Product Description:


One-of-a-kind heart-healthy cookbook created especially for people with diabetes



Diabetes puts people at a very high risk of having a heart attack or stroke. To address this problem, the American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Association have written a heart-healthy cookbook for people with diabetes. It's truly a one-of-a-kind cookbook packed with delicious recipes people will truly enjoy! Every recipe is low fat and lower in carbohydrates--and tastes great.

With cardiovascular disease ranking number one on the list of diabetes-related complications, this is the must-have cookbook for anyone who wants to pump up his or her heart health! And it's great for people who don't have diabetes, too.



Delicious yet nutritious recipes include:

  • Loaded Baked Potato Soup
  • Deep South Shrimp Gumbo
  • Swedish Meatballs
  • Devil's Food Cupcakes
  • Angel Food Trifle
  • And many more

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Surprised
I bought this cookbook for my Mom who is a brittle type 2 diabetic who recently had a heart attack. I wanted to give her meal ideas so she doesn't despair over having to limit her diet further b/c of her recent heart problems. I've only looked through it, I'm giving it to her today.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Eats While Staying Healthy
Great cookbook, especially if you are on a restrictive diet due to medical or health related circumstances. We have tried many of the dishes and have found them to be (well, almost to be) very excellent and both flavor, texture and taste. For the health benefits derived it is totally worth the effort.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Big Help
Recently purchased to cook some meals for a neighbor who's wife passed away on Jan. 10, 2008. Was a huge help as he is diabetic and has heart disease.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - The 30 Day Diabetes Miracle is more effective at controlling blood sugar.
This book was fine, but I highly recommend the 30-Day Diabetes Miracle series for managing your diabetes and creating a whole new healthy lifestyle! It's more in tune with "good carbs."

The 30-Day Diabetes Miracle: Lifestyle Center of America's Complete Program to Stop Diabetes, Restore Health,and Build Natural Vitality
The 30-Day Diabetes Miracle Cookbook: Stop Diabetes with an Easy-to-Follow Plant-Based, Carb-Counting Diet



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not worth the cost
I found it to be totally useless and not worth what I paid for it! I expected to find more concerning diabetes and not so many unusual foods or recipes.
