Product Description
North America's foremost experts on natural medicine and diabetes create the most comprehensive and user-friendly guide to defeating one of our fastest-growing health problems.
Diabetes remains among the most prevalent health issues, bringing with it an increased risk of stroke and cardiovascular disease. Now an expert in natural medicine and an authority on diabetes combine their knowledge to address diabetes prevention: coping with the disease if you have been diagnosed, and even reversing its effects. The authors provide food and supplement plans that can help you avoid developing the illness, even if there is a family history. If you are currently being treated for diabetes, this program is designed to help reduce or eliminate your need for medication.
This invaluable resource contains risk-assessment tests that track your progress, meal plans, shopping lists, and adjustable nutritional and supplement regimes based on your level of risk or severity of the disease. It is one of the first natural programs to be developed in conjunction with conventional medicine.

This book has changed my life. I am now acutely aware of what and how I am eating and how I am conducting my life to stay healthy and avoid escalating my pre-diabetic condition to type II diabetes. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to make a change to a healthy lifestyle regardless of whether diabetes is a problem or not.

Diabetes impacts the heart, stroke, blood pressure, classic
diabetic nerve damage and autoimmune disease. Risk factors are
aggravated by the high consumption of white sugar by Americans.
Risks can be mitigated with cod liver oil and Omega 3 fish oils.
Type I diabetes may be prevented with proper nutrition, decreased nitrates and avoidance of food allergies. Early breast-feeding is known to protect the child by promoting a healthy gut. Diabetes
may be controlled naturally with multivitamins, flavonoids and probiotics (introduction of good bacteria into the system).
Food allergies are aggravated by diarrhea, constipation, gas,
muscle and joint pain. Foods with a low glycemic index are
apples, asparagus, broccoli, celery, cucumber, grapefruit, tomato, lettuce, spinach , strawberries nuts and seeds.
Oatmeal, peas, pita bread, beans and yams have intermediate levels on the glycemic index.
This book is excellent for anyone desiring more detailed information on the various types of diabetes and sugar control.
It is a worthy purchase for any personal library.
