Every diabetic should own a copy
Good recipes that anyone will eat. Diabetics want tasty food like the rest of us. This is food that all of us will enjoy. I highly recommend this for anyone who has a diabetic family member.

Betty Crocker's Diabetes Cookbook: Everyday Meals, Easy as 1-2-3
Excellent choice, very informative for the somewhat "diabetes illerate". I will be using it often for my recently diagnosed husband's mealplanning and plan to send a copy to my son (who was also recently diagnosed with Type2 diabetes.

Yummy
I really like the recipes from this book they are simple enought for every day.They are also excellent for entertaining.I like meals that a versatile.This is one of those books.I also like the fact that they are tasty.Some books I have gotten are like something from the 70 health food and my family often dosen't like some of them.this book is great. ...

The good, without the ugly!
I bought this book because my husband's best friend is diabetic. Every time I had them over for dinner he'd never be able to have dessert. We'd all eat and he'd watch. I felt really bad and needed a plan B, and this book was it. Now we can all have dessert the healthy way. I no longer use my other dessert books that are loaded with sugars. Great book, I absolutely love and recommend it!!!!

Simply Splendid
The title says it all. This is one of the most fantastic cookbooks out there. Written by a nutritionist, it features over 75 low-sugar, low-fat recipes with satisfying portion sizes and a delicious taste. The book has recipes for hot and cold beverages, breakfast treats, pies and cobblers, cookies, cakes, puddings, and more. Furthermore, the author explains how she came up with the recipes, so you can easily adapt your own. Splenda and simple lower-fat substitutions let you satisfy your sweet tooth without sacrificing yourself. Each recipe includes nutritional information, including the diabetic exchange plan. However, while this book is great for anyone watching their sugar and calorie intake, including diabetics, the recipes are not necessarily low carb and some sugar is occasionally called for (perhaps a couple of tablespoons or sugar, or in the form of chocolate). If you are already baking desserts with Splenda, then this cookbook, with its emphasis on healthy twists to traditional recipes, might not be so helpful. But if you are looking for melt-in-your-mouth inspiration, then check it out.

Low-cal American classics that really work!
I've had this book for several years, and I reach for it all the time. Every single recipe I've ever made from it has turned out well, and most have been spectacular. Favorites: Pumpkin Pie, Banana Cake, and Bran Muffins. I think the author really knows her baking science, and clearly has tested and retested every recipe.

A Perfect Fit
I have been on a moderate carb diet for a few years and was experimenting with recipes that would fit with my exchange diet and carb counting.Splenda had been on the market for only a year and few people knew how to cook with it and gain good results.Enter Marlene Koch into my life.Her recipes from this book were just what the doctor ordered.There is just enough sugar to make the textures in the food work, but the carb count and fat content was "a perfect fit" for my diet needs.Not only that, but every recipe I tried tasted fantastic and this book has allowed me to return classic recipes such as three bean salad, coleslaw, gingerbread and "sugar" cookies back into my diet without guilt or ill effects.I've made many of the recipes in this book and make her "Heavenly Cheesecake" for my holiday table each year.
My favorite cookbook
I have tried many receipes from this book, and there is only only one that I won't make again.Not only are the receipes in the book excellant, but I have used the book as a resource for changing other receipes to use Splenda. I have also modified some of the book's receipes to use more whole grains with good results.We like the fact that not only do the receipes use Splenda, but they are also low in fat.My only complaint is that the book does not show the number of grams of sugar, as we don't use the Diabetic exchange method, but use the food index and load information.I also have her prior book "Unbelievable Desserts with Splenda" which does give the sugar grams with the carbohydrate grams. However, I like this book better because it provides receipes for a wider variety of foods.

Fantastic recipes deliver tasty but healthy treats
I received "Fantastic Food with Splenda" as a gift, and what a treat! While you could confidently serve these recipes for company, this is a cookbook you'll use everyday, not just when cooking for special occasions. Author Marlene Koch's dedication and nutritional expertise show through in the well-crafted introductory chapters where she shares solid information on ingredients, techniques and dietary issues as well as in the balanced selection of recipes.

I CAN EAT DESSERTS AGAIN!!!
This is a great cookbook and I've been pleased with the recipes I've tried so far.The desserts are excellent and we've had a lot of fun trying them out.Best of all, they are guilt-free!I watch my calorie count every day and many of the desserts are only 100-200 calories.I am looking forward to trying out several of the mixed drink recipes, too.This is a cookbook that covers all types of foods from appetizers to desserts and is a great way to eat healthier.I love that the nutritional information is listed for each recipes, as well as helpful notes for many of them.I wish there were pictures instead of illustrations, but other than that, it's a great addition to my cookbook collection.

