Supposed cookbook for diabetics
Published by Mel , 1 year ago
Better homes and Gardens has produced some good cooking books but this one has me scratching my head. I am a type two diabetic and The doctor has advised to stay away from rice, pasta, and bread, but this cookbook has several recipes with rice, and pasta, now the bread it does suggest alternatives. Some of the recipes also call for sugar which is to be avoided if you’re A diabetic. If you’re diabetic and you buy this book I would suggest that you really think about it before using some of these recipes it could really spike your sugar levels. I was very disappointed with this book I thought it would have recipes that would be useful for a diabetic not recipes that could cause sugar spikes and using things that diabetics are to beware of.

I already own a couple of dozen diabetic cookbooks. I bought this one based on the reputation of the Better Homes and Gardens quality products. This one continues that tradition. The book is not only beautiful, but includes all the nutrition information, such as ADA exchanges, Joslin exchanges, etc., that anyone could want. Many of the recipes I've found are enjoyed by the whole family...including the fussy eaters and those who insist on flavorful food. This book shows you how to remove fat and and calories and still retain the fabulous flavor in food. Excellent book.

This cookbook features meals from salads to desserts as well as snacks and special treats for better health for everyone. With recipes from Better Homes & Gardens Diabetic Cookbook, meals can be made considering the needs of a diabetic without 'singling-out' that person with an unusual plate of food. These are delicious meals with the food exchange system used (a list is at the back of the book for making following meal plans easier). Even attractive garnishes are suggested so these recipes can be used to appeal to more than just the palate. Normal ingredients in the pantry or easily purchased at the local grocery store make these meals do-able.This is a practical purchase for any home and a must-have for those with diabetes.

I was in a panic having just learned the importance of following a diabetic diet plan. It is crucial to maintaining good health and preventing further problems for diabetics. The diet plan (which you need to get from a dietician in order to use this book effectively) was prescribed but we couldn't envision following it on a day to day basis. This book really helped us get started right away. The use of pictures and lists simplifies what at first seemed like a maze. I highly recommend it if you (have already received your diabetic diet plan and) feel you'd like a little hand holding during your learning process... and then some
