Published in association with the British Diabetic Association.
Diabetes sufferers need to make sure that their diet is well balanced – eating the right foods at regular intervals helps to manage the condition.
This is the perfect book for quick, easy, family cooking. Each recipe serves 4 people.
An introduction will give practical advice to all those living with diabetes. Healthy eating checklists will encourage people to make the best food choices. The recipes are given simple step methods and with each one you are given side dishes and puddings which will give you a balanced meal in fats, fibre and carbohydrates to help you manage your diabetes.
The latest guidelines from the BDA have been used. They are much less restrictive and close to ordinary World Organisation healthy eating guidelines – with an emphasis on variety of nutritionally healthy foods. Although the meals have all been assessed for saturated fats, carbohydrates, non-starch polysaccharides and calories (energy), the reader won’t have to count figures obsessively as they were encouraged to do in the past. With regard to the USA, and other world territories the nutritional principles are broadly the same but the USA system does tend to encourage counting up figures for different nutrients. However, all the calculations have been done and verified which is much easier for the diabetic person. Our main selling point is that the book has been written so the whole family can eat delicious, healthy, balanced meals.
