Staying Healthy with Diabetes -- Nutrition & Meal Planning

JUST PUBLISHED!

We are pleased to announce the publication of a book that will tell you everything that is important about nutrition and meal planning for those with diabetes.  Written by well-known Joslin nutritionist Amy Campbell and the staff of Joslin Diabetes Center, this book offers guidance and tips on what a meal plan should look like; carb counting; tips for cooking and baking; meal replacements and much more.

Managing your diabetes is all about making choices -- and choosing what foods you will eat is one of the most important choices.  Staying Healthy with Diabetes -- Nutrition & Meal Planning  will help you understand which foods you are currently eating may help keep your blood glucose levels as close to your target range as possible.  It will explain which foods you may need to eat more of -- or perhaps less of if they are negatively affecting your body weight, blood cholesterol or blood glucose levels.  You'll also find discussion of the glycemic index, eating out, alcohol, vitamins, and grocery shopping tips, as well as Joslin's Food Lists -- 32 pages which provide serving sizes (each containing 15 grams of carb) for carbs (breads, cereals, vegetables, cookies, crackers, fruit, favorite breakfast items and deserts);  proteins (meats, cheeses, eggs); fats; "free" foods; combination foods; fast foods and vegetarian foods. This book was developed and written by Joslin Diabetes Center and supported in part by an unrestricted educational grant from Novartis Nutrition Corporation.
