Prediabetes Wake-Up Call: A Personal Road Map to Prevent Diabetes

When my doctor told me my blood glucose level was above normal, I was absolutely stunned -- and panicked. This book was a tremendous help as far as getting informed and taking proactive measures. My glucose was much lower after taking this advice, and it has stayed there. DO also read about glycemic index and especially GLYCEMIC LOAD (great resources online, especially) and learn what foods are your friends. Your glucose level is quite manageable if you learn the basics and find the discipline to develop a new lifestyle. GOOD LUCK!

What's the difference between 'prediabetes' and all-out diabetes? Can a diagnosis of 'prediabetes' be reversed? These and other questions are answered in a survey which includes an overview of diabetes risks and health factors but provides a welcome focus on the state of health which leads into diabetes. Chapters explain blood sugars, risk factors, and provide a plan to avoid developing diabetes. This should be a 'must' for any overweight person, or those with a family predisposition to diabetes.
