Crispy Chicken Asparagus Bundles
I have made this dish a couple of times and really enjoy it. Not only do the flavors go together well, but it also looks so fancy on the plate! When you cut into it, the spiraling layers gives it an elegant appearance, even though it is extremely easy to prepare. The trick to a really crispy coating is the panko (Japanese-style breadcrumbs). It comes in regular or whole wheat so, if you want the addition of a little fiber, go with the whole wheat variety. I used minced fresh herbs from my little

Simple and Easy Individual Baked Custard Cups
One of my readers asked for a custard she could eat without it making her blood sugar rise. I immediately thought of these individual custard cups which are fast to throw together and have such a creamy great taste.

A sprinkling of cinnamon on top will also work. You can dress this custard up the way you like it. This recipe is for plain van

But Ginger is gifted in many more areas. In fact, two-thirds of the goals we are working o
How to Fight Diabetes Low Blood Sugar
Diabetes management focuses on lowering high blood sugar, but there is an opposite effect called a hypoglycemic reaction or diabetes low blood sugar that can be equally dangerous. Especially for people who have had diabetes for a long time or who take medication or insulin, being able to recognize and treat hypoglycemia is crucial.
What is diabetes low blood sugar or hypoglycemia?
As the name suggests, hypoglycemia means low blood sugar (hypo means low and glycemia means sugar).

Red Yeast Rice: Another Dangerous Supplement
The public continues to buy the argument that "natural" products are safer and healthier than pharmaceuticals, despite ample proof that this is not true.The main reason why is this: in the 1990s wealthy large companies paid for expensive PR campaigns that appealed to the public's paranoia, convincing many that the government was trying to take away their wonderful supplements. At the same time, the industry paid large amounts into the campaign coffers of "anti-regulation" senators and in return

To know what your blood glucose level is, your doctor performs several blood tests, among them a test called glycohemoglobin or HbA1c. This test in particular can help you and your doctor evaluate how well your glucose levels are controlled over the previous several weeks. So, why do you need to bother with a blood sugar monitor to test your blood sugar at home?

Soy Milk
I have been experimenting with using SOY MILK in some of the recipes that use milk.Much to my surprise it has given me great results and it has less carbs as well as less fat than regular or low-fat milk. It also lets me use a little less of the artificial sweetener because it has a sweeter taste than regular milk. So if you want to have less carbs and less fat in your recipes that use milk, try using Soy Milk, it works great.

Researchers tested a range of both soy and dairy yogurt brands, finding that soy yogurt with blueberries, strawberries or peaches has the most s
Popular Diabetes Medication May Also Be Used to Fight Cancer
A recent study has demonstrated that giving mice a combination of low doses of Metformin (brand name Gluophage) with the common chemotherapy medication Doxorubicin (brand name Adriamycin) shrank breast-cancer tumors and prevented their recurrence more effectively than chemotherapy alone.
Chemotherapy is effective against many tumors, said Kevin Struhl, a Harvard Medical School researcher

Lower Carb Diets Help Diabetes-Diabetes Basics HealthDoc.org
Nothing is more frustrating to my diabetic patients than diet. In a culture that doesn't encourage healthy eating habits, it's hard to know what a healthy diet looks like. I hesitate to even use the word "diet" because so many people will immediately think "Oh no! I have to go on a diet?" Well, no not that kind of diet. The healthy diet I'm talking about could best be described as the total of all nourishment you supply to your body. It includes materials for activity,

Now I’m not talking about steroids in the context that you might think (see above) or in reference to HGH (human growth hormone). I’m talking about cortisone.
This is a continuation of an earlier post about summer 2010. After two full months of physical therapy on my shoulder, I decided it was time to go back and get the cortisone (steroid) shot. I feel like I did what I could on my own before going right to the shot that would surely send my blood sugars all over

