 Spring is in the air, friends are getting married and this time I know exactly what to get for them. The happy couple are both diabetic and both like sweets and desserts which makes them a perfect fit for a frozen fruit treat maker! The shock of having to go from normal diet to zero sugar in a week (or less), is profound. My husband really struggled to stay cheerful as one by one the old favorites vanished off his plate. No more sticky caramel sponge, or white chocolate cream cheese, no more rich sweet ice creams with boozy combinations. In fact, as he put it no more foodie fun. The reality sunk in over a couple of weeks, even breakfast of homemade bread toasted with marmalade was out, forget normal marmalade it's loaded with sugar. Most breakfast cereals have added sugar, check on the side of the box and you'll be in for a nasty surprise as there's very few with low enough sugar to qualify as diabetic friendly. I won't run through the whole day's meals and how...

 Fresh vegetables are some of the healthiest food you (and your kids) can eat, but many people don't realize that frozen vegetables are just as good for you and sometimes even better. Because of this, they are often written off from the shopping list, but this is a mistake even if you prefer fresh vegetables. There will always be times when frozen vegetables should make their way into your diet. Let's look at the three primary advantages of them. Advantage 1 - Frozen Vegetables Are Nutritionally Sound Freezing acts as a preservative for vegetables so there are no chemical additives required that serve no nutritional benefit or possibly even harm the vegetables. The freezing process inhibits the growth of bacteria and other particles. Canned vegetables on the other hand add salt as a preservative and inhibitor. Sometimes many other useless ingredients are also added. Too much sodium and other stuff in the diet can lead to adverse health effects like high blood pressure. While...

 There are various considerations to make when Dehydrated Fruits . Each step should be pre-planned for best results, everything from fruit selection to the drying process itself will play a role in achieving your desired outcome. The first important step is the fruit selection. Choose the kind of fruit you wish to dry, such as apple, peach, apricot etc. Once you choose the kind, make sure to select the best quality available, no blemishes and fully ripened not under or over ripened fruit.
