Diabetics and hypoglycemics should avoid caffeine because it stimulates a temporary surge in blood sugar which is then followed by an overproduction of insulin that causes a blood sugar crash within hours.

Stealth Health Food - Eat for your health

Recipes
Jicama
Jicama (HE-kuh-muh) is a Central American root vegetable that looks like a potato or turnip but is juicy and slightly sweet. You can slice it and eat it raw, has the flavor of a mild green apple or pear, or boil it like a potato, till soft.
Jicama belongs to the legume or bean family. It is also characterized as a cross between an apple and a potato.  

 

Why it's healthy: One cup contains just 49 calories and is loaded with 6 grams of fiber and around 10.9 grams carbs and is 85%-90% water.  1/2 cup has half the amount.  It also packs a hefty dose of vitamin C. 
Where to find it: The produce sections of high-end supermarkets, like Whole Foods and Fresh Market

Grilled Jicama
serves 4-8
1 medium jicama, peeled, quartered and cut into 1/4 inch thick slices
Olive oil
Salt
Fresh lime juice
Preheat the grill until hot. Brush both sides of the jicama slices with a small amount of oil. Place them on the grill and cook about 1 minute per side. Remove from grill and sprinkle with salt and lime juice.
