A Must Have for the newly diagnosed diabetic,
By A Customer
This review is from: Diabetes Type 2 & What to Do (Paperback)
When first daignosed as a diabetic--about 3 years ago--I was at a loss for a good reference book. This book is great, it's straight forward, easy to understand and made learning about my disease simple. The book is written in an easy to understand question and answer format written by 3 experts, at least 2 of which are diabetics. I gave my original book away to a friend and now wish I had kept it. I learned so much from it, here I am ordering it again.
5.0 out of 5 stars
