Basic Diabetes & Supplement Treatment
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Written in 1999, this book provides a good basic overview of diabetes, vitamins, minerals, & herbs and their influence on Diabetes.. Some information on sweeteners is outdated e.g. "Splenda is in such great demand that it is only available from Johnson & Johnson internet website (www.sucralose.com)for adult diabetics." I'd buy again or recommend as a reference for those interested in a more natural approach to diabetes control.
A step in the right direction
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Most of the suggestions from the book seem reasonable to me as a means to improve blood sugar. The main problem with the book is that is dated and in need of an update. For example the book says that Splenda would be very hard to find which is hardly the case anymore and does not mention newer products such a PGX for blood sugar control. Otherwise most of the suggestions are probably valid. I would have given 5 stars but for the out of date issue.
DIP: Simple Guide to better health

I was surprised by the simple straight forward approach to the problems that must be addressed to live well with diabetes. This book contains clear sound approaches to nutrition, life style and overall health issues related to the diabetic condition.
Great praise for this book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
After hunting through many diabetic books for a gift for a friend of mine, I finally chose this one. My friend called me immediately and said it was the best gift she had ever received -she had read it backwards and forwards and had even highlighted it. She said it was extremely helpful (she is dealing with her diabetes naturally after experiencing prescription side effects) and is putting it's advice and recipes to use daily.
The Diabetes Inprovement Program
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book was a quick and easy but valuable read.It addresses diabetes in understandable terms, explains the glycemic index, discusses nutrition (diet), excersise, and the useful addition of nutritional supplements in the diabetic diet. It notes a group of what the author defines as 'Super Foods' which can have profound positive bearing on the diabetic status, and includes a small selection of recipes. The book also contains a very useful section that address 25 different sweeteners; basic and comparative information I have sought after for some time - all nicely compiled in one place.I feel the information provided in this book on nutritional supplements, sweeteners and 'Super Foods' make it a valuable resource for anyone with diabetes or anyone responsible for providing meals for diabetics.
