Comprehensive diabetes care is more than just pricking your finger and injecting insulin. It also involves taking care of your health in general, like eating right and treating the side effects. A diabetes recipe book, for example, is one way to incorporate whole-body diabetes treatment into your daily routine.
The best-selling diabetes recipe book on Amazon today is The Diabetes Cookbook & Meal Plan for the Newly Diagnosed by Lori Zanini. In it, you’ll find an easy-to-follow 4-week meal plan, along with hundreds of diabetes-friendly recipes.
Other popular books about managing diabetes include the following:
- The Diabetes Code by Dr. Jason Fung
- Dr. Neal Barnard’s Guide to Reversing Diabetes
- The Diabetic Cookbook for Beginners by Tiara R. Barrett
You can select a diabetes recipe book that fits with any other dietary requirements, such as veganism. For instance, The American Diabetes Association Vegetarian Cookbook by Steven Petusevsky focuses on vegan- and diabetic-friendly meals. The book also has four-ingredient dishes if you want food that is simple, easy to prepare, and delicious.
Likewise, you can find cookbooks that match your cooking skill level. The American Diabetes Association’s Quick Diabetic Recipes for Dummies simplifies meal preparations to less than 30 minutes. In addition to the more than 100 diabetes-friendly recipes, the cookbook also has advice on what foods to keep in your kitchen and healthy cook techniques.
There are various other accessories and items you can use to manage your condition and treat side effects. Circulation socks help reduce the risk of venous insufficiency, or blood pooling in the feet. If left untreated, it can cause swelling, edema (fluid retention) and restricted blood flow to the feet, which could result in amputation.
Circulation socks don’t have to be boring, bland “medical outerwear,” either! There are dozens of fun colors and designs to choose from.
The most popular compression socks on Amazon right now are offered by Aoliks. The company offers a variety of 7-packs that come in assorted colors and designs for less than $25.
However, if you are looking for discreet circulation socks to wear on an everyday basis, Amazon has plenty to choose from. Other bestsellers include:
- Cotton Diabetic Socks – 6 Pack CREW from Debra Weitzner
- Physicians Approved Unisex Crew Diabetic Socks from Falari
- Dr. Scholl’s Diabetic and Circulatory Non-Binding Crew Sock
Exercise is just as important as diet when it comes to managing your blood sugars. A fitness watch can help you keep motivated and active. Smartwatches with fitness features can remind you to stand up and move if you sit for too long and keep track of how many steps you take in a day.
