Summary: 4 Stars
This book is a good source of information for a person newly diagnosed with Diabetes. I recommend it!!Book Review: Very Misleading Book
Summary: 1 Stars
This book didn't give enough information, and it was very misleading.
Look for Dr. McDougall's books on Amazon. Or, if you google Dr. McDougall, you can go to his website and see what he has to say about diabetes. Numerous studies show about 75 percent of type 2 diabetes is completely curable - within 10 days - by changing your diet. Period. You can come off all medication and insulin. He gives the information you need, completely free, on his website. Use his method, and you'll soon see your blood sugars return to normal . . . but then the various companies that make a fortune off diabetes will suffer.
Another thing about this dummies book: It's chock-full of ads. The author heavily peppers his writing with all sorts of product endorsements and gets kickbacks for them.
You might want to read Dr. Neal Barnard's Dr. Neal Barnard's Program for Reversing Diabetes: The Scientifically Proven System for Reversing Diabetes Without Drugs before you jump to conclusions. He is president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (a nonprofit organization with a lot of highly respected members.) He has a lot of respectable physicians endorsing his work. I encourage anyone reading this to search for his book on Amazon. You'll find it doesn't have any ads and no kickbacks from the big drug companies like the "Dummies" books.
Book Review: not worth the money
Summary: 1 Stars
This cook book is just not worth the money. Not only are there very few recipes but the ones they do have are a bit too exotic with specialty ingredients. I was looking for every day recipes, things normal people eat and can eat each and every day
