ABOUT THE PROGRAM

Following a careful meal plan is the first step in managing diabetes and keeping blood sugars in a therapeutic range. It is also the hardest step. Dining with Diabetes helps by teaching people 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 five-class series includes diabetes education, cooking demonstrations, and healthy food tasting. After each lesson, participants will take home recipes and knowledge about managing diabetes in their daily lives.

PARTICIPANTS
People with diabetes and their family members, caregivers, and support persons can enroll in Dining with Diabetes. But anyone, with or without diabetes, can attend. This program is designed to complement, not replace, diabetes management classes.
