I purchased this book for my 10 year old niece who has Type 1 Diabetes. We went through the book picking out recipes to try. The recipes are well varied, lots of good food and lots of things kids would like. At this age kids are like sponges and it’s easy to teach them things that will serve them well in their future, how to eat well, how to consume the more nutritional foods in the least number of calories. All the recipes have nutritional information. For someone with Diabetes it’s very important to get as much information as possible and the book does it in a simple and fun way.

The Everything Diabetes Cookbook: 300 Creative and Healthy Recipes That Put the Fun Back into Cooking
I was very disappointed in this book. It’s great for low fat cooking, but not to manage your blood sugar. Her recipes don’t use sugar substitues, soy flour, whole wheat flour, fat free cheese or cream and whole wheat pastas (higher fiber foods that are slower to absorb in the bloodstream). Recipe in book required that I alter to reduce the sugars, increase protien and fiber. I alter regular cookbook recipes, and I was hoping that this book would be different. One recipe doubles the carbs/sugars for oatmeal by adding lots of dried fruits. Perhaps sugar substitute, a splash of vanilla and cinnamon, 1/2 cup fresh fruit and a couple tablespoons half n half. This would have less sugar/carbs, but more fiber/protein and the small amount of fat will slow the conversion and absorbtion of sugars into the blood stream. So many other recipes have all-pupose flour, potato flour or potato starch, sugar, honey, and even instant rice. Her zucchini bread has 2 1/2 cups of sugar as well as regular flour…wow! Like I said, really disappointing. It’s Low fat focused, not so low sugar. I don’t think it’s for a diabetic who’s really trying to control sugars via diet. It would get 4 stars from me as a NON-Diabetic/Regular diet cookbook.
