Most of us eat too much sugar, which can have serious repercussions on
our health and well-being. It is widely accepted that a diet too high in
sugar can cause mood swings, fatigue, obesity, heart disease, diabetes,
and even premature ageing. But eating low-sugar foods doesn't have to
mean being condemned to a dull diet, as the wonderful range of recipes
in this book demonstrates.
The good news is that there are numerous naturally sweet foods and
flavourings that can be substituted so that there's no need to resort to
artificial sweeteners with their reported adverse health effects. Here,
Nicola Graimes presents more than 100 easy-to-follow meals and snacks,
inspired by recipes from around the world. Chapters are divided into
Breakfasts, Brunches, Light Meals, Snacks, Dinners, Desserts, and Cakes,
Bakes, Breads. You'll find delicious family favourites ranging from
curries, stews, stir-fries and salads to sponge puddings, muffins and
cheesecakes. Savoury foods can also be surprisingly high in added sugar,
particularly canned foods and sauces, and you'll find specially adapted
dishes for healthier, low-sugar alternatives. All the recipes have been
carefully created to be suitable for diabetics to meet their dietary
requirements. This means that they are also low in salt and saturated
fat and high in unrefined carbohydrates and fibre – not forgetting
packed with bountiful amounts of fresh produce. Clear at-a-glance
symbols highlighting nutritional benefits provide an additional valuable
feature.
