Many of us, at the best of times, struggle for inspiration when it
comes to cooking – and that’s without a medical
condition that may affect our eating habits and require careful
management. The right diet is the foundation of a healthy lifestyle
and all the more important for the successful management of
diabetes.

eating and entertaining – alongside a brand new section on packing
healthy lunches and picnics, this book will help make mealtimes

glycaemic index, nutritional information, diabetic exchanges for

their condition and live life to the full.
