Introducing the American Diabetes Associations first all-in-one food book, a combination of nutrition guideline, menu planner, and cookbook. Readers will learn how to shop, plan nutritious meals, and cook low-fat and healthy foods. The Diabetes Food and Nutrition Bible is divided into three sections: Meal Planning, Healthy Shopping (for fruits, vegetables, protein, etc.), and Recipes (using the ingredients from the previous section). Helpful sidebars throughout the text will offer helpful cooking and nutrition tips.


When you were diagnosed with diabetes, did you get advice to avoid sugar and lose weight with no further guidance? Were you ever given a preprinted meal plan prescribing a certain number of calories a day, but you didnt know what to do next? This book will help you fill in the blanks by supplying you with important information about eating healthier and controlling your diabetes.
