Ask Dr. Gourmet

I want to add diabetic to my Dr. Gourmet Diet Plan profile of Coumadin and low sodium. It is not a choice on signin. How can I do that?

Dr. Gourmet Says...

There's no selection for a diabetic diet because the foundation of Dr. Gourmet recipes and The Dr. Gourmet Diet Plan is the Mediterranean style diet. Both the American Diabetic Association diet and the American Heart Association diet are based on this style diet. We work hard to keep recipes high in fiber, low in saturated fat and lower in sodium.

Checking the boxes for low sodium and Coumadin use will help you create a diet that should work well with your diabetes.