The only cookbook you'll ever need.It's that good!
I bought this book because I was looking for recipes using Splenda, and were low in sugar, fat and calories as my husband is a newly diagnosed diabetic. I tried the Banana Muffins recipe first, fully expecting them to taste like "diet food." Wow! Was I ever surprised!I liked the muffins so much, I made them for friends and family who loved them so much they begged me to make more.My husband raved about the Banana Muffins to his doctor who promptly rushed out to buy the book for himself!The books gives analysis per serving info (the main reason I initially bought the book) and the recipes are incredibly easy to follow and taste yummy.We both have hope because of this book that we can eat a variety of healthy, tasty food.This cookbook is the only one I have in my kitchen now.God Bless Marlene Koch for this wonderful book! ...

it works
my doctor put me on Actose in January of 2006 and by June, my blood sugar was still out of control and my weight was 306 lbs.I read about this while researching on the web and thought i would give it a try.From July 18 to Sept 15 I have lost 34 lbs. My blood sugar stays below 100 even after meals, and I have more energy than i have had in 20 years.Read this book and stick to it like your life depends on it, and it WILL work.

Should have been more info on book
I was upset with the book.My mistake, but was unaware he has and is writing this book as a man with type 1 diabetes.I am just learning about the disease since being diagnosed, but am type 2 and there is a world of differnce between the both of them.It scared me and I put the book down and will not read any more of it.I got other books that are helping me adjust to this illness.

Follow-on to Diabetes Solution
Great follow-on to Dr. Bernstein's "Diabetes Solution". He takes the ADA to task and rightly so. His approach gets results right from day one. This second book provides an abbreviated but adequate explanation of his approach to living with diabetes and is supplemented with excellent low carbohydrate recipes. ... Read more

Book's info is obsolete and could cause harm
This book was written in 1985 (and printed in 1987)!That is almost 20 years ago and obviously not in line with today's knowledge about renal problems or failures.For instance, this book pays no attention/ignores "phosporus", the level of which a patient has to monitor very carefully to avoid serious additional health problems. Anyone with renal problems should review this book with their doctor before using any of its recipes, or better yet, the book should be totally revisioned or taken off the market before it hurts people.

Wonderful Cookbook!!
I have had this book for several years, we have tried just about every recipe in it and they are all great! I get complements all the time on the wonderful food, no one believes that the recipes are from the Renal cookbook. Creative Cooking for Renal Diets
I bought this book for my mom who is operating on less than 50% kidney function.The recipies are appetizing but a bit out of date.The recipes we tried were very good.The book needs to list the amounts of protein, salt, potassium and phosphorous in the servings.Elderly people who are restricted in those areas need that additional information to help them stay in compliance. ...

You've got to read this book!
I received this book as a gift. There are quite a few books on this subject on the market and this one is the best. I too could not put it down and finished it in 3 days. It's a huge book, a great resource that is well researched and written.. I have a few friends who've purchased this book and really loved it too. I can highly recommend this book.
Easy recipes
I really like the recipes in this book.Using the slow cooker makes life as a full-time working mom easy as can be.The ingredients are not off the wall like other cookbooks, and the meals taste great!The family loves everything I have made so far using the recipes in this book, which is great because low-carb is the healthy way to go.

I love it!
I've been living a low carb lifestyle for the past two years.This book makes my life so easy!I don't really like the desserts, but my husband has enjoyed them.These recipes have made my life so easy!I set everything in the crock pot before I leave for work, and when I come home, dinner's ready.Even my kids, who are extremely picky, enjoy the recipes. ...

A variety of recipes and excellent nutrition/exchange info
A good general cookbook with some of the best nutrition exchangeinformation.Searching bookshelves, I've been surprised at how few of thebooks (particularly for diabetics) didn't give nutrition information in anydepth.I have a relative new to diabetes and the food exchanges, countingfat grams, etc. are confusing and difficult--this was almost exactly what Iwanted. ...

Simple and Quick
My husband was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes last year.It was a shock and I went crazy buying cookbooks on Amazon to help me deal with his new dietary requirements. Disappointed...
Unless you live in town or a city, can afford to purchase countless ingredients in Miss Webb's recipes from alternate sources such as health food stores or expensive grocery stores, don't count on finding many ofthese ingredients in your average run-of-the-mill grocery store in a smalltown. These meals may take little time to prepare, but if you're not in ahigher income-bracket and you have a family to feed, you probably won'tlike this book.

