I would highly recommend this book. I lost 15 pounds in less than 2 months by eliminating excess sugar from my diet.

Help for Diabetes IIMarch 11, 2008 S. K. Morris(Corpus Christi, TX) This book was recommended by my doctor since I was starting to show I was borderline diabetic. Basically, it helps you change your eating habits and to choose foods that are better for you and make you healthier.
A keeper - and good reference bookFebruary 18, 2008 Suzanne Saunders(Rocky Mountains USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Among all the books on diet and health that I've acquired over the years, this a sure-fire keeper. I'll hang onto my copy after I've sold or donated the others to clear shelf space.
The explanations of the biochemistry involved are easy for me to understand (and I'm no science major - not at all!). The book also has some resources I've turned to repeatedly, including glycemic index numbers for common foods and lists of recommended and not-so-recommended foods. I have turned to other sources for glycemic index/load numbers for additional foods that aren't listed here; a lot of that data is available online now.
This book does not present an extreme all-or-nothing fad diet, but explains why some carbs are better than others, and why it's better to avoid blood sugar spikes and crashes. I only wish I'd read it years ago.