Understanding Doctor Fails
Picture this: Your computer won't turn on, so you take it to the repair shop. The guy there tells you it's going to cost $ 60 for him to take a look at it. You leave the computer with him for two days. You pick it up, pay your $ 60, but when you plug it in at home you find it still doesn't work. The problem, it turns out, is that the repair shop you took it to was a car repair shop, not a computer repair shop. This is a silly story, of course, because no one takes their computer to a garage to

Benefits Of A Diabetes Meal Plan
Diet has a great influence on your odds of developing diabetes. As proof, the number of cases of diabetes diagnosed in a country is very closely correlated with the percentage of people that are obese in that country. Further proof is reflected by the fact that people over the world in countries with relatively low rates of diabetes who migrate here and adopt our eating habits suddenly find that they begin to develop diab

Here is How Stress Interferes with Proper Blood Glucose Levels
Adrenal glands
Stress often results in elevated blood glucose levels because the adrenal glands trigger the release of glucose stored in different organs of our body when we are under stress.
Unfortunately, the energy released by the body to help us deal better with our environment, is no help for people with diabetes, who find harder than non-diabetics to regain proper blood glucose levels after an stress episode.

Now that the cortisone shot is over with and my shoulder is fixed, it’s time to get that tattoo I’ve wanted for a while. I would have gone a few months earlier, but I didn’t know if I’d need surgery on my shoulder and of course it was the one I wanted the tattoo on.

Lemon-Cranberry Bars
The low-carb desserts or snacks you find here at Just Desserts for Diabetics have been tested to see if they will raise blood sugar. The problem I have encountered is ...most people tend to eat more than a normal serving. I know it is hard not to eat more than what we should but it puts your health at risk. Please try to have only one serving at a time. Be sure to test your blood sugar when you try something new so you will know if it is right for you. Ingredients:1/2 cup sugar substitute 1/2 cu
Understanding Fasting Blood Sugar
Among the most common questions people have about Type 2 diabetes is this: how can they lower their fasting blood sugar?To answer this question in a way that will help you lower your blood sugar we are going to have to first explain why doctors measure fasting blood sugar and what it does--and does not--tell us about our blood sugar health.

Diabetes in the Snow
Amanda asked me this question:We had not been to cold country, had never experienced snow/winter. Do we need to take special care or precaution for pumpy during winter ?Now, I feel I am vaguely able to answer this question, seeing that I am currently looking out at 3inches of snow (and have been stuck at home for the last few days because of it!). Snow isn't something we usually get in England, and when we do everything shuts down or doesn't function properly. But it is nice to look at isn't it?

After a rocky first few days many people's bodies calm down and metformin becomes quite tolerable.If you are taking the regular form of Metformin with meals and still having serious stomach issues after a week of taking

Which Is Worse: Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes?
Late Update: To be completely clear, the goal of this post is to point out how unproductive this question is. It comes up from time to time in the forums, but only leads to division. We all, regardless of type, have plenty to share with each other. Now, on to the original article.On our Facebook page, we discussed the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. In the process, some type 1s and type 2s both suggested that they had it worse.Before we look at this question, let's review the diff

Glazed Chicken with Pear
I know that grilled chicken is an excellent, lean protein choice but it can be boring, especially when it's on the menu a couple of times a week. When I was thinking about how I could prepare it tonight, I looked around my kitchen and saw a beautiful, ripe pear sitting in my fruit bowl and remembered how the sweet and savory combination of fruit with meat can be so satisfying. Pears and apples are abundant in stores right now and they are at their peak. I especially like a Bartlett pear for this

Question of the Week: What are "good" blood sugar numbers?
The following question was posed by one of my readers, "I have diabetes and my blood sugar is all over the map. Could you please tell me the ideal blood sugar level?"Your "ideal" blood sugar level is dependent on when you have taken the test:Before a meal(no food/liquids other than water for several hours): 70-130 mg/dlAfter a meal 1 - 2 hours after you have started eating):
Glycemic Index Food List
Vegetables
A Glycemic Index Food List
When we eat, most foods are converted into glucose (blood sugar). The feature of carbohydrates however, is that they produce higher levels of sugar in the blood than other groups of foods.
But because not all carbohydrates behave the same way when it comes to raising blood sugar, by being selective, we can include them in our meals and have a balance diet that contributes all the nutrients our body needs.