Easy healthy cooking ideas
This book is true to its title.I loved that it listed some main "healthy" staples at the beginning of the book that everyone should have on hand.I also really liked the easy meal ideas at thebeginning of the book for those nights you need recipes that will usewhatever you have on hand in your cabinets.Some of the main recipes werea little more complicated than I had hoped.Still, overall this was anexcellant choice and I know that I will use it for years to come. ...

Bible??The book is less then a inch thick!
Maybe its the beginners bible and not the holy bible size they were talking about.This book is for beginners only!!The main part of this book is recipes.If I wanted that I would have bought a recipe book not a book to teach me about diabetes nutrition.This is not a complete anything!!!Try Prevention The Sugar Solution.I am returning the "bible".What a waste of my money having to return this book.Not sure why it has so many stars.

The Diabetes Food and Nutrition Bibld
This is a very informative book, with lots of tips.I've tried some of the recipes and they are good.I also purchased the book for a family member and they also found a lot of useful information in the book.

Does Not Deliver What It Promises
I would not recommend this book for people who are trying to get their life together after a diagnosis of diabetes. I bought this book because its subtitle is "A Complete Guide to Planning, Shopping, Cooking, and Eating". It is none of those things.

Editorial Review

The Sugar Busters! diet lets you eat just about anything except certain carbohydrates, including refined sugars, red and white potatoes, corn, white rice, highly processed grains, beets, and carrots. This cookbook offers a variety of Sugar Busters!- acceptable recipes, averaging about 40 percent "correct" carbohydrates, 30 percent protein, and 30 percent fat. These recipes won't keep you in the kitchen all day, though most aren't produced in a flash, either. Breakfasts are predominantly egg dishes. Lunches include Stir-Fried Ginger Chicken, Chesapeake Crab Cakes, Whole-Wheat Spaghetti with Olive-Tomato Sauce, Fourth of July Macaroni Salad (colorful with red onions, tomatoes, green bell peppers, and onions), and Bayou Spicy Boiled Shrimp. Dinner entrées emphasize meat, fish, and poultry, with some regional and international dishes. The collection also includes separate recipe sections for vegetables, appetizers, salad dressings, sauces, and holiday dishes. Read more

Very Helpful
I was pleasantly surprised by this cookbook. The recipes are very easy to use and to shop for. The food taste very good. I had more energy and overall felt better. This cookbook is very helpful to me as a person with hypoglycemia.

Helpful Tool
The book is very helpful in putting together menus for people who have to watch their diet. It takes a lot of guesswork out of what to cook, and portions etc.

I FINALLY UNDERSTAND HOW MY BODY WORKS!
I am surprised at the negative comments by the 'vegetarians'. This book is for everyone and has recipes that will work for you! I have just begun ANOTHER weight loss mission and have already lost 10lbs! I don't feel hungry and now understand the foods that will make my body eat the fat instead of store it. I now look at all labels and will not buy anything that has 1 or more grams of sugar. Once I started looking at labels it was amazing to see just how much sugar I was eating without realizing. I am approaching 40 and my body was not responding to diets, exercise or anything. It is responding now. I am not a cook, but with this book, I am able to cook the recipes with ease and I like the meals! There are plenty of choices too. I hesitated before buying this book, but it was the best book purchase that I have ever made! Good luck to you too! I could hardly put this book down. Just like my new morning brew made from soy beans. Taste like coffee, sans the caffeine, and contains no tannic acids. I have no more heartburn and that is something to write about. Google it online under "s oyfee".

Carbs are not restricted low enough.
The recipes look very interesting and tasty, however the carb levels are higher than some diabetic diets require. Since it is put out by the ADA I guess that I should have known that in advance.

One Pot Meals For People With Diabetes
A wonderful compilation of diabetic recipes.Easy to understand, easy to makeand delicious.Highly recommend.

Cookbook
I found this book very helpful.I'm sure I will be using it often.

Actually Edible Recipies!
I've been suckered into getting a lot of cookbooks that call for ingredients that I would not give to my dog.In fact, the dog wouldn't even eat some of the "healthy, yummy, tasty, etc." leftovers from some books. good food done right
I got this cookbook from the VA on loan. I am from the south and this book is right down my ally. I love the food and the ease of preparation that is shows. I have been cooking for 3 years am not very good. I made 15 of these meals and loved everyone of them but one. I substituted my leftovers for the food called for. I made breakfast in under 30 minutes three morning in a row. Lunch was an snap. and dinner was jsut fabulous and quick to make,under 45 minutes. This includeed the prep time also.

