Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This book should be given to every person who is freshly diagnosed with diabetes! It's a great guide and overview as to what kind of life you, as a diabetic, should start living. Much as I appreciate the information my doctor and pharmacist gave me (I was diagnosed with Type II two weeks ago), it was not as comprehensive or insightful as this book is when it comes to describing the day-to-day lifestyle I need to adopt. There are four chapters (nutrition, mindset, exercise, sleep) packed with plenty of good and useful information. I'm now striving to limit my meals to 30g of carbs each, get in 10,000 steps/day, ensure I give myself enough time for some quality sleep each night, and apply other lessons from this book. If you've recently been diagnosed and you're wondering what to do next, you need to read this! Update: 19.Aug.2018. I was diagnosed in January with Type II and an initial A1C of 10.1%. Re-tested in March and it had dropped to 7.3%. Off to a great start thanks to the information in this book and just enough self-discipline to adhere to about 75% of it (I exercise about 3-4 times a week, and after some initial discussion with my doctor and pharmacists I eased up to 45g of carbs per meal--but I still made great progress). My most recent test was in July, and I'm very pleased to report my A1C is now 5.4. Thank you, Adam Brown, for putting me on the right path to controlling this disease!
