A book that helped me control my Diabetes

This book was so informative. It detail what the effects of diabetes are and how to adapt your life so that this very treatable disease will not overtake you. The writer of this book are the leading expert for Harvard Medical school and a hsuband of a diabetic.They discuss diet, what to expect from doctor,monitors, medication, diet, complications and what to expect if you do and don't take care of yourself. I suggest this book for anyone who deals with diabetes on a regular basis or wants to find out more. This book si great for both type I and Type II diabetics. Ignorance of diabetes is not bliss, this book can scare you at first if you are just dignosed, but the information in this book will help you find the courage to find a good doctor ! and control this disease.

Great reference for new diabetics on all major topics

This is the first book on diabetes I have read since I was diginosed with diabetes. It is a great reference book with a philosphy that diabetes is to be controled by you and not you by it. It covers all types of diabetes, treatment, insulin, diet, exercise, complication, pregnecy, and how to deal with your new cronic disease so that one can live a full life. I recomend this book for all diabetics because of the source, the ease of understanding, and the professionalism of its approach as well as it has tons of useful information. E. J. Boehm
