Diabetes Mellitus-Diet
Abstract
Traditional and classic recipes that will be enjoyed by anyone who is affected by or is managing diabetes.
These recipes are not only delicious and suitable for individuals managing diabetes, they can also be enjoyed by the whole family. Home cooks often feel they must prepare separate meals for individuals with diabetes because of diabetics' many dietary restrictions. Using the American exchanges-per-serving information in this book, it's easy to prepare dishes that will satisfy everyone and that also comply with the limitations of a diabetic diet.
Zeiler uses readily available ingredients and includes old family favorites along with other food ideas, many with new and slightly different twists. She emphasizes quick and easy-to-prepare dishes that are ideally suited to today's busy lifestyle.
There are recipes for every meal and every occasion, including menus that make meal planning even easier. The recipes include:
- Appetizers
- Beverages
- Sauces and other basics
- Soups and salads
- Vegetables and side dishes
- Meat, fish and poultry
- One-dish meals
- Meatless dishes
- Breads, muffins and cookies
- Desserts
- Preserves and pickles
Each recipe has also been kitchen-tested to meet the Canadian Diabetes Association's very high standards of quality and appeal.

Abstract
"The most up-to-date, comprehensive treatment guide to fibromyalgia, by a renowned physician who herself has the condition
"If you suffer from fibromyalgia and are struggling to get help from your doctor, you're far from alone. Ten million Americans experience the widespread muscle pain, profound fatigue, and fuzzy brain ('fibrofog') that have long frustrated both patients and doctors. In this unique resource, Ginevra Liptan, M.D., shares a cutting-edge new approach that goes far beyond mainstream medical knowledge to produce dramatic symptom improvement.
"Dr. Liptan's program incorporates clinically proven therapies from both alternative and conventional medicine, along with the latest research on experimental options like medical marijuana. Since many health care providers have limited fibromyalgia expertise, The FibroManual includes a thoroughly sourced 'health care provider guide' that enables readers to help their doctors help them.
"Alleviate fibromyalgia symptoms in four simple steps (Rest, Repair, Rebalance, and Reduce) and you will
- restore deep, restful sleep
- achieve long-lasting pain relief
- optimize hormone and energy balance
- reduce fatigue
"This accessible and empowering resource provides essential information about understanding and treating fibromyalgia from a physician who, as both patient and provider, understands the illness from the inside."--Provided by publisher.
