Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A breakthrough method-grounded in almost 100 years of scientific research-to master all types of diabetes by reversing insulin resistance.

In Mastering Diabetes , Cyrus Khambatta, PhD and Robby Barbaro, MPH, explain why the current medical advice to eat a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet improves short-term blood glucose control but increases the long-term risk for chronic diseases like cancer, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, chronic kidney disease, and fatty liver disease.

The creators of the popular Mastering Diabetes Method lay out a step-by-step plan proven to reverse insulin resistance-the root cause of blood glucose variability-in people with type 1 and 1.5 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, and gestational diabetes, while maximizing your life expectancy. Armed with more than 36 years of personal experience living with type 1 diabetes, the authors teach you how to eat carbohydrate-rich whole foods like mangoes, potatoes, and quinoa while decreasing your blood glucose and medication requirements.

With more than 30 delicious, filling, and nutrient-dense recipes and backed by cutting-edge nutritional science, Mastering Diabetes will help you maximize your insulin sensitivity, attain your ideal body weight, improve your digestive health, gain energy, live an active life, and feel amazing!

Includes index.
