About Me

Those that know me are fully aware of my enthusiasm for exercise of any type and especially nutrition. No, I m not one of those credentialed health gurus but I have learned many things from all of them.

I have been a type one diabetic for about 15 years and believe it or not, I am convinced that I have a diabetic advantage when evaluating eating plans. I am keenly aware of my blood sugars before and  after meals as well as before, during and after exercise sessions and know immediately how different foods affect me.  I also care passionately about helping myself and others prevent diabetes, heart disease, alzheimers and kidney disease, all of which have devastated my family. Yup, I am willing to do anything to change that path to sickness and I want to share and discover healthy ideas with my friends.

In this blog,  I will share some of the things I have learned about food in my own kitchen and plan to include some great advice from well known nutrition giants. I do not endorse any particular eating style but will try to expose some of the most interesting and universal concepts. I have many great recipes to share. I invite your comments, experiences and recipes also. We can learn from each other!
