Powers, Maggie. American Dietetic Association (ADA). American Dietetic Association Guide to Eating Right When You Have Diabetes. Wiley, 2003.
This book was written by the American Dietetic Association in order to provide an authoritative guide for diabetics to choose foods that control their blood sugar and help them maintain an active, healthy lifestyle. It shows readers how to manage blood fat levels and blood pressure as well as how to make healthy food choices and plan tasty meals. Another great feature of this book is the menu plans for daily intake levels of 1,200, 1,500, 1,800, 2,000, and 2,500 calories. This reference book would be a great read for journalists that need information about what diabetics can and can't eat as well as which foods help people manage their diabetes.
