Bowls that fit our diabetes-friendly guideline today

This list comes from today's menu. A bowl is listed only while its numbers fit the guideline below, so it can change when the menu or the guideline changes.

Questions

Can a diabetic eat egg salad?

Boiled egg has very little carbohydrate, so an egg-based bowl can have low net carbs. The whole bowl matters, though: check its net carbs, sugar and glycemic load on its page, and whether it fits our diabetes-friendly guideline. Whether it is right for you is a question for your doctor or dietitian.

What is glycemic load?

Glycemic load estimates how much a portion of food raises blood sugar, by combining the food's glycemic index with the carbohydrate in the portion. We work it out for each bowl from its ingredients. If an ingredient has no glycemic index yet, the bowl page says the figure is not available.

What are net carbs?

Net carbs are carbohydrates minus fibre. Each bowl page shows them next to the carbohydrate figure.
