My Bible tooMar 28, 2007

I got this book as a present when I was diagnosed with Type II Diabetes and I have found the information in there invaluable. It is easy to understand, well written for the lay person and most of all has simply awesome recipes in it.
I have had friend and family diagnosed after I was and I have gotten each of them this book. Make a great beginning to any diabetic library.

The Diabetic BibleMar 22, 2007
By P. Hogue My mother was just diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and she had a million questions which I couldn't seem to find sufficient answers to on-line. I purchased this book and she's been reading it for the past week and says it has answered every question she had about diabetes and how she should be eating. She's going to be talking to a dietitian soon and wanted to have a general understanding of the disease. She highly recommends this book to anyone with diabetes.

This book is well worth the money!!Nov 13, 2008
By AthenaRose
"Staci"
I got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes about 2 months ago. I wanted to know more about diabetes so I got this book. It's very informative on what diabetes is(very detailed) It's written in a clear manner. It has information on how the different diabetes medications work, it has a nutrient counter(which basically tells you how much carbs are in certain foods which is good to know), the complications that might happen if you don't get your glucose under control, why you must test frequently, and of course recipes. If you buy one book to help you understand being a diabetic chose this one!! It's the best one I've seen so far. I gave this book 4 stars because on pg. 73 it says this"To know what food causes your glucose to rise eat what you want, in whatever amount you desire." This is not good advice because if I did this my glucose would be over the 200 range. But still all in all it's a great book and I'm glad I bought it. If you are looking for easy diabetic recipes I really like Dawn Hall's Busy People's Diabetic Cookbook. The recipes are really good.

"Wonderful Book"Feb 28, 2012
By Debbie Johnson "OMG" this book is so very much better than I thought it was going to be. To say I love it is very much an understatment. It answered so many questions I had, and so many questions I had thought about but never thought to ask. To top it off it has wonderful recipes in the back, some of which I have already made. The Browned Pork chops with gravy is "AWESOME" and the chicken with Spinach & celery hash. is to die for. This book is also a great book for anyone with Diabetes or anyone who wants to eat healthly. "GET THIS BOOK" You will love it.
