Cooking for Diabetics (Food & drink)

Cooking for Diabetics (Food & drink) 



From Publishers Weekly

The Maynards ( The American Country Inn and Bread & Breakfast Cookbook ), registered nurses and owners of a bakery specializing in food for diabetics, and Duncan ( Living with Diabetes ), associate professor at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, don't always practice what they preach. Though they advance sensible advice about the hazards, for diabetics, of eating restaurant fare and the importance of reading food labels, and though they offer diabetic food exchange lists and nutritional analyses, many of these 315 recipes are unappealing or unrealistic. "Classic sugar-free fruitcake" calls for rum, when many diabetics are not permitted alcohol. The authors recommend the sugar substitute aspartame, though it is harmful to people with the metabolic disorder phenylketonuria (PKU) and frequently causes headaches in others. Some recipes have high sodium counts (a problem due in part to the authors' reliance on prepared foods); others employ reasonable amounts. And while some require low-fat versions of foods, others do not--an inconsistency at odds with the needs of overweight diabetics. Illustrations.

Mr. Food Every Day's a Holiday Diabetic Cooking

Mr. Food Every Day's a Holiday Diabetic Cooking



Whip up any of more than 145 all-new easy, speedy, festive, fun recipes that let you celebrate every day like it's a holiday. Now recipes that are healthy, nutritious, and incredibly delicious can fit into your every day meal plan -- even if you only ate them on holidays before!

From Library Journal

The latest book from the popular and prolific Ginsburg, who has some 30 or so Mr. Foods cookbooks to his credit, is a follow-up to Mr. Food's Quick & Easy Diabetic Cooking. Although he includes a list of holidays in his introductory material, the recipes are organized by courses of a meal rather than particular celebrations. However, sidebars by Ginsburg and by Nicole Johnson-Miss America 1999 and an ADA spokesperson-tie many of the dishes to specific holidays. The recipes are short and simple, as always, and each includes nutrition information and diabetic exchanges. Sure to be in demand.

Juicing for Life: A Guide to the Benefits of Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Juicing

Juicing for Life: A Guide to the Benefits of Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Juicing



Eating fresh fruits and vegetables can boost your energy level, supercharge your immune system and maximise your body's healing power. Convenient and inexpensive, juicing allows you to obtain the most concentrated form of nutrition available from whole foods. This A-Z guide shows you how to use nature's bounty in the prevention and treatment of our most common health disorders. It gives complete nutritional programmes for over 75 health problems, telling you which fruits and vegetables have been shown to be effective in combating specific illnesses and why. Along with hundreds of delicious recipes, this book provides dietary guidelines and diet plans to follow in conjunction with your juicing regimen.

Benefits of fresh fruits and vegetables Juicing
While Calbom and Keane promise no quick fix for various ailments, their simple-to-prepare natural "potions" fit the contemporary demand for instant--and healthful--gratification. Arranged alphabetically by ills (which range from acne to age spots to chronic fatigue syndrome, varicose veins and water retention), juice "cures" are touted here as "vitamin and mineral cocktails" that can detoxify the body and supplement the diet. Many of the same juice recipes work on sundry and specific ills; recipes for potassium broth, "very veggie" cocktail, "Cherie's cleansing cocktail," "ginger hopper," "garlic express" and "chlorophyll cocktail" are among the repeated panaceas. At the very least, juicing raw produce is a relatively direct means of introducing the vegetables recommended by nutritionists into daily habits. So while some will pigeonhole Juicing as just another New Age treatise, others--convinced of the place of the occasional juice fast in the diet--will find the volume fascinating, and well worth the investment in a juicer and organic produce.
