2 out of 5 starsI agree with B Real, 2008-12-04
I agree with "B Real". The brand names mentioned in the tables are very useful if you live in Australia. The authors also seem to think that aspartame and sucralose are harmless and stevia is bad. They should read "Sweet Deception" by Joseph Mercola and "Excitotoxins, The Taste That Kills" by Russell Blaylock.

Total waste of cash.

Was recommended by some diabetes blog or column.

What were they thinking? Answer: Not much.

Glycemic Index listed mostly prepackaged foods THAT I NEVER HEARD OF and the first 95% of book is rehashed drivel.

What we need is an updated Glycemic Index with values of 'real food' and a healthy dose of restaurant, and prepackaged foods.

Dr Atkins... we miss you.

5 out of 5 starsVery informative book, 2008-11-16
I just found out I was prediabetic and ordered this book. I couldn't have asked for a more informative and helpful book. It answered all my questions, and I would highly recommend this to everyone with questions about prediabetes and diabetes. It fully explains the glycemic index with examples.

5 out of 5 starsSimple and useful, 2008-07-01
I'm newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I bought this and another book after checking the web for diet guidlines and mostly finding "eat healthy" or "buy my pills." The most helpful parts of this book for me are

Diet - Remember serving size. A high glycemic index isn't bad if the serving size is small. This is the difference between glycemic load (what a serving will do to your blood glucose) and glycemic index (what a 'standard ammount' would do). And a little sugar is o.k. (I eat 1-2 Dove dark chocolate pieces after dinner.)

Exercise - Maximum improvement using insulin to process blood glucose with minimum perceived effort comes from walking 40 minutes every other day.

It's been 6 weeks since I started taking meds and about a month since I started following the exercise and diet suggestions. All my blood glucose readings for the last two weeks have been under 125.

Expanded and improved. Information and recipes are improved in scope. Wish more data on common US brands were available. [...] I have usewd this diet for 7 years with excellent chemical and well-being improvement.
