About Us

As you know millions of people suffer
from diabetes and renal disorders. Diabetes has affected
my family in so many ways that I felt compelled to do
something that could help them and others like them.
Therefore we decided to launch Suitable's
Sugarfree and More Specialized Gift Baskets for people
with Diabetic and Kidney Needs.
For the last 9 years I have been a
care giver for both my husband and his father who are
diabetic and dialysis patients.
In addition I have two sisters who are diabetics
and one as a result required a kidney transplant. She
was extremely
fortunate
to receive a kidney from her husband
many other’s are
not that lucky
Over the years I have found it extremely
difficult to find the right product to meet their
dietary nutritional and health needs all in one place.
When my sister received numerous get
well gift baskets after her transplant, the first thing
we noticed was that each of the gift baskets contained
sweets or treats not suitable for a diabetic.
That along with the alarming number
of people becoming diabetic and not realizing they are
at risk of becoming kidney patients, I knew that more
could be done to assist people in their choices.
Upon completing an enormous amount of
research to find not only healthy foods and snack items
we have found other products that we feel will aid in
comfort and contentment. We have tried all products that
will be on our product list and have chosen only those
that we feel are best.
In addition, to the gift baskets, we
have a Three Day
Diabetic and Renal Emergency Kit. This kit is to be
used in case of an emergency or a natural disaster when
dialysis may not be available.
This kit includes grocery items with long a shelf
life as well as a Three Day Suggested Meal Plan that has
been recommended by the National Kidney Foundation. This
emergency meal plan is very strict and is needed to
control the buildup of toxins and fluids that can be
life threatening. When Katrina hit
Louisiana, hundreds of people
were unable able to attend dialysis and as result many
people lost their lives .This is a must have.
Giving this gift could possibly save a life.
It is our belief that we are
providing a service that will not only aid in educating
people about different products available to them, we
are providing products and a service that could possibly
save their lives.
All of our baskets can be customized
to appeal to our client. We not only provide gift
baskets for adults but for children and teens as well.
Recently Suitable's Sugarfree and
More owner Norma Johnson was interviewed by The
Covington News SmartEdition.
