Product Description
At last! This special cookbook puts flavor and choice back on the menu for people with diabetes and their families
Betty Crocker, America's most trusted friend in the kitchen, has teamed up with the International Diabetes Center (IDC)--one of the leading medical centers--to create an indispensable source of easy-to-make recipes and up-to-the-minute food and nutrition information for the growing numbers of people who have diabetes, more than 15 million of them.
Here is the first cookbook to include recipes featuring Carbohydrate Choices--the new, simplified approach to meal planning recommended by the American Diabetes Association. For people who find diet exchanges too hard, too limiting or too much work, this new method is a real breakthrough. Each of the book's 140 recipes shows the number of Carbohydrate Choices per serving, so that planning the rest of the meal is easy. From Old-Time Beef and Vegetable Stew to Creamy Vanilla-Caramel Cheesecake, the recipes are made with everyday ingredients, including sugar. No food groups or ingredients are left out, so there's no need for anyone to feel deprived or restricted to a special diet. Food exchanges are also included, making it easy for those who still count calories.
Betty Crocker's Diabetes Cookbook is also packed with expert medical and nutrition tips from Dr. Richard Bergenstal, an endocrinologist and diabetes doctor, and two registered nurses--invaluable for the newly diagnosed as well as for those who have been coping with diabetes for years. Throughout the book, real-life advice from people who have diabetes offers inspiration and great ideas on dealing with this chronic disease. When it comes to eating and living with diabetes, people need guidance and advice they can trust.

 DIABETES COOKBOOK June 17, 2010
Helene A. Madsen (Oregon)
JUST RECIEVED THIS BOOK YESTERDAY BUT WHAT I HAVE ALREADY READ I AM REALLY GLAD THAT I PURCHASED THIS. IT REALLY IS A KEEPER. AM REALLY GLAD I DECIDED ON THIS ONE. THE INFO IS SO EASY TO FOLLOW.
Terrific for diabetics and everybody else! June 13, 2010

My husband was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes several years ago, and I have been struggling to come up with meal plans that we can both enjoy ever since. Most diabetic cookbooks have recipes that are mediocre at best - and wretched at worst. Not so with this little gem! We recieved this as a gift - and we have cooked at least half of the recipes in the book - and have not hit a bad one yet. In fact, it has rapidly become our "go to" cookbook because the recipes are tasty, are generally quick to prepare (we both work so this attribute is critical), and utilize stuff we generally have in the pantry - not many "exotic" ingredients. The meals are seasoned wonderfully - and we BOTH enjoy them. Check it out - you won't be disappointed! We love to cook - and were a little suspect when we saw the "Betty Crocker" label - assuming it would be full of "hamburger casserole - type" recipes - but it's not!

Jean Clark (Dallas,TX)
This is a wonderful book and even if I don't use the recipes word for word, it helps me convert/modify the recipes I use to cook meals when my mother who has Diabetes comes to visit.
Wonderful item.
Helped my Dad lose some pounds March 14, 2010
Carl C. White (Fort Smith, AR)
I bought this cookbook to help my father, who is a pre-diabetic, lose some extra pounds. My mother has been cooking from it pretty regularily and he has already lost over 20 pounds. They say the meals are pretty easy to prepare and taste pretty good.

Joseph S. Sanders
This is a great cookbook for any one with diabetes or any one who has to prepare meals for some one who does. The book was in excellent condition and shipping was speedy.
