Cranberry Cooler with Stevia
Anyone who reads my blog knows that I am not a fan of artificial anything. I use butter, not margarine, and sugar in lieu of Splenda.

It is delightfully tart. And best of all, there's only 4 grams of carbohydrates per serving.1/4 cup pure, unsweetened cranberry juice3/4 cup club soda or sparkling

Can an Eight Week Extreme Diet Cure Type 2 Diabetes?
Scientists in the UK, at Newcastle University, have found that Type 2 Diabetes can be cured by diet alone. In a small study, eleven people cut their food intake to just 600 calories( equivalent to two bowls of cereal) a day for 2 months. And, 90 days later, seven people or 64% of the dieters , no longer had any symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes.
"To have people free of diabetes after years with the condition is remarkable – and all because of an eight-week diet," said

Question of the Week- "Diabetes & Fruits - Which Fruits are High in Sugar?"
The following question was emailed to me by a reader for discussion on this week's blog post, "I was diagnosed as having pre-diabetes earlier this year. Since then I have completely changed my eating habits and become a vegetarian. I’ve lost weight but want to lose more. Can you tell me which fruits have a high sugar content? I am wondering about apples, raisins, bananas, and strawberries. I already know I need to avoid orange juice. Thanks for your help!"

The study shows that the benefit of making olive oil part of our menus is connected to its high amount of monounsaturated fat in the form of oleic acid and to its antioxidants. This is probably one of the reasons why people who follow a [...]

Beefy Green Beans and Potatoes
Beefy Green Beans and Potatoes 20 minutes Bob Evans restaurant inspired this meal. The flavor of the green beans and potatoes in the beef gravy exemplifies down-home cooking. This is a lot like a stew, but we substitute low-calorie green beans for the starchy carrots and peas.

Something Worse Than A Low (Hypo)
Hypoglycemic (Low Blood Sugar) Incident
Just last week I was up in the middle of the night with a 48 mg/dl (low or hypo) and headed for the pantry. During the next 20 minutes I came up with the idea for this post when two things collided. These two things are what I would call the “Perfect Storm” with diabetes. It’s actually not the first time this has happened to me and I’m sure it won’t be the last.

Pasta Night
Tonight’s dinner was some Nature’s Promise whole wheat pasta with eggplant and a bit of four cheese sauce. Typically I try to stay away from pasta because of how it impacts my blood sugar, but sometimes it’s just a nice treat. I go for the whole grain and usually organic versions to try and be extra healthy. The image below is my base layer of pasta that will be underneath the eggplant. To me this seems like a good amount of pasta and isn’t like Magg
