A
regular day in our office goes like this: “What
information can we provide that’s of most value
to people who have diabetes?” We also ask the same
question of our amazing team of diabetes experts.
A couple of months ago we decided to create a 22-
page guide with our experts’ advice on how to enjoy
an active and healthy life – for all your life.
Our experts’ replies covered topics we expected, but
they also came up with some surprising suggestions.
Such wisdom only comes from health professionals committed
to helping people live well with diabetes. Turn to page 71 and
discover those secrets for yourself.
One of those experts is dietitian Lisa Urquhart, who is moving
into teaching and research at the University of Newcastle after
three years of working with our food editor Alison Roberts. “I
thoroughly enjoyed helping create recipes,” Lisa says. “I hope
we’ve been able to empower people to make the best decisions
for their health.” Thanks Lisa for caring so deeply about people
who have diabetes. We wish you well. The wonderful work
Lisa and Alison do is showcased from page 20 onwards, with
some delicious winter warmers. Enjoy!
Toni Eatts, Editor
