“A Taste of Food as Medicine Diabetes”

Diabetes is the fastest-growing disease in most countries around the world, including Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific. Since 2000, diabetes diagnoses have tripled in Australia. But there is good news: most cases of Type 2 Diabetes are preventable and many diagnoses are reversible.

Food As Medicine: Cooking to Prevent and Treat Diabetes by Dr Sue Radd sets out the pattern of cooking and eating that can make all the difference for diabetes risks. This cookbook was award “Best in the World” in the category for cookbooks by health professions at the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards in June 2025.

Now A Taste of Food As Medicine for Diabetes excerpts some of the key health and nutritional information from Dr Radd’s award-winning cookbook in a sampler booklet for sharing good health in your community. Full-colour throughout, this new sharing resource features 13 sample recipes from the award-winning cookbooks Food As Medicine and Food As Medicine–Diabetes.

Share them with friends and neighbours, use them as part of your church’s health and other outreach programs, use it as the basis of a specific diabetes community health program or cooking demonstration, share them with leaders and health professionals in your community.
