title: New evidence-based diabetes nutrition recommendations: correcting myths and updating practice.
abstract: This article summarizes the evidence-based nutrition recommendations for diabetes published first in 2002 by the ADA, and identifies diet information that now should be recognized as misconception or myth. Home care clinicians must become cognizant of evidence-based guidelines and update clinical practices, care paths, and teaching materials accordingly.
