Dr. Neal Barnard’s Program for Reversing Diabetes: The Scientifically Proven System for Reversing Diabetes without Drugs
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

Dr. Neal Barnard’s Program for Reversing Diabetes,
Great Program with scientific evidence that will help most all diabetics. Have been on this program for 5 weeks. Within the first week my blood glucose levels dropped 15-20 points. In the last four weeks I have maintained within 80-110 on my morning checks. Have used many of the recipes and amazingly am not hungry at all. I have eliminated the nightly dosage of Metformin. My goal is to eliminate all medications. The American Diabetes Association should rethink their diet plans.

|Diabetes Diet,
The reviewers who blame the author for not mentioning exercising in his book are absolutely wrong. Of course exercising is good for one’s overall health but it is completely outside of the scope of this book. The author specifically talks about ways of reversing diabetes with a proper diet instead of using drugs. There is a whole range of other positive things that you can do to improve your overall health but this book is not an encyclopedia of natural health but a program for reversing diabetes.
And what an interesting and effective program that is! This is a book about a great healthy nutritional plan not necessarily for diabetics only. It is a surprisingly easy plan to follow as it never makes you hungry but you will end up with a lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol level, and also lower body weight. The recipes are tasty and they don’t result in the feeling of meat deprivation, which is a good prerequisite for keep the diet for a long term, hopefully for life…
Dr. Barnard in a respectable American scientist. His book is well researched and his system is scientifically proven to bring good results. Yet as the same time, the book is free of doctor’s jargon and is easy to read.
But Dr. Barnard is not alone in his approach to treating diabetes. In the book Cure th e Incurable, a renowned Russian scientist writes the following in the chapter about diabetes:
“Thirty or forty years ago, when we didn’t have today’s abundance of highly processed refined food, deli products, (…) diabetes was a rare disease. People who got it were usually advanced in years and their pancreas wasn’t efficient any longer due to old age. (…) We know that our digestive system, if fed natural non-processed food, can produce all hormones necessary for our body. It means that we can get rid of diabetes by putting some efforts into our diet…”
For those who would like to read more about not only the ways of treating diabetes but also other so called “incurable” diseases, and for ways of keeping the body fit and healthy in a natural way, in addition to above mentioned book I also suggest reading Live 150 – Your Body Maintenance Handbook.

|A Diabetic’s Best Resource and Companion,
The newly diagnosed diabetic often feels as if he or she had been plunked down in front of a circus tent, complete with three rings, sideshows, barkers, and scary clowns, only then to be told “okay, pal, start making choices!”
Many patients flee. Others roam around frightened and vulnerable.
Dr. Rubin, however, clearly, calmly, and intelligently guides the patient in this book through the chaos and confusion of the diabetes care circus. He really makes sense out of what is available. The book is unfailingly clear.
I was also impressed with his anecdotes, drawn from his practice, about the emotional experiences of his patients, and with his tips on how to cope with setbacks, glitches, and successes.
Many books on diabetes lecture the patient. In this book, diabetics will find a physician-author who does not lecture and who is not afraid to evaluate treatments and approaches. He seems intent on helping diabetics, and their families and caregivers, return to wonderful lives.
Get your physician to read it too.

|Great Book,
OK. Hubby’s just been diagosed with type II diabetes. Go the to library and get a million confusing books. I don’t have time for this. No, wait, there’s GOT to be a “Dummies” book on this subject. Amazon.com – “Diabetes for Dummies” – BINGO! Aaaahhhh, all the information I need in an easy-to-understand format.
The only problem we found in this this book is that the calculation for body mass index (BMI) was a bit confusing, and some of the websites have changed, but the rest of the book was EXTREMELY helpful and presented in a non-threatening way.
Knowledge is power and banishes fear. This book helped save my sanity.
Also, when I had a question, I sent an e-mail and got a prompt response from Dr. Rubin himself!
