Kitchen Hints of the Day!

Thank you to Connie and Nick for passing along these helpful Diabetes Hints and items to keep in stock.


* Heart-healthy cereals such as Cheerios and high-fiber mixes are a good bet.
* Olive oil or a similar healthy cooking oil is essential.
* Look for jellies and jams labelled as “reduced sugar.”
* Go for low-fat dairy items, such as 1% milk and cheese.
* Make sure your meat is as lean as possible and avoid methods of cooking (such as frying) that can impact its health benefits. Consider using tofu rather than meat for some meals.
* If you feel your food is too bland, avoid using salt to spice it up; opt for garlic powder or onion powder instead.
