Dr. Neal Barnard's Program for Reversing Diabetes: The Scientifically Proven System for Reversing Diabetes Without Drugs
Synopsis
If you have diabetes, you likely have been told that it s an irreversible condition. For years, the conventional medical wisdom has been that in cases of diabetes, insulin production has become permanently dysfunctional. But as Dr. Neal Barnard shows in his groundbreaking book, this is simply not true.
In a series of studies, Dr. Barnard has found that it is possible to repair insulin function and reverse type 2 diabetes. By following his scientifically proven, life-changing program, you will be able to control your blood sugar three times more effectively than with the standard dietary regimen for people with diabetes.
With Dr. Barnard s program, you will eat regular meals throughout the day, building each meal around his New Four Food Groups: vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and legumes. This new style of eating will improve how your body responds to insulin thereby reversing the defining symptom of diabetes.
By closely following Dr. Barnard s program, you can:
Cut back on diabetes medications, if not eliminate them completely
Reduce your risk of diabetes complications
Realize bonus health benefits as you take off unwanted pounds, lower your cholesterol and blood pressure, and boost your energy
Enjoy delicious foods in generous portions
Diabetes is no longer a condition that you must just live with. It need not slowly and inevitably get worse. If you have diabetes, now is the time to take control of the disease and take back your life.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Until now, most health professionals have considered diabetes a one-way street. Once you developed it, you were stuck with it--and you could anticipate one complication after another, from worsening eyesight and nerve symptoms to heart and kidney problems.
Enter Dr. Neal Barnard, who through a series of groundbreaking studies, the latest funded by the National Institute for Health, has shown it doesn't have to be that way. By following the diet outlined in this book, readers can control blood sugar three times more effectively than with the American Diabetes Association's diet and beyond that improve their bodies' ability to respond to insulin--in effect reversing the defining symptom of the disease. And there's more. Study participants lost weight, were able to cut back on and sometimes even discontinue medications, and left behind tedious exchange plans for delicious foods in generous portions.
It's a new way to treat diabetes.
