From Publishers Weekly
The host of the Food Network’s Low Carb and Lovin’ It turns his popular show into text, punctuated by many exclamation points. He has a lot to be excited about: in the introduction, Stella offers his own case history as encouragement, explaining how he lost 260 pounds and helped his wife and children trim down, too, by avoiding sugar, flour and other insulin elevators. The first chapters share tips on building a strong support system and eating until you’re satisfied, reading labels and shopping the outer aisles of the supermarket. Most of these will be self-evident to anyone who’s tried to diet before; what Stella brings to the equation is a folksy optimism and a Dad-like sense of humor. Building on the Atkins diet, Stella’s plan emphasizes fresh whole foods, and most of the recipes are starchless versions of casual restaurant cuisine, like Chicken Fajita Salad, Chili-Rubbed Baked Salmon, and Lemon Meringue Pie. Stella acknowledges the importance of moderation and shows readers how to prepare the occasional sweet, plate of pancakes or cocktail. While neither the diet nor the food are innovative, this work will surely resonate with some readers. (Jan.) Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

From Booklist
For the cook who wants to pursue a weight-loss regimen, the authors recommend a low-carbohydrate approach. Their basic advice is straightforward: eliminate the “white stuff” such as sugar, flour, pastas, breads, and other simple sugars and starches. They build from that starting point by emphasizing nutritious foods that offer good flavors and that are easy to work with. Among these, lean meats, poultry, eggs, and cheeses stand out. Lettuce substitutes for tortillas in a burrito-like wrap. Green-bean casserole uses homemade crisp onion topping, mushrooms, and sour cream to substitute for mushroom soup. Ground beef stroganoff fills the bill so long as it’s served without a bed of starch-rich rice or noodles. The Stellas offer a replacement for flour based on ground almonds. Their rejection of sugar doesn’t mean complete denial of sweets. Modern sugar substitutes have made many desserts possible, even a “breadless” bread pudding, which turns out to be a sweetened ricotta dessert. On this diet one may even occasionally indulge in a low-carb margarita. Mark KnoblauchCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved

From Library Journal
Proper diet and exercise are important components of a diabetes management program. Each of these books offers sensible, authoritative, and practical information for diabetics, and can be used as guides to healthy living by nondiabetics as well. Most of the UCSD Healthy Diet for Diabetics is devoted to low-fat, reduced-sodium, and high-fiber recipes for snacks, soups, salads, whole-grain breads, and main dishes both meatless and with meat. Dishes are adapted from a variety of international cuisines and use, on occasion, exotic ingredients such as blue cornmeal. The authors, dieticians on the faculty of the University of California at San Diego (UCSD) General Clinical Research Center, also include information on eating in restaurants, meal planning, and, briefly, exercise and blood glucose monitoring. Diabetes Actively Staying Healthy was written by two exercise specialists at the International Diabetes Center in Minneapolis. It is a comprehensive fitness manual for all diabetics, even insulin-dependent individuals participating in competitive sports. The chapter arrangement and repetition of key facts makes this book useful for both the beginner and the fitness enthusiast. Exercise routines are illustrated with photographs. Although the menus in the UCSD book are not as extensive as those prepared by the American Diabetes Association, both titles are excellent additions to consumer health collections.- Karen McNally Bensing, The Benjamin Rose Inst.
