The incidence of diabetes increases every day, affecting not only those who may have diabetes, but also those who care for, live with, and work with people with diabetes. This site focuses primarily on the role that diet plays in the treatment of adults with diabetes. Food can have a significant impact on the successful management of diabetes. Meal management can be very confusing.

While this site is intended to help simplify how to plan meals and what foods to eat, it is not intended to replace any information, counseling, or advice that your health care provider has given you. This document is a source of information only, and is not medical advice.

The following links are provided to our visitors to learn about the H1N1 Flu Virus.

Extension Dimension
Are you having a hard time connecting with your children or spouse? Is it hard to keep up with the family schedule? If you are like many families, family time together can be difficult to come by, so that is why mealtime is a great opportunity to spend time visiting with your family. The Family Mealtime Challenge is a University of Illinois Extension effort to encourage families to eat together. Fall is a great time for your family to “Strive for Five” by eating five meals together each week.
