The Other Diabetes is highly regarded as a clear, no-nonsense resource by people who use this book for answers about late-onset diabetes. "Diabetes" is no longer a scary word. The book shows how to manage diabetes, not with insulin injections, but with diet, exercise and proper levels of oral medication.
The Other Diabetes is usually kept on the kitchen counter for its tasty recipes and quick reference. Note: A decrease in cell function and subsequent decrease in insulin secretion by selected cells of the pancreas characterize late-onset or type-2 diabetes. Remedy or control does not require injections of insulin. As our population ages, the prevalence of this disease is increasing. The remedy is weight control, exercise and proper diet. |
