Delicious food for people with diabetes. Because diabetes affects an estimated 16 million people in the US, half of whom are undiagnosed, there has never been a greater need for authoritative information on the condition.

Each carefully devised recipe is accompanied by a full nutritional analysis. There are also tips on individual foods, alternative ingredients, and serving ideas.
