MANY South Africans are affected by insulin resistance or Type 2 diabetes, a metabolic disorder that results in high blood sugar. Diabetes sufferers often think they have to give up a variety of foods, but a combination of diet and exercise can reduce the risk of developing diabetes and help to maintain optimum blood sugar levels. A balanced diet can stabilise blood glucose levels and reduce sugar cravings, and the key is to consume appropriate daily amounts of proteins, carbohydrates and fats. The book offers solutions for all occasions, from breakfast and light meals to entertaining, plus ideas for desserts and baking.

The uncomplicated recipes are in tune with modern food trends and meet our desire for healthy everyday meals that are easy to

prepare.
