Nearly 21 million Americans already have diabetes, and at least 54 million adults over the age of 20 are at risk. Fortunately, there is good news: Studies have shown that people with pre-diabetes who lose weight and increase their physical activity can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes—and even return their blood glucose levels to normal. This outstanding cookbook draws on the latest science to make losing weight and getting blood sugar under control easier than ever before. Diabetes Diet Cookbook features: -a new approach to controlling blood sugar naturally—by eating up to 50 grams of fiber a day (nearly twice the USDA’s recommended daily intake) -easy menu plans that lower daily carb intake to target abdominal fat, a leading risk for the heart disease that commonly accompanies diabetes -more than 200 great-tasting dishes—from Better-for-You Burritos and Skinny Monte Cristos to fabulous special-occasion desserts—that will satisfy the whole family and completely eliminate the need for separate meals -hundreds of practical tips for living well with diabetes Designed to bring about steady, permanent weight loss—up to 2 pounds a week until one’s goal weight is reached—and filled with inspirational, real-life success stories that illustrate Prevention’s trusted advice in action, this is an indispensable book for anyone who has, or is at risk of developing, diabetes.
Customer Reviews:
The Yummiest Food ImaginableAugust 28, 2008 You don't have to be diabetic to get great things out of this cookbook. I myself am not diabetic but like this book because it is full of recipes that are so delicious and yet so cardio friendly. Your inner health nut and your inner gourmet can both be satisfied! I've been working my way through the wonderful recipes and wowing my friends with the results. My fiance, who is generally the least cardio-conscious eater imaginable, actually asks me when I'm going to cook something out of this book because the dishes are so fabulous. The author makes wonderful use of lots of different spices so you don't miss the salt. I especially recommend the "Cinnamon-Rubbed Pork Loin with Roasted Apples & Onions".
Great book with good recipes and information.August 19, 2008 As a diabetic I wanted a cookbook that would help me increase not only a better eating plan, but help me add more fiber. I have seen a significant inporvement in my numbers as I have made fiber rich glycemic choices and added these recipes.
But this book is also more than a cookbook as I was surprised to find it also has much information and inpiration for dealing with diabetes.
