I'd second diet doctor .. it has a huge amount of free info and even more if you sign up but it isn't necessary to do so.
Loads of meal plans recipes and good ideas about low carbing and keto.

From Amazon:
  • Volek and Phinney: The Art and Science of Low Carbohydrate Living (for general info on low carbing, not specifically diabetes related)
  • Richard K. Bernstein: Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution: The Complete Guide to Achieving Normal Blood Sugars (for inspiration from a type 1 diabetic)

I also second Diet Doctor, it's a fab website and a great resource. I also liked Richard Bernstein's book, but found this one to be a little easier to digest:

https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/194372105X/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The Ketogenic Diet for Type 1 Diabetes: Reduce Your HbA1c and Avoid Diabetic Complications by Ellen Davis and Keith Runyan.
I’ve just finished reading that one, it not nearly so heavy going. On to Think like a Pancreas next!
