How do you all carb count your baked beans. Dafne tells me that 200g has 10g carbs due to the beans being a slow release carb but the back of the tin says 30g carbs.
This is my first time having beans since doing the course but beforehand I went with the 30g carbs and don't think I'd any hypos?

At the dafne course we were advised as the beans are low gi it's the sauce we are counting. The dafne book advises 1cp (10g carbs) per 200g beans. The tin says 30g (3cps) for 200g. Although I learned so much at the course and it has brought me better control, this particular piece of advice I won't be following again with a spike post lunchAs most baked beans tins are loaded with added sugar how can they be low-GI unless you have the reduced sugar ones.
So instead of trusting my instinct I went with the dafne professionals. 6.2 pre lunch 14 now 1 hour post lunch. I'm so cross
Its the beans that are low Gi but the sauce is the added sugar.As most baked beans tins are loaded with added sugar how can they be low-GI unless you have the reduced sugar ones.
