Be an Informed Reader

All editorial content (articles, news items, columns, editorials, etc.) in Diabetes Forecast® is reviewed by health care professionals. That said, you should never make any decision about managing or treating your condition without consulting your own clinicians: They know you best.

Diabetes Forecast recipes are reviewed according to accepted standards for healthy eating with diabetes. But that doesn’t mean you can necessarily eat everything you see in the magazine (or more than the recommended serving size). Your own individualized food plan, as well as advice from your physician or registered dietitian, should always supersede a recipe from this or any other publication.

Diabetes Forecast features articles about cutting-edge research relating to diabetes. Many of these studies involve products, technologies, and theories that are in the early stages of testing and development. It’s important not to base any treatment decisions on these results.

Sometimes, in our interviews with people who have diabetes, the person being profiled will say something about their own personal experience that may not be entirely consistent with standard practice. In these cases, we print what the person said because we think it gives readers insight into that individual’s experience that we believe will resonate with others. But it’s worth repeating: We urge you to always check with your medical team before changing your own diabetes regimen.

Advertisements in Diabetes Forecast are reviewed according to established criteria and guidelines. We aim to support public awareness of commercially available products—things that might be helpful to you in managing your diabetes—and to avoid advertisements that might deceive or mislead the reader. Acceptance of advertisements in Diabetes Forecast is not an endorsement by the American Diabetes Association. The Association does not test advertised products, does not conduct independent scientific review, and does not ensure their safety and efficacy or their claims. Companies selling through the mail must comply with federal regulations regarding customer notification if the product is not available within 30 days. The Association reserves the right to reject any advertisement for any reason, which need not be disclosed to the party submitting the advertisement.
