About

As you may know, diabetes is characterised by abnormal levels of sugar and glucose in the blood. Type I Diabetes, also known as Juvenile onset diabetes, accounts for only 10% of all cases. Type II Diabetes affects as much as 90% of all diabetic suffers and although the onset can partially be blamed on genetics in some cases, most of the time it is causes by being overweight, lack of exercise, high blood pressure, obesity and poor diet choices.  Type II Diabetics struggle with raised glucose levels in their blood which is a result of the loss of sensitivity to insulin by the cells of the body.

The goal in the treatment of both Type I and Type II diabetes is to ensure that blood sugar levels remain normal. For those with Type II diabetes, the best and most effective way of doing this is by making changes to their diet.  I hope to give you dietary guidelines and delicious recipes that will make managing your condition much easier than you ever imagined.

Learning to make healthy food choices will help you to ensure normal blood sugar levels are maintained and will either eliminate certain symptoms or at least keep them under control.
