Following a careful meal plan is the first step in
managing diabetes and keeping blood sugars in
a therapeutic range. This is also the hardest step
in diabetes management. Dining with Diabetes
helps by teaching persons with diabetes ways
to reduce sugar, salt, and fat in foods, without
giving up good taste.
The program is designed for people with
diabetes and their family members. The fiveclass
series includes diabetes education, cooking
demonstrations, and tasting of healthy foods.
After each lesson, participants will take home
recipes and knowledge about how to manage
diabetes in their daily lives.
