HomePage:http://www.diabetes-book.com/(Thanks to innerbalance)520 pagesPublisher: Little, Brown and Company; Rev Upd edition (March 22, 2007)Language: EnglishISBN-10: 0316167169In these pages I attempt to present nearly everything I know aboutblood sugar normalization, how it can be accomplished and maintained.With this book, and with the help of your physician or diabeteseducator, I hope that you will learn to take control of your diabetes,whether it’s type 1 (juvenile-onset), as mine is, or the much morecommon type 2 (maturity-onset) diabetes. To my knowledge, there isno other book in print addressed strictly to blood sugar control forboth types of diabetes.This volume contains much material that may be new to manyphysicians treating diabetes. It is my hope that doctors and health careprofessionals will use it, learn from it, and do their best to help theirpatients take control of this potentially deadly but controllabledisease.Although this book contains considerable background informationon diet and nutrition, it is intended primarily as a comprehensivehow-to guide to blood sugar control, including detailed instructionson techniques for painless insulin injectionand so on. It must, therefore, leave out other related issues (such aspregnancy), some ofwhichrequire their own volumes.
