Diabetic Diet & Blood Gluecose

Providing You with the Best Diabetic Info Around

Does anybody have a copy of the Diabetic Diet?

Or do you know where I can get a free copy on line?

I just had an update at my doctors with the diabetic counselor she gave me one but she said to go on line to the mayo clinic that theirs is even better

How does the Diabetic Diet exchange values compare to the Weight Watchers exchange values found in menus?


as long as your post prandial sugars (sugar values two hours after the meal) remain less than 140-150, it does not matter if you observe a true diabetic exchange diet or a weight watchers diet, write to me if you want to discuss this in detail, good luck

Is it safe for someone whom does not have Diabetes to eat a Diabetic Diet?

My husband has been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and High Cholesterol. In supporting his "new" Diabetic diet, I have opted to be on a Diabetic Diet with him. Also, my daughter is 10, and she is very thin, I was having her do this diet as well, but allow her to eat "junk" food on occasion. Is it nutritionally safe for my child to do a No Sugar/Low Fat diet as well?

A Diabetic Diet is actually a healthy diet, but distributed in a way to allow your body to process nutrients more efficiently. Diabetics are not necessarily barred from particular food products, but must integrate them in their dietary schedule. Diabetes educators work to assist individual diabetics to work their favourite foods into a diet for them. Much of this is focused on portions, eating smaller meals over longer periods of time and maintaining glucose counts.

Diabetic Diet?

Does anyone have any good websites that will help me with a diabetic diet? I don’t have diabetes but my doctor has put me on it to help prevent me from getting it. If you have some good recipes that I can use for myself and my family it will be greatly appreciated. Also, I wouldn’t mind on some tips or advice to help me on this diet.

*Please don’t give me any cruel comments or be a smart a**!
