5.0 out of 5 stars The Type II Diabetes Cookbook: Simple and Delicious Low-Sug, October 15, 2001

This review is from: The Type 2 Diabetes Cookbook : Simple & Delicious Low-Sugar, Low-Fat, & Low-Cholesterol Recipes (Paperback)

This is a wonderful book. It has useful information about diabetes, including the effects of stress. It contains many useful charts. One of the best features of this book are popular recipies that have been adapted for a diabetic diet. You don't have to sacrifice enjoyment in order to eat well.

It does contain ingredients that myth declares taboo. This book will show you how to use foods in a healthy way. If you are using books that were written 10 years ago, I would replace them with this and similar books. This book is up-to-date with medical findings.

I regret buying this book and I have no one to blame but myself. I have yet to find any reference to the sugar-substitute Splenda and it is just one of the reasons that I found this book quite out of date. Also I found many of the recipes far higher in sodium than my personal tastes would dictate when recipes called for canned ingredients. There are other options in our grocery stores today that give us healthier choices. It's by no means a bad cookbook - just sorely out of date.
I've only had this cookbook one day and I have to say it has inspired me - to write my own.
