THE US EDITION OF THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
A momentous medical breakthrough --a scientifically proven program for managing and reversing Type 2 Diabetes at any stage of health.
The fastest growing disease in the world, Type 2 diabetes has long been regarded as an incurable, lifelong condition that becomes progressively worse over time, resulting in pain, loss of vision, amputation, and even premature death. But there is hope.
For more than four decades, Dr. Roy Taylor has been studying the causes of diabetes. In 2017, he had a breakthrough: he found scientific proof that Type 2 diabetes is not only reversible, but that anyone following a simple regimen can prevent and cure it. Dr. Taylor's research shows that Type 2 diabetes is caused by too much fat in the liver and pancreas, which interferes with both organs' normal functioning. By losing less than 1 gram of fat, the liver and organ can begin to perform as they were designed to once again--thus beginning the reversal process.
The most efficient way to shed fat from the liver and pancreas is to lose weight as quickly as possible. Life Without Diabetes makes it easy for people to cut back on their daily calorie intake and avoid the two big problems of dieting--hunger and choice--and lose up to 35 pounds in just eight weeks. Thanks to Dr. Taylor, we can now fundamentally change how we treat and prevent this debilitating and all-too-common disease forever.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
"After years of studying the causes of diabetes, in 2006 Professor Taylor and his team at Newcastle University finally found the "missing piece in the scientific jigsaw," a Eureka moment that launched a multi-million-dollar trial involving 280 type 2 diabetics from around the United Kingdom. In 2018 they published the life-changing results. In this book, Professor Taylor presents the definitive guide to understanding and reversing type 2. In simple and accessible language, he deconstructs the complex workings of the body as an energy system, illustrates how our modern lifestyle has interfered with the mechanics of this process and offers a surprisingly simple solution in the form of the 3-step program he developed with his team of researchers, also known as the 'Newcastle Diet.'"--Provided by publisher.