Now You Can Blame Your Big Belly and Diabetes on Bacteria!
New research is adding another reason why some people have large waistlines. Scientists say that excessive bacteria in the stomach caused by a lack of the TLR5 (Toll-Like Receptor 5) protein may be the culprit.
TLR5 guards against an overgrowth of bacteria in the intestines. If you remove TLR5, the intestines will be overgrown with an excessive amount of pathogens. Inflammation will occur making the cells less sensitive to insulin. And, If the cell

Lastest Study Touts Benefits of Once a Week Injected Byetta
In one of those studies beloved by drug companies, three different drug regimens were compared against each other for a very brief period (six months) in a relatively small number of people (about 170 per regimen.) One of these drugs was long acting Byetta (LAR) which will be marketed as Bydureon if it ever gets approved by the FDA. That hasn't happened yet. While this study is being reported as showing long acting Byetta as superior to the other regimens, what it really showed was that none of

Top 5 Reasons Why it’s Great to be a Diabetic
Given a choice, nobody in their right mind would choose to have diabetes. I’m not saying I enjoy or wouldn’t trade my right arm for a cure. The intention of this post is to highlight some of the positive things that come with diabetes, if that’s even possible.

Is Saturated Fat a Big Health Problem?

For several decades, there has been a consensus in the medical field that eating foods high in saturated fat raises the risk of heart disease and other related health problems.

Best Reduced-Carb Blueberry Muffin EVER!
The wild Maine blueberries are in and I can't get enough of them. I wanted to make fresh blueberry muffins, but my past attempts have been less than satisfactory because either they didn't have enough blueberry flavor or, if I tried to add more, the blueberries would sink to the bottom in a soggy layer that would fall apart. I saw a recipe demonstrated on America's Test Kitchen television show on PBS that suggested swirling blueberry jam into the batter, which made sense. So, starting with their

Lows on a Plane.
Yesterday morning, I boarded my flight at 7:15 am. (Which means I was up at 4 am, and then crossed into the strange time-space continuum into the Pacific time zone, which means I am bleary-eyed and totally confused about what time it actually is right now). Since it was such an early flight and since I'm trying my hardest to avoid taking medication to fly, I decided to take this trip without my trusty xanax prescription.** It's in my bag, but I'm not planning on using it.
Blueberry Upside Down Cake
Sometimes when I cook, things don't always turn out as I hoped, as with this recipe. When I turned it out of the pan, it didn't release properly from my old baking tin so that it ended up a broken jumble on the plate (the reason why there's no pretty picture). But the taste was terrific and this dessert was a real hit with my family, so I wanted to share it anyway. Next time when I make this, I'll be sure to coat the pan liberally with the cooking spray or just plan to eat it like a cobbler.The

How to Identify Hypoglycemia Symptoms
Fatigue
Hypoglycemia symptoms are not very common because our body is designed to maintain adequate blood glucose levels at all cost. Let us remember that the brain and central nervous system cannot function without a steady flow of this fuel and that they have no way to store it. However, low blood sugar symptoms may happen on occasions.

Strategies to Get Rid of Tummy Fat
Tummy fat
If you have made a priority to get rid of tummy fat, congratulations! People who gain weight around the middle have a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes type 2 than people who gain weight in the hips and thighs.
Where does fat go?
When we eat more calories than we burn, the body converts most of the excess to fat. Where does the fat go?
The first place where it goes is to the fat cells (also called adipose cells). And here is where the problem starts. Fat cells

Peaches with Ginger Cream
I wait anxiously all year for peach season and I'm happy to announce: they are here once again! Peaches are my favorite fruit and eating them fresh and unadorned is my usual way. Although, I must admit, peaches do pair well with ginger and I sometime crush a couple of gingersnaps and sprinkle them over the top for a quick snack or dessert. Sometimes simple is the very best.
