The Diabetic Nutriblast Recipe Book

Book excerpt: Diabetics cannot store all of the sugar that they eat or make in their sugar warehouse (as muscular or hepatic glycogen). This can either be because their warehouse is full up (they have run out of glycogen storage capacity) or because their fork lift truck driver keeps taking tea breaks (insulin resistance). Either way if you cannot store the stuff then the best thing to do is to stop eating it! Hence we have designed the 203 recipes to have a maximum of only 11 grams of carbohydrate.
