Abstract

Addresses the use of special diabetic products in diabetes. These foods are currently available in health food shops and chemists and are often considered to be “slimming” or therapeutically beneficial. They are, however, no lower in fat or calories than their standard equivalents and they are expensive. Such products have no place in the current management of diabetes and it is recommended that a wide variety of low‐fat, high‐fibre and low‐sugar foods is selected instead.
