CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 4.0 based on 28 reviews)
| Helped me to understand diabetes better.  I was diagnosed a month ago with type 2 diabetes. Although I have a very mild form of it and my doctor is hopeful that it can be reversed I was terrified. I didn't want to go down the road of amputations, blindness, and kidney disease. That's when I found this book. I have a better understanding of diabetes now and a low glycemic diet makes perfectly good sense to me. I've been eating a plant based diet for a month and have lost 21 pounds and my blood sugars are normal.
There are quite a few reviews that say diabetics need to avoid carbohydrates-that's horse and buggy thinking. It is now known that diabetics need carbohydrates-it is the fuel that our bodies use. What diabetics need to change is the source of those carbohydrates. The less refined food we eat the better blood sugar control we have. As Dr. Whitaker says it's not the quantity of carbohydrates it's the quality. So those people with negative reviews either haven't kept up to date with the latest diabetes information or they didn't read the book. I'm even going to send this to my sister whose diabetes is out of control. Maybe it will help her as it's done for others. May 23, 2008 | | amazon: ripoff extraordinary  book was quoted to me at one price, billed at a higher price. i cancelled order but amazon shipped it any way.
i couldn't understand return instructions so i wrote amazon twice. weeks have gone by with no response.
i got in touch with dhl and they instructed me how to return book. good thing cause amazon couldn't be bothered.
i returned the unopened package. the box was crushed so badly dhl couldn't scan the shipping label.
haven't heard a word from amazon until this review solicitation.
bottom line is don't do business with amazon they are a ripoff and are clueless as how to properly do business.
thank you for you time January 14, 2008 | | Reversing Diabetes  I am very satisfied with the book. I have lowered my blood sugar by more than 100 points with the information provided in the book.(watching what I eat as well as a regular exercise program) Thank You
January 08, 2008 | | Comprehensive & Helpful  After just being diagnosed with Type II Diabetes, I was looking for information. This book was extremely helpful. A must read for those who want to take on participation in improving their own health! November 24, 2007 | | It Works!  I found the book to be informative on many things I hadn't known, including helping me understand the mechanism of diabetes itself. Clear, simple language made it a lot easier than I thought it would be.
I followed the menus and recipes completely, which turned out to be somewhat difficult as i had never previously used so much fresh produce, and it takes longer to prepare than tossing something in the microwave or stopping in at a fast food place. I was never hungry, however, and my craving for sweets disappeared during the first couple of weeks.
It has a great resource section.
The single most important thing about the book? It worked for me. October 05, 2007 | |
