Best Diabetes Slow Cooker Recipes

Having just been diagnosed with diabetes, and being fairly young and busy, I was so pleased when I checked this book out from the library. The recipes are quick, and for most recipes, the prep work can be done the night before and then just take it out in the morning, turn on the slow cooker, go to work, and when I get home dinner is all ready! The recipes are all based on the glycemic index, so they don't send your sugar on a roller coaster, but you do have to watch out if you are counting carbs, the recipes vary from hardly any to 60+ carbs per serving. I have used this book so many times since it has arrived!

Although cookbooks for diabetics are useful, but not one fits all as humans are the variable and what works for one just may not work for others. Foods effect people in a variaty of ways in diabetes. so some may find they have higher sugar levels on one receipt and lower on others. While some menus may cause weight gain, etc. all involving medications and the reaction on the person reading the book. As a result all must work it out for themselves and not assume that following a published cook book will be a full answer.
