ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
Until Dr. Barnard’s scientific breakthrough, most health professionals believed that once you developed diabetes, you were stuck with it—and could anticipate one complication after another, from worsening eyesight and nerve symptoms to heart and kidney problems. But as this groundbreaking work reveals, this simply is not true. In a series of studies—the most recent funded by the National Institutes of Health—Dr. Barnard has shown that it is possible to repair insulin function and reverse type 2 diabetes. By following his scientifically proven, life-changing program, diabetics can control blood sugar three times more effectively than with the standard diet; and cut back on and in some cases eliminate medications while reducing the risk of diabetes complications.
"The long overdue epic scientific breakthrough in diabetes is here…an obvious must-read for health professionals and for diabetic and potential diabetic patients." —Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., MD, preventive cardiology consultant, Cleveland Clinic
"This is the approach to follow…the clinically proven way to get your blood sugar under control… and start living again."—John McDougall, MD, founder and medical director of the McDougall program
"Dr. Barnard’s book is no exaggeration…The signs and symptoms of diabetes can be reversed, and he’s got the evidence to prove it."—Jennie Brand-Miller, PhD, author of The New Glucose Revolution

"I must say that this latest information based in clinical research was a life saver. Generally I am a little leery of the medical "system". So I started this book with an attitude. I soon saw that the book is so well written and the information so practical, I knew I had found the information needed to help with this diabetes. I found that, based on previous information, I was heading down the wrong path. I have been using Dr. Barnard's program and experiencing wonderful results. I highly recommend this book."

"i awaited the book with impatience. i am a type 2 diabetic and looked forward to new insights and suggestions i could use.
the explanations are probably good, but nothing new if you have read up on the condition. The program basically consists of eliminating all animal products, and reducing use of oils (and peanut butter). in fact, to me, a vegan diet, a switch i am not willing to make. i expected more of the book.

"This is a good book, but I like Eat to Live (2003) or Eat For Health (2008) by Joel Fuhrman, MD better. Both doctors recommend a low fat, vegan diet, but my sense is that Dr. Fuhrman has better basis for his recommendations and his information is more up to date."

"My husband is a Type 2 diabetic and although he controls it well, just as this book pointed out, the current diet and treatment are only slowing down the erosion of his health from the diabetes. The research and studies that Dr Bernard shares in the book gave us a much clearer understanding of what diabetes is, how it affects the body and what is the causes of the different types of diabetes.
The diet that Dr Bernard's research has come up with may seem extreme to someone who has been following the typical high protein diet that the medical community endorses, but if you can have quality of life as you age, avoiding blindness, kidney failure and a host of other health problems by following Dr Bernard's recommended diet then I think it's worth trying.
