Synopsis:
Offering new hope to millions, this new nutritional approach to diabetes will dramatically alter the way we think about treating the disease Until now, most health professionals have considered diabetes a one-way street. Once you developed it, you were stuck with it- and you could anticipate one complication after another, from worsening eyesight and nerve symptoms to heart and kidney problems. Enter Dr. Neal Barnard, who through a series of groundbreaking studies, the latest funded by the National Institutes for Health, has shown it doesn' t have to be that way. By following the diet outlined in this book, readers can control blood sugar three times more effectively than with the American Diabetes Association' s diet and, beyond that, improve their bodies' ability to respond to insulin- in effect reversing the defining symptom of the disease. And there' s more. Study participants lost weight, were able to cut back on and sometimes even discontinue medications, and left behind tedious exchange plans in favor of delicious foods in generous portions. It' s a new way to treat diabetes. It' s about time.