Good, solid Stevia recipe collection
After all the positive things I had heard about Stevia, I decided to give it a whirl.Coming by good Stevia recipes is quite difficult ... perhaps because many people don't know about it and/or because it doesn't taste exactly like sugar.I have tried several recipes out of this cookbook, and I haven't liked all of them.So why am I giving it 5 stars?Because it beats the competition.Also, I think that if you have never had Stevia before it takes awhile to acquire a taste for it.The recipes that I liked the most were ones that had another "sweet" ingredient in it to help dampen the bitterness of the Stevia.For example, I love the Carob Chip Cookies, Carob Brownies, the fruit sauces and the oatmeal banana bread.I did not like the coconut peanut butter cookies or the lemon pudding.If you try a recipe and do not like it, don't give up!Move onto the next one and try again!

This is the one to buy
I've tried several of the stevia cookbooks that Amazon carries and this is the one.The recipes use whole-grain, healthful ingredients - so you end up with food that's not just sugar-free but overall good for you.They taste great and are easy to adapt and tweak.We make muffins based on his banana bread every week.Also this author skips the evangelizing, etc that most of the other books are padded with - just "here's a natural sweetener and how to use it."Really excellent.

The recipes are yummy!
My favorite recipe is the stevia fruit gluk. It is delicious and easy to cook. The apple pie is also terrific. Most of the recipes taste better than sugar recipes, because stevia tastes so good. I would recommend that youbuy a copy, then another 5 copies for your friends. Read more

January 2005 - Better resources now available !
This book is light reading and lacks knowledge sharing of glycemic foods.I was not looking for a Dr.'s book on food and recipes but this book was not fullfilling for me.It encourages the use of the 'bad' fats.It does encourage low glycemic foods and low sugar foods.What I am trying to share is that I bought two books at the same time, the other by "GALLOP"- Living the G.I. Diet, and found this one to be greatly lacking by comparison.
Terrific asset to your cookbook collection!
My husband started on SugarBusters almost a year ago, after my boss lost 50 lbs on it. We bought the SugarBusters book and also the cookbook. Never used any of the recipes in either. Instead, I was cooking only a meat and several veggies for each meal, and we were getting a little burned out. THEN, we found this in a bookstore! Everything we've tried has been terrific, not to mention easy. Hubby has lost 55lbs, thanks to SugarBusters and regular exercise. We're eating better tasting food than we ever have, and it is healthy, to boot! The shopping guide is extremely helpful and more comprehensive than the one put out by SugarBusters. I have since given at least 5 copies of this as gifts, along with Sugar Bust for Life Part II.

Disappointing
Recipes are intricate, difficult and call for ingredients that are not "on hand" for the average person, especially a working family.

Good for a recently diagnosed diabetic
I have been a diabetic for several years and purchased this book simply to see what it contained.I have found several ideas for myself and a great many items that would be very usefull for a recently diagnosed diabetic who wants to get started cookin good food without haveing to worry about the fact that it ordinary food and not what the usual types of food that the doctors and Neutritionists recommend.

Diabetic meal planning made easy
This book showed us how to plan our meals without getting stuck in a rut.

Diabetic cooking
This is a great book for meals we all used to like and thought we could no longer have.

Not Just Good For Diabetics!
I bought this cookbook recently to give to someone just diagnosed with diabetes and spent a good deal of time reading the recipes, myself. It is a good cookbook for anyone who is interested in eating healthy. I copied some of the recipes for my own use. I particularly liked some of the chicken recipes as well as the recipe for black bean soup. Each page of the book is divided into thirds so that you can mix and match different foods as you plan your meals. When you get past that initial barrier of figuring out what is going on with the book, you will like this cookbook tremendously. There is a wealth of information here to make us all healthier eaters. ... Read more

Good recipes.
I am not a diabetic.I got this book because of the "heart healthy" part of the title.The loaded baked potato soup is wonderful as is the broccoli soup.Those are the only 2 recipes I've tried so far, but they are well worth the price on their own, in my opinion.
D & H HEALTHY COOK BOOK
ONE OF THE VERY BEST BY A VERY WELL KNOWN AUTHOR

Sugar in almost EVERY recipe.
I was completely disappointed in this book and in fact, threw it in the garbage.I expected to find recipes to supplement my current bland diet, but upon examining this book, I found sugar to be in almost every recipe, including main courses, not to mention the deserts.This would be fine for someone who is simply trying to lose weight, but not for a diabetic.Especially one like me who is Type 2 and needs to strictly control their sugar consumption.I don't feel this author understands diabetic eating nor diabetes itself, as not controlling it properly can result in blindness and loss of limbs.I do not recommend this book for anyone who takes their diabetes seriously. ...
