I would use the Calorie King book. Infinitely better and more compact.

I think this is a very good book for people who have never learned anything at all about calories. It is definitely a good starting point but doesn't share any information that we don't hear every single day about weight loss.

Restaurant Calorie Counter For Dummies (For Dummies (Health & Fitness)) Review

Restaurant Calorie Counter For Dummies (For Dummies (Health and Fitness))
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This book is an excellent compilation of nutritional information for food from almost every mainstream restaurant.
More than just calories, there is listing of fat, salt, etc.
The information can be used to infer the calorie count of dishes from restaurants that aren't listed. For example, you can look up a burger from Island's and use it to estimate the calorie count of similar burger at a local burger restaurant.
The book is small but thick and that makes it a bit heavy to take with you when you go out to eat. If you are meticulous about what you eat and want to plan ahead before you go to the restaurants, this is a great book to have in your collection.

The Ultimate Calorie Counter Review

The Ultimate Calorie Counter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am very disappointed with this book. I wanted a book to help me keep track of my daily intake of calories. Not pages and pages full of the author's opinions and tips on weight loss. A lot of the items listed are commercial food that by law have to carry nutrition info anyway. I am prefectly capable of reading a nutrition lable for calories, I don't need the added step of finding it in this book, which doesn't have a very good order of listing items in my opinion. Instead I recommend "The Doctors Pocket Calorie, Fat & Carbohydrate Counter: 2002 Edition, Plus 101 Fast Food Chains and Restaurants" and "The Complete and Up-to-Date Fat Book: A Guide to the Fat, Calories and Fat Percentages in Your Food" - both of which are available from amazon.

This book is mistitled, it should be "Calorie Counter for Fast Foods and Restaurants". It's great for that, but it's not a general calorie counter book. There are 400 pages for restaurant items, and 13 pages of general food calorie information.
