BOOKS ON DIABETIC COOKING
_____________________________________________________
When someone has diabetes, it means that their blood sugar levels
have a tendency to be very high and must be controlled through diet and sometimes medication. Diabetes is a serious
disease which can lead to death if not cared for properly. One thing that diabetics must do is adopt a specialized
diet that is designed to keep blood sugar levels at a steady normal level.
Learning about diabetes menu planning and cooking become very important and there are
a number of sources for solid information such as the diabetes association and personal physicians. There are also
several books on the market about this subject. This article will take a look at a couple of popular books on
diabetic cooking.
The Diabetes Diet: Dr. Bernstein's Low Carbohydrate
Solution
Dr. Bernstein is an authority on diabetes and he has written a book that is packed
with diabetes information and comes complete with a menu planner and 100 delicious recipes. His approach emphasizes
the importance of controlling diabetes through low carb eating. The first edition of this book was released in 1997
and has sold over 120,000 copies. The goal of the book is to help diabetics enjoy the pleasure of eating delectable
meals while controlling the blood sugar by preventing swings through the practice of a low carb diet.
Atkins Diabetes Revolution: The Groundbreaking Approach to Preventing and Controlling
Type 2 Diabetes
This book was written by two colleagues of the low carb diet guru Dr.
Atkins. Mary Vernon and Jacqueline Eberstein put together this diabetes cooking book which focuses on a low
carbohydrate diet which allows the eating of fats. This book contains important information for diabetics
concerning how eating a low carb diet can help them to alleviate the symptoms of their disease and keep their blood
sugar from swinging up and down based upon what they eat. This diet allows for hearty eating and helps to promote
general good health and can also be used to prevent diabetes from developing in the first place.
Important work has been done in the past couple of decades regarding the effects of
low carb eating and diabetes. A person with diabetes has to be very careful with their diet so it is highly
recommended to consult with a doctor before starting on any type of eating regime to make sure it will be safe and
effective. Even if one is taking medication to control diabetes, it is still necessary to eat properly to keep
blood sugar levels on an even keel. The reward of eating properly and keeping blood sugar levels down will be worth
it since it will help to ward off many of the severe conditions that can develop along with advanced diabetes such
as blindness and loss of circulation in the extremeties.
