Diabetes now affects over one million people in the UK and the number is growing every day amongst all age groups and all racial groups. It is now generally recognized that, in the main, we are what we eat and that the best food for diabetics is to be found in the high-fibre, low-fat, low-sugar diet that today's nutritionalists are recommending for everyone. This cookbook contains 200 tasty recipes that provide healthy, high energy meals and is written by Stella Bowling, the British Diabetic Association's Head of Diet Information Service. It is fully endorsed by, and published in association with, the BDA. Each recipe is accompanied by nutritional analysis listing calories per serving, fat protein and carbohydrate content.

Customer Reviews

diabetes cook book
Like Ann Burrows I too have found this an excellent book. It is simple to read, explains Diabetes easily, and the menu's are easy to follow. I fully recommend this book to anyone who has a diabetic problem that will help control their condition.

Really good recipies
I wish Stella had published more books. A good range of everyday dinners, quick and easy meals and some fantastic baking - including mincemeat and christmas cake. I've only found one recipe so far we didn't like.

We got the book just after diagnosis and found it very tasty - non diabetic friends enjoy the cakes and meals too without commenting on the reduced sugar and fat etc.

At Long Last - Food I Can Eat
This book is really good. It offers a wide range of recipes which all the family can eat as well as plenty of good ideas for entertaining. Carbohydrate values are provided for different portion sizes, so its easy to calculate the amount you are eating per meal. Brilliant.
