Smart Blood Sugar - Second Edition

Loved the book. Started following it the day I got it, and it is working! Bought a second one as a gift.

My son has had Type 1 diabetes for 9 years and is managed by one of the top juvenile diabetes doctors at Childrens Hospital in LA. She does not know what she is doing. I’ve been desperately seeking help from nutritionists and this doctor about what to feed my son. She would say avoid cakes, sodas, cookies and eat complex carbs like wheat bread. She also said he can eat whatever else he wants as long as he covers his carbs. I’ve read countless other books and articles and still my sons diabetes A1C just keeps going up and she changes his ratio so he gets more insulin per carb.This book EXPLAINS WHY THIS APPROACH WAS NEVER GOING TO WORK. It explains in simple language what to eat , what to cut out, and tells you why. I read it to my children each night and quiz them on it. It’s the BEST thing I have found to treat my sons diabetes ever. His doctor has been useless in coming up with answers. I first saw this book advertised on another doctors website but decided to order it on Amazon in case I didn’t like it and it’s an easier return. 10 STARS IF I COULD!

It could be a little more clearly written, but is informative. I don’t know how effective the dietary changes are yet.

Great info

This book is way over priced for the amount of information provided! Most of the information is already available with a few internet searches, and about two thirds of the book's info is given in the free video presentation. However, the last third of the book does give some good info about foods we have been trained to think are bad for us, that are actually healthier than the alternatives we've been taught to supplement with. As well as some good plans to help reduce blood sugar levels and make life style changes. Because that's really the only way us type 2's are going to improve our blood sugar levels without drugs.

This was advertised on line and felt we wanted to be getting the facts quickly before the problem gets worse

Wasn't as advertised. Didn't give me any more information that I didn't already if and wasn't worth money.

This is the book help me to get control of my sugar and carbs. It all makes sense!
