Given that Diabetes 2 is escalating year on year, wouldn't you have thought that by now, there would be an alternative way, a better way of preventing it in the first place? The alternative is following the 'Chemical Alley' approach of a lifetime on drugs and insulin injections? My weight loss alone speaks for itself. Highly recommended. I also have his wife's cookbook: The 8-week blood sugar diet Recipe Book, by Dr. Clare Bailey with Dr. Sarah Schenker.

Absolute rubbish most ingredients from America as is method. Fine if you like cauliflower rice, and like mushrooms meat etc. Can afford tread mill and exercise bike and have the time to spend your days exercising, meditating, cooking and sourcing ingredients. Couldn’t find much I would eat. Have done better using Wii fit and adapting recipes I have. Complete waste of money

I bought this book as my husband is diabetic and wanted to contriol his sugar levels without taking tablets. This book is I formative in a manner that is easy to read, avoiding technical language and lots of boring facts. The balance of information and facts is good, keeps you reading and not skipping through or giving up altogether. The facts helped me formulate my own opinion, make sense of it and want to crack on with some recipes. My husbands sugar levels seem to be responding to the changes in diet we have made as well as losing a few pounds too, This is WELL WORTH TH MONEY and the read. Good luck everyone.

I hadn't known that it was possible to reverse diabetes, and cannot say that it will work, however I am giving it a go. The book makes sense, although trusting that full fat milk, yoghurt and cream are okay, is a leap of faith. Everyone tells you LOW FAT is better for you. This book is really about cutting out sugars, which are even in "healthy" cereals, and cutting out carbs as much as possible. I have literally only been on this new way of eating for 3 days, and have lost a few pounds, which I know is mostly water, he tells you that, but am hopeful of a good outcome. He also warns of negative reactions, which has also happened already! I think it is definitely worth a read.

This is a good informative book although does follow a predictable format. My main issue is if you actually look at the work of Professor R Taylor the aim is not to eat any sugar. Not to carry on with the controlled state nearly all doctors advocate of balanced food to medication. Surely those who seek this book have one aim. To stop eating sugar. There are many different strategies offered on how to control your diabetes* and I have tried a few until I came across the work of Professor Taylor at NewCastle Univerity* and realised combined with my own understanding of diabetes, my work with a wide range of age groups as a Counsellor that for me the <1g rule works. Something I wish to share. I felt there needed to be a simple realistic and achievable method to cognitivly and behavourally help me and hopefully others control their diabetes in a non judgemental way. We are who we are not what we are labled. The less than 1g< rule simply put anything with more than 1g of sugar on the label of contents is not eaten. What is 1g, three sugar lumps. Go to your cupboard take out some tins and this is what you may find. Plum Tomatoes has 13.6g of sugar per tin = 40 sugar cubes Baked Beans has 19g of sugar per tin = 57 sugar cubes and Tinned Chilli has 12g of sugar per tin = 36 sugar cubes. I doubt anyone would put 40g of sugar in a bowl and eat it. Read full review
