Review

This newly revised, updated fourth edition of a classic packs in over 200 recipes low in salt, sugar and fat, following the latest guidelines of the American Diabetes Association and including plenty of information on nutrition. This is not sugar-free cooking: many dessert dishes call for real sugar rather than substitutes. But it does outline the basic principles of diabetic exchange cooking. -- Midwest Book Review

From the Back Cover

"A welcome addition to the kitchen library of anyone interested in healthy eating."--Journal of the American Dietetic Association

More than 250,000 copies sold and better than ever!

Having diabetes doesn't mean having to say good-bye to tasty meals and hello to a lifetime of eating bland food. The New Diabetic Cookbook is full of delicious recipes that are tailored to your special nutritional needs. These time-tested recipes are full of fiber and low in cholesterol, salt, sugar, and saturated fat, yet not short on taste. This fifth edition has been updated with the most recent food exchange lists from the American Diabetes Association, greatly expanded nutrition tables, and concise information on saturated fat, fiber, and cholesterol. The New Diabetic Cookbook also provides tips on meal planning, canning, and freezing. Bestselling author Mabel Cavaiani has added a new chapter explaining how you can prepare your own mixes for a quick, healthy batch of cupcakes, cookies, cakes, or bread, all safe for a diabetic diet. With all of its tasty recipes and invaluable information, The New Diabetic Cookbook is a must-have for your kitchen library.

5.0 out of 5 stars A variety of recipes and excellent nutrition/exchange info, July 8, 2000
By 
sf-fan "sf-fan" (Louisville, KY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The New Diabetic Cookbook (Paperback)
A good general cookbook with some of the best nutrition exchange information. Searching bookshelves, I've been surprised at how few of the books (particularly for diabetics) didn't give nutrition information in any depth. I have a relative new to diabetes and the food exchanges, counting fat grams, etc. are confusing and difficult--this was almost exactly what I wanted.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed...., November 1, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I wanted a diabetic cookbook because my husband and my mother (who lives with us) are trying to eat healthier. I thought following some of the diabetic recipes would be a good healthy, sensible way to eat. I didn't realize that about 1/2 of this entire book is information about diabetes.... the other half is recipes. We don't need all the technical information on diabetes. If you are looking for info on diabetes, then this is definitely the book for you. But if you are looking for healthy diabetic recipes only, this is NOT the book. I wish I had known before I had purchased this book that it is an information first/recipes second book.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not great for me, April 21, 2007
I was recently diagnosed with gestational diabetes. My nutritionist basically told me to watch my carbs, but dont limit my fat/salt/etc at this time. I bought this along with a Betty Crocker Diabetic Cookbook Everyday Meals Easy as 1-2-3. I am glad I bought the other one. It has pictures and is much easier to navigate. In my case the New Diabetic cookbook spends too much time on diabetes information and isn't as appealing for meals. Great for someone else, just not me!
