Food for Life: Diabetes Initiative

Population studies and clinical research show that a low-fat, plant-based diet can be very
effective in improving blood glucose, promoting weight loss, lowering cholesterol, and reducing
the risk of common chronic diseases, such as many types of cancer. The goal of this program is
to empower people who have diabetes, or concerns about developing diabetes, along with their
friends and family members with practical cooking skills and tips that make meals healthy and
delicious.
