Healthy lifestyle is championed as being necessary for everyone, whether diabetic or not. The massive increases in obesity levels and the condition of pre-diabetes (metabolic syndrome) is testament to the fact that a sedentary lifestyle with a poor diet is not sustainable for anyone. A Vegetarian diet is considered particularly appropriate for diabetics and people suffering from impaired glucose tolerance.

For this reason, every diabetic should learn how to use a diabetic exchange list. Each recipe contains nutrition information and diabetic exchange per serving.
