Diabetes is indeed a serious disease, but it is still possible to lead a relatively normal life. The key to coping successfully with diabetes is self-management, and the most important aspect of self-management is making healthy food choices. In this book Jane Frank explains exactly what diabetes is, its likely causes and how to manage it by improving your lifestyle and discusses the principles behind healthy eating, the glycaemic index (GI) of foods and their glycaemic load.She has collected together over 150 recipes from many different cuisines around the world, picking out dishes that will help you keep blood glucose on an even keel as well as being nutritionally balanced, tasty and easy to cook. Some of these recipes are traditional dishes reworked to be more diabetes-friendly, whilst others are new recipes using culinary traditions from many different countries. Each recipe carries an easy-to-read traffic light code for the glycaemic load as well as a nutritional analysis showing calories, proteins, carbohydrate and fat content. So if you have diabetes or if there is someone in your family who does you will all be able to enjoy a delicious, healthy, normal diet by following this practical, down to earth collection of recipes, meals and menus.Jane Frank is a nutritional therapist and the author of two previous books, \"Eat Smart Beat the Menopause\" and \"The Basic Basics Diabetes Handbook\", also published by Grub Street.

About 1 million people in the UK alone have been diagnosed as sufferers - that's about 3 in every 100 people. It is believed this figure may double in six years. There are estimates that as many as a further 1 million may have diabetes but have not been diagnosed. Of those diagnosed, about 95 per cent are suffering from Type 2 diabetes, this is non-insulin dependent diabetes. Those most at risk are the middle-aged and elderly but increasingly we are seeing diabetes affecting the young. One of the primary causes of Type 2 diabetes is being overweight but happily this form of diabetes is controlled simply by diet and exercise. So understanding nutrition and diet is essential to maintaining your health as a non-insulin dependent diabetes sufferer. Fortunately these days there are no special foods recommended, you should quite simply follow the kind of healthy diet that everyone should be eating, namely at least five portions of food and vegetables everyday and cutting back on convenience foods which are high in fat, sugar and salt - all of which are particularly unsuitable for those with diabetes. This book is the ninth in Grub Street's best-selling \"The Basic Basics\" series, with previous titles including: \"The Basic Basics Jams Preserves and Chutneys Handbook\", \"The Basic Basics Combination and Microwave Handbook\", \"The Basic Basics Home Freezing Handbook\", \"The Basics Basics Baking Handbook\", \"The Basic Basics Soups Handbook\", \"The Basic Basics How to Cook from A-Z\", and \"The Basic Basics Wine Handbook\".","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49538976612625,"sku":"GOR003105658","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49585638899985,"sku":"GOR013509400","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51767597728017,"sku":"GOR006106523","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1906502439.jpg?v=1750834899"},{"product_id":"eat-smart-beat-the-menopause-book-jane-frank-9781904010364","title":"Eat Smart Beat the Menopause","description":"There have been many scares recently about the long-term effects of HRT treatment and so today many women are looking for alternatives to HRT as a way of dealing with the symptoms of the menopause. Diet and nutritional supplements are the natural preferred choice for those seeking another course. This book gives a collection of everyday recipes high in phyto-oestrogens, isoflavones and calcium-rich foods which have been shown to benefit, both in the short and long term, menopausal women. Based on her own experiences, Jane Frank has devised this book for women who, like her, prefer not to be obliged to take HRT.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49636585799953,"sku":"GOR001553431","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50402430550289,"sku":"CIN1904010369G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1904010369.jpg?v=1751428795"},{"product_id":"eating-for-diabetes-book-jane-frank-9781569243657","title":"Eating for Diabetes","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50554779828497,"sku":"GOR004603269","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51325398581521,"sku":"CIN1569243654VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1569243654.jpg?v=1750959205"},{"product_id":"regenerating-regional-culture-book-jane-frank-9783319650357","title":"Regenerating Regional Culture","description":"This book explores the significance of the international book town movement and its impact on contemporary society.

Regenerating Regional Culture assesses why, at a time when the book industry is experiencing a profound transformation, book towns are proliferating in Europe and across the globe.

It transcends terrestrial boundaries, exploring profound connections between the natural world and human experience. Ranging from confessional and ekphrastic poems to surreal evocations of Australian place that express strong emotional connection, these poems maintain a rich dialogue with visual artists and writers of the past and present. Whether she is writing about hang gliding with Leonardo da Vinci, being lost inside a rainforest snow globe or witnessing a pinball game between galaxies, this is tactile and visual writing that bristles with striking language. Moving through her poems is like walking through a forest of imagery, layered and verdant, and is also an expedition through the fabled landscape of imagination and memory where love, longing and loss are familiar compass points. Her poems are often meditations on the joineries of life, the spaces where is meets was and might have been. The introspective is illuminating but there is also an understanding of the ways in which the poet seeks to garden her own life in the face of personal and planetary challenges. The poet is accessible, empathetic and yet displays masterful form and craft. She makes us want to go with her, share the journey, wherever it ends.         \"Like a spirit photographer, she captures ghosts as a natural part of everyday encounters, intermingling the sacred and profane without getting bogged down in jaded nostalgia ... water engulfs most poems, even the insides of rooms, so that the outside flows in, the past drowns the present and lines are blurred ... the juxtaposition of beauty and horror are the strengths of this collection.\" -Lisa Collyer, Westerly, on Ghosts Struggle to Swim        \"Her voice is unique and strong. There are so many different approaches to the white page in this book: complex, dense lines; jagged blocks of text zig-zagging down the page; short lines, giving the poem an opportunity to breathe; serene meditations in prose; stanzas of two, three, four and five lines. The variations refresh the eyes every time we turn the page.\" -Damen O'Brien, Rochford Street Review","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52532271677713,"sku":"NLS9781848619654","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53065438986513,"sku":"NIN9781848619654","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781848619654.jpg?v=1760660162"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-jane-frank.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
