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.
