diabetes diet Books
by T. Colin Campbell, Thomas M. Campbell II
Amazon Price: $11.86
Customer Review: An imperative read for any clinician or or anyone wanted to sort thru the garbage fo nutrition information, here is the eral science from THE investigator of key nutrition science in America
by Gary Taubes
Amazon Price: $18.45
Customer Review: What I found most fascinating in this very thick and technical book was how the personalities wielding the "science" made the difference in where we, as a nation, ended-up today. It was almost "riveting" to read about how one scientist could get a huge audience with a weak theory and no evidence, while another scientist with a decent theory and plenty of evidence couldn't get anyone of any prominence to even comment. It made me wonder about a lot of what we take for scientific "truth" today. Hanging on to your pet theory to reduce cognitive dissonance is, I'm sure, as popular today in all science as it was shown by Taubes to be in the last hundred plus years of nutrition science.
What I thought about, but wasn't mentioned in the book, was that carbs have a long shelf life, good for an era when the Soviets were pointing nukes at us (and we were convinced that they might just push the button). Another thought that occurred to me that helped explain the cascade of ideas toward the "low fat" chasm is that lots of people, not just vegetarians, think it's sort of gross to eat animals. So not only did we have supposed "scientists" with their pet theories, we also had a lot of people that "wanted to believe" because it made them feel safer or less like a beast. We are where we are. We can only hope that more people accept the research Taubes presented, and act accordingly.

Customer Review: I was very happy with this cookbook. The recipe are simple and made with REAL food.
by Franklin House, Stuart Seale, Ian Blake Newman
Amazon Price: $16.47
Customer Review:
I started the diet on 4/5/08 after spending a week reading the book fully. In December of last year I was taking 110 units of insulin a day. While my doctor was happy with my control (A1c 6.4) and management of the disease, I was not. I felt too heavy and I felt I was getting progressively weaker. My heart was not doing well and I had frequent and painful angina. I was taking a lot of heart medicine (Norvasc, Benicar & hydrochlorothiazide).
I have severe neuropathy in both feet, including a wound in my left foot that will not heal and a diabetic foot disease called "Charcots Arthropathy". I suffered a "focal neuropathy" that paralyzed my right side for 3 months and has left my right leg weak. My walking is very restricted. Diabetes has also taken my left eye. I suffered several hemorrhages, due to retinopathy, and now I am blind in my left eye.
I only bring these symptoms up to show that my diabetes was advanced and acute. I was forced to retire and go on disability at age 49.
I found the recipes easy to prepare and delicious. The closer you follow the diet the better your results will be. Remember, this is a lifestyle change, not a diet. It only works if you stick with it for the long term. If you return to the same diet that brought about your diabetes in the first place the diabetes will come back.
A word of caution on this point, your blood sugar level may come down very fast. I took my regular dose of insulin on day 1 and by 10:00 pm I was at 57 and beginning to feel the effects of low blood sugar. Test your blood often and have your doctor reduce your insulin dose before you start.
I stopped taking insulin altogether on day 15. I have not taken an injection of insulin in the past 25 days. My blood sugar level has stayed in the normal range. My doctor was amazed at the results. He tells me that he is telling all of the other doctors that one of his patients was able to cure his acute type 2 diabetes. He took down the information about the book and he says he is going to buy and read it and recommend it to his other diabetic patients.
I have lost a total of 24 pounds in the last 40 days. My blood sugar is normal without insulin and I have never felt healthier.
Good luck and best wishes.

