The ACC reports most foods in CUP measurements so you quickly
learn identifiable portions visually. Most other sources, do not
provide "Active" carbohydrate amounts, and measurements are
in ounces or grams requiring a scale. See sample page below:

The American public is
finally coming to realize that carbohydrate consumption must be curbed in order to achieve
lasting fat loss and optimal health. But virtually everyone is miscalculating carbohydrate
intake by heeding the "total carb" representations on package labels, rather
than "active carb." This handy booklet explains the significance of "active
carbs," and provides hundreds of listings of the active carb content of foods.
| "Much more important than the popular
"glycemic index" is how many grams of insulin-generating carbohydrate a food
contains. The Extique Active Carb Counter provides this critical information."
Rob Faigin, author, Natural

"Thank you for the Active Carb Counter. Now I
don't have to lug around a 3 pound book and wade through pages of processed foods to
find the foods I want to eat. What a joy."
