Far from being boring, the variety of food available to people with diabetes can be wide-ranging. Revised and updated, this book offers a collection of recipes, ranging from soups and snacks, stir fries and risottos, to desserts and cakes, providing a healthy-eating plan suitable for everyone, not just those with diabetes. In addition, detailed, easy-to-understand information on diabetes and nutrition is provided, including: concise information on managing diabetes through diet; an explanation of food labelling; sample meal plans; advice on managing disorders and special needs; tips for modifyining recipes; detailed food value lists; vegetarian recipes; and a summary of nutritional data for each recipe.
