The calorie count of more than 21,000 foods and drinks, including those from High Street chains Burger King, Subway, Caffe Nero, JD Wetherspoon and Starbucks, are included in a new essential bible aimed at everyone looking to maintain a healthy body weight.

The Calorie, Carb and Fat Bible 2006, launched today, is the most comprehensive calorie count listing in the UK and has been produced by highly respected dietician Juliette Kellow and Rebecca Walton of diet and fitness information site dietandfitnessresources.co.uk.

As well as featuring 432 pages of calorie listings of everything from Angel Delight to Starbucks Frappuccino to Yule Logs, all measured per 100g and by serving size, the new book includes a body mass index, a food diary sheet and pages of charts, tables and useful advice on losing weight and staying healthy.

Rebecca Walton said: “This is the fourth year we have produced the Calorie, Carb and Fat Bible and this year we feature more foods and drinks than ever before.

“Everything from the drink Archers to yams are included, as well as virtually all the ready meals from the leading supermarkets and the latest menus from High Street chains including KFC, Pret A Manger and Costa.

“The book is an essential resource for everyone interested in maintaining a healthy weight and eating the right foods.”
