Book Description
Delicious food for people with diabetes. Because diabetes affects an estimated 16 million people in the US, half of whom are undiagnosed, there has never been a greater need for authoritative information on the condition. Comprehensive and practical, the Diabetes Cookbook helps people with diabetes take control of their condition and live life to the full. Understanding Diabetes: The American Diabetes Association -- the nation's leading health organization supporting diabetes research -- joins Dorling Kindersley in publishing the Diabetes Cookbook. Describing the two main types of diabetes and explaining the treatment and management of the condition, the book shows how to plan menus to achieve a well--balanced diet and stable blood--glucose levels, and gives advice on interpreting nutritional guidelines and adapting standard recipes. Stylish Food: From Thai Shrimp and Vegetable Curry to Coriander--crusted Lamb Steaks to Fruit and Amoretti Trifle, over 100 beautifully illustrated recipes demonstrate that a diet for those with diabetes need be anything but dull. Each carefully devised recipe is accompanied by a full nutritional analysis. There are also tips on individual foods, alternative ingredients, and serving ideas. Menus To Suit Everyone: The Diabetes Cookbook shows how easy it is to plan menus that are appropriate to people with diabetes and that also appeal to family and friends. There are recipes for all occasions, including buffet lunches, children's snacks, vegetarian suppers, and three--course dinner parties.Customer Reviews:

THE TRUTH ABOUT SUGAR.......2000-02-23
Since 1994 dietitians and educators working with people with diabetes have been trying to get the truth out about sucrose (sugar). Sugar is not a forbidden food for people with diabetes.
Scientific evidence from more than a dozen studies has shown that the use of sugar does impair blood glucose control in people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Sugar and foods containing sugar must be substituted for other carbohydrates, gram for gram, and not simply added to the diabetes meal plan. In making such substitutions, the nutrient content of concentrated sweets and sucrose-containing foods, as well as the presence of other nutrients frequently ingested with sucrose, such as fat, must be considered.
The bottom line for people with diabetes is to check the total carbohydrate in a recipe or on a food label and work that into their diabetes meal plan. Because there are individual variations in blood glucose response, self-monitoring is an important part of diabetes control.
