A revolutionary new low-carb diet for diabetics by the doctor who pioneered a successful new approach to the disease--with 100 original mouth watering recipes. For diabetics, diet is more than a lifestyle choice--it*s the key to controlling the course of their disease. Many diabetics struggle their entire lives to maintain a healthy weight, but the guidelines given to them by the American Diabetes Association have proven unhelpful in regulating blood sugar--the critical component in keeping diabetes in check. In THE DIABETES DIET, Dr. Bernstein serves up the groundbreaking low-carbohydrate approach to diabetes care that has enabled his patients to take control of their disease by regulating their blood sugar without the usual swings. Dr. Bernstein himself is living proof of the success of this method, and he has the science to back it up. Plunging into the current debate on low-fat vs. low-carb diets, he shows that, especially for diabetics, low-carb is what will change lives--and he offers 100 delicious all-new recipes to help keep diabetics on track for life. The recipes and advice in THE DIABETES DIET will provide readers with an easy-to-follow guide for controlling their disease and regaining their health and well-being. * There are an estimated 18 million diabetics in America, and their number is increasing every year--yet there are no low-carb diet books appropriate for diabetics. * Since publication in 1997, Dr. Bernstein*s Diabetes Solution and its revised 2003 edition have sold more than 120,000 copies. * An engineer by training, Bernstein pioneered blood glucose self-monitoring and the tight control of blood sugar that is now accepted as the standard treatment of diabetes. He entered medical school at the age of 45 in order to publish his findings.

This book tells about the issues and how to beat them. Plus you will come away feeling like diabeates is just a little hurdle - if you follow the lifestyle. If not you sunk anyway.

Reviewer: Justin W,
I enjoyed this book a lot and have tremendous respect for the work Dr. Bernstein has done and is doing. I think this book is a must-read for diabetics or anyone who is interested in getting their blood sugars stabilized.
I only rated the book 4 stars because I there are some issues that really need to be improved upon. The organization of the book is a little cumbersome and the writing style needs to be tightened up a bit. I think Dr. Bernstein's book could have benefitted greatly from the services of a good professional editor who is a better wordsmith than he is. Having said that, what do you expect? The man's an engineer and a doctor...not Shakespeare. ;)
Life saver

Reviewer: Sandy Parker,
This way of eating has saved my life. A few short months after reading the other book by Dr Bernstein my A1C went from 12 to 5.4 and my fasting blood glucose went from 250 to near normal.
Too wordy
