Product Description
Until Dr. Barnard’s scientific breakthrough, most health professionals believed that once you developed diabetes, you were stuck with it—and could anticipate one complication after another, from worsening eyesight and nerve symptoms to heart and kidney problems. But as this groundbreaking work reveals, this simply is not true. In a series of studies—the most recent funded by the National Institutes of Health—Dr. Barnard has shown that it is possible to repair insulin function and reverse type 2 diabetes. By following his scientifically proven, life-changing program, diabetics can control blood sugar three times more effectively than with the standard diet; and cut back on and in some cases eliminate medications while reducing the risk of diabetes complications. "The long overdue epic scientific breakthrough in diabetes is here…an obvious must-read for health professionals and for diabetic and potential diabetic patients." —Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., MD, preventive cardiology consultant, Cleveland Clinic "This is the approach to follow…the clinically proven way to get your blood sugar under control… and start living again."—John McDougall, MD, founder and medical director of the McDougall program "Dr. Barnard’s book is no exaggeration…The signs and symptoms of diabetes can be reversed, and he’s got the evidence to prove it."—Jennie Brand-Miller, PhD, author of The New Glucose Revolution |

The Way to Treat Diadetes by John V. Forrest (SAN DIEGO, CA United States)  5 Stars
November 04, 2009
Neal Barnard's book is an offshoot of an NIH funded controlled study in which he compares clinical results in patients who have followed his low fat vegan diet with those in patients who followed the ADA (American Diabetic Association) diet.
Patients following the low fat vegan diet had much better control of sugar levels, weight and diabetic complications. Perhaps surprisingly, ease of following the diet was also better for the low fat vegan diet since part of that diet was a high quantity of satiating low fat food. Many patients on this diet were able to eliminate all anti-diabetes medications.
Barnard also cites others' research using similar diets for diabetics. One particularly remarkable result was in diabetic neuropathy which can present as pain, often severe, in the region served by nerves damaged by diabetes. In two weeks 17 of the 21 patients had total relief and the other 4 had noticeable improvements.

Don't leave home without this book by Ace (East Coast) 5 Stars
September 26, 2009
I should buy two of these books -- one to keep in the kitchen and the other one to bring with me when I travel.
Not only is this book "empowering" but it is also a life (and possibly limb) saver. It is logical, sensible, filled with extremely helpful facts and basic scientific information about the inner workings of diabetes and other physical processes connected with it. Dr. Barnard (who is a great speaker by the way) educates and informs the reader with information that is easy to assimilate and at the same time, demystifies the "patient/doctor" relationship, even though this "relationship" is in the form of a book.
Nutritional guidelines as well as a good basic explanation of specific diabetes medications, are all extremely helpful.
The charts are very useful, the recipes are plentiful, and while I cannot tolerate things like nutritional yeast and certain spices mentioned in these recipes, I can still utilize (and in some cases, modify) many of these recipes.

Dr. Barnard's Program for Reversing diabetes by Thomas P. Papazoglou 5 Stars
September 23, 2009
A very practical and enlightening book on a great healthy nutritional plan, not just for diabetics (I am not diabetic). A surprisingly easy plan to follow because it never leaves you hungry and you still lose about a pound/week, with lower blood pressure, and lower cholesterol.

Proof is in the pudding by Mary J. Stumpf (AZ.) 5 Stars
September 23, 2009
I have been on this diet for 6 weeks. I have lost 17 lbs and reduced my insulin by a third.This really works for me. I feel great and am very seldom hungry. The recipe's I have tried are very tasty and I don't miss the meat. I am not against animal Protein as a food source but I do think each person needs to find what works for themselves. I am anxious to get my labs done for my next Dr. visit mid Oct. when I will have been on the diet for 9 weeks. Think they will be much improved. Thank you Dr. Bernard
