"Dining with Diabetes" - Purdue Cooperative Extension's multi-session program, Dining with Diabetes, is designed to educate participants on practical ways to lessen the health risk posed by diabetes. The program consists of four 2-hour lessons with information about diabetes. The program highlights food choice, diet planning, healthy cooking, portion control, medical indicator awareness, and health activity levels for those with diabetes. Participants will watch food preparation presentations and taste test various dishes as well as take copies of recipes home with them. The foods used are dishes that people like to eat but prepared so they are lower in fat, carbohydrate, calories, and/or salt. The program is targeted to diabetics or those at risk for diabetes, and their caregivers, but it is also helpful to anyone interested in diabetes or friends and family of a diabetic. People interested in this program should contact their county Purdue Extension office and ask to speak to the Consumer and Family Sciences Extension Educator.
