Does anyone know a good website for diabetics, one that has an easy diet to follow?

Definitely try out the ADA (American Diabetes Association) website to start with. \nAlso, a good place to start is by doing a Yahoo or Google search for diabetic diets (also try "meal planning for diabetics") etc. There are sites out there that will actually plan out diets for you, but they usually require payment. \n\nIf the web doesn't work for you, talk to your doctor and ask him / her to refer you to a registered dietician or nutritionist. Check with your local department and see what resources they have available in the area of diet and nutrition. \n\nGood luck and best wishes....

You are allowed to have a very small portion of potatoes, every now and then. Call your local hospital, and speak with both the diabetic nurses, and the nutritionist. They may be able to give you a few sheets with what is good or bad for a person, and proper serving sizes.\n\nhttp://www.healthy.net/scr/article.asp?Id=2835 \nhttp://www.safenaturaltips.com/\netc \n\nHave your stepdad and mom try this recipe: \n\nCauliflower Mashed "Potatoes"\n\n1 head cauliflower\n1 clove garlic (optional)\n1/8 cup skim milk, plain yogurt, or good butter\nSalt & pepper\nPaprika\n\nThis is a great, low-carb alternate to mashed potatoes. I'm not a big fan of cauliflower, yet this tastes surprisingly good.\n\nSteam cauliflower (optionally with a clove of garlic) until tender. Cut the cauliflower into pieces and place in a blender with the milk, yogurt or butter. Season with salt and pepper and then whip until smooth. Pour cauliflower into small baking dish. Sprinkle with paprika and bake in hot oven until bubbly.\n\nCarbohydrates: 6g per cup

Contact the American Diabetes Association.  Your doctor should have pamplets and information.  There should also be information that comes with your glucometer.  Your local hospital should also have information available.

The government put together a website in accordance with the USDA's Dietary Guidelines. It's very useful, and very easy to use. Use the following web addresses. The first is the homepage of the site, the second is a page where you can set up a FREE account to track your daily progress not only of nutritional intake but also your daily activity which is just as important! The tracker lets you know if you've met your recommended daily intake for each particular nutrient based on your height, weight, sex, and physical activity level. \nWhatever you do, don't subscribe to any of these crash or fad diets, and certainly do not take any prescribed diets from anyone without first checking their credentials. For your safety you should make sure that they are a Registered Dietician. \nHope this has helped!

Your best web resource for information on diabetes would be the American Diabetes Association. www.diabetes.org\n\nIf you are looking for other sources, consider talking to a doctor or a CDE (Certified Diabetes Educator). \n\nThere are also a lot of great answerers on this site. So, if you ask a specific question, you can probably get some information here. \n\nGood luck and best wishes...\n\nGood luck!

rule of thumb, aviod sweet food and check ur sugar regularly. eat plenty of green vegetables, avoid taking much carbohydrate (bread, rice, cereals, etc), eat it moderation (but dont starve), and exercise regularly. hope it helps, but hey dont forget to seek expert help, preferably from a doc/ diabetic nurse/ dietician. the american diabetic association has a resourceful website too. http://www.diabetes.org/home.jsp
