At last! This special cookbook puts flavor and choice back on the menu for people with diabetes and their families Betty Crocker, America's most trusted friend in the kitchen, has teamed up with the International Diabetes Center (IDC)--one of the leading medical centers--to create an indispensable source of easy-to-make recipes and up-to-the-minute food and nutrition information for the growing numbers of people who have diabetes, more than 15 million of them. Here is the first cookbook to include recipes featuring Carbohydrate Choices--the new, simplified approach to meal planning recommended by the American Diabetes Association. For people who find diet exchanges too hard, too limiting or too much work, this new method is a real breakthrough. Each of the book's 140 recipes shows the number of Carbohydrate Choices per serving, so that planning the rest of the meal is easy. From Old-Time Beef and Vegetable Stew to Creamy Vanilla-Caramel Cheesecake, the recipes are made with everyday ingredients, including sugar. No food groups or ingredients are left out, so there's no need for anyone to feel deprived or restricted to a special diet. Food exchanges are also included, making it easy for those who still count calories. Betty Crocker's Diabetes Cookbook is also packed with expert medical and nutrition tips from Dr. Richard Bergenstal, an endocrinologist and diabetes doctor, and two registered nurses-- invaluable for the newly diagnosed as well as for those who have been coping with diabetes for years. Throughout the book, real-life advice from people who have diabetes offers inspiration and great ideas on dealing with this chronic disease. When it comes to eating and living with diabetes, people need guidance and advice they can trust.

This book feels a bit outdated, but has some good recipes.
The majority of the recipes in this book aren't low-carb or hypoglycemic friendly and the nutritional values given in the book are based on either named branded ingredients or dependent on knowing the serving size of the thing that you make.
Overall there are some nice photos and recipes, but this would't be my first choice of a cook book.

This book offers a good starting point for those with pre-diabetes, diabetes, or anyone connected with diabetics. The combination of medical information, advice on diet, exercise, and lifestyle, and over 100 recipes for every meal was informative and easy to read. The overall tone was encouraging and upbeat, and while the language was clear and concise, the aim to make things easy to understand was achieved without seeming condescending or patronizing.