by Gretchen Becker
Amazon Price: $11.86
Customer Review: After going through several books and websites I found Gretchen's book to be the best organized, most clearly written, and most important, not at all dumbed down for the masses. The book presents a smart combination of what you need to know about your day to day life with Diabetes together with detailed scientific/medical information. For me, that made all the difference. For the first time I was starting to understand what this disease is about and make some sense of the myriad of treatments, diets, medications, tests, tools, and whatnot. Gretchen manages to compose a book that's smart but not theoretical and contains information that is actually useful for making better choices in your life. In addition, the book has a good number of categorized and annotated references allowing you to explore further whatever topics interest you the most (up to and including nutritional biochemistry).
by Dr. Jennie Brand-Miller, Kaye Foster-Powell
Amazon Price: $6.99
Customer Review: This was an interesting book but the downside was the products you would find at a grocery store were Canadian products. Products in the USA do not have a GI listing.
by American Diabetes Association
Amazon Price: $5.95
Customer Review: Truthfully, this book is so thin that it is a waste of $5.95...Go to the library and check out something similar for free and photocopy what you need...I will never use the book I bought -- same info is readily available online and elsewhere.
by Richard K. Bernstein
Amazon Price: $19.79
Customer Review: It was only through Bernstein's book that I was able to appreciate the importance of maintaining a low carbohydrate diet if I were to ever achieve "normalized" blood glucose and hope to avoid the long term complications associated with the disease. Bernstein, first trained as an engineer, later as an M.D., offers a wonderful "nuts and bolts" approach to maintenance of diabetes whether type 1 or type 2. His standard of control set the bar high where, in my opinion, it needs to be. I wish that my Father, who died of diabetes complications, had been privy to his approach and had available to him the instant test methods for blood glucose that are now available.

by Jessica K. Black
Amazon Price: $10.17
Customer Review: The association between chronic inflammation and disease has been revealed and is continually supported by research studies. Naturopathic practitioner, Jessica Black, has identified foods to eat and foods to avoid that will keep us from unnecessarily over stimulating our immune systems and causing unhealthy, disease-provoking inflammatory responses.
The book begins by explaining why an anti-inflammatory diet is beneficial, providing scientific support. The book continues with what foods to eat and what foods to avoid, as well as 108 recipes. There is also a week of sample menus for summer months and one for winter months. The recipes use anti-inflammatory foods while excluding common allergens and inflammation-promoters.
An anti-inflammatory diet should emphasize pineapple, most fruits (though limiting citrus), vegetables, garlic, ginger, turmeric, flaxseed oil, nuts (not peanuts), seeds (sesame, pumpkin, sunflower), flaxseed oil, olive oil, and filtered water. Additional good food choices include: flaxseeds, avocados, fish (salmon, cod, haddock, halibut, mackerel, sardines, tuna, trout), whole grains (amaranth, spelt, barley, buckwheat, millet, oatmeal, quinoa, basmati, brown rice, rye), legumes, beans (black, pinto, navy, mung), split peas, curry, and tofu (or better choice fermented tempeh or miso.) Inflammation-promoters include wheat products, dairy products, corn, peanuts and peanut butter, sugar, fried foods, foods containing hydrogenated oils, processed foods, alcohol, juice, coffee, caffeinated teas and sodas, potatoes, tomatoes, pork, nonorganic eggs, shellfish, and citrus fruits (except lemon).
Dr. Black also has many healthy hints such as:
For cooking use Coconut oil rather that Canola oil, which is toxic.
Choose yams and sweet potatoes rather than potatoes and tomatoes.
Avoid wheat.
Choose fermented soy products such as tempeh and miso rather than tofu.
Avoid shellfish such as shrimp, crab, lobster, clams, and mussels.
Limit citrus except lemon.
Limit dried fruit
Use quinoa to thicken soup rather than oats.
Use split peas, barley, or navy beans rather than lentils.
This book is full of information in this important area of inflammation and disease. Highly recommended! A great companion book which has similar foods to emphasize and avoid and that is exceptional for weight loss is THE 3:00 PM SECRET: Live Slim and Strong, Live...

Amazon Price: $10.17
Customer Review: I purchased this book because I felt that my diabetes was starting to control me instead of me controlling it. The recipes are easy and delicious too. I strongly suggest this book to anyone who wants to eat healthier.
