This book came to reality with the assistance of many individuals.
I’d like to acknowledge the masterful and dedicated assistance of two registered dietitian colleagues, Laura Chalela Hoover, MPH, RDN, and Carlene Thomas, RD. I’d like to thank FoodCare, Inc., and particularly Elizabeth Turner, RD, who knew exactly what I needed to compile the nutrient data for Health Busters and Healthier Bets.
Thanks to the staff from the American Diabetes Association—who took my words, and in this case numbers, and edited and designed them into an easy-to-use resource—including Greg Guthrie, Managing Editor, Melissa Sprott, Production Manager, and Abe Ogden, Director of Book Publishing, and Lauren Wilson of Boldface LLC.
On behalf of people with diabetes and their caregivers, as well as diabetes care clinicians, who will all benefit from this knowledge, I give my thanks to many large national and regional restaurant chains for making their nutrition information available and ever more accessible. And for slowly but surely making more healthy restaurant foods available. Kudos!
Lastly, thanks to my professional colleagues in diabetes care and weight management who consistently lend their ears and ideas. They continue to be an endless source of inspiration and encouragement.
