Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Because diabetes (DM) can be an overwhelming metabolic disorder, diabetics are uncommonly concerned with every aspect of their health. This book is unusual because Juliano has been coping with his DM for 30 years and is blind as a result of complications from diabetic retinopathy. However, as he states, each case of DM is uniquely related to the individual's genetic makeup. Overall, the single biggest medical problem in treating DM is patient compliance. Drawing from his own experience, Juliano emphasizes issues faced by male diabetics and how they need to learn and maintain positive attitudes to cope more successfully with the disease's progressive nature. A good purchase for consumer health collections.?James Swanton, Harlem Hosp. Lib., New York

This book is a wonderful compilation of the healing arts!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Diabetic Male's Essential Guide to Living Well (Hardcover)
Dr. Juliano's book was quite a pleasant surprise for me. This book covers an array of very important diabetic issues that are discused in a very intelligent format. Dr. Juliano is an Endocrinologist and a diabetic himself. This first hand experience from the age of 15 allows Dr. Juliano to share personal knowledge based on his own trial and error. The discussion of new and alternative treatment methods is what makes this book great. Dr. Juliano incorporates traditional western medicine with Nutrition and Acupuncture. By pointing out that Western medicine, Nutrition, and Acupuncture should be used together to improve a condition is a quantum leap for health care. Unfortunately most medical doctors have no understanding of nutrition and proper vitamin/mineral supplementation. This lack of knowledge limits the treatment options medical doctors offer us. It is quite refreshing to read a book by a medical doctor that addresses alternative medicine. This book is a wonderful compilation of the healing arts!

The Book is a Tour de Force,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Diabetic Male's Essential Guide to Living Well (Paperback)
Excerpts from a letter from Dr. John P. Cooke, MD., Ph.D., to the author. Dr. Cooke is an Associate Professor of Medicine and is the Director, Section of Cardiovascular Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine:...I have to tell you that I learned a great deal. I read your book at one sitting, on a flight today to give a talk in the Midwest. I learned a few things from you which I will begin to incorporate into the care of my diabetic patients, and into my advice to my diabetic father. I found most touching the passages describing your own struggle with diabetes, and quite compelling your anecdotes regarding friends and patients with diabetes. In your next book, these anecdotes should be increased in frequency throughout the text to improve readability for the lay person. This book is a tour de force, and I congratulate you. I look forward to the sequel... Chapter 12 is outstanding. I was transfixed by the description of your personal experience with a severe diabetic complication... I enjoyed your section on nutrition and dietary supplements. You may wish to expand this section, and perhaps work with a dietician on some suggested menus for diabetic patients. I enjoyed your chapter on diabetic impotence, and chapter on diabetic feet... Joe, congratulations on a superb book. I admire your drive to help others with diabetes, and your tenacity to complete this book. Thanks again for allowing me to read it. I will recommend it to my diabetic patients. John Cooke

Dr. Joe is a "Rock of Gibralter" for all diabetics.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Diabetic Male's Essential Guide to Living Well (Paperback)
In Dr. Juliano's books, whether we are male or female, (female in this case) we are taught to live healthy lives. As the expression goes, "It takes one to know one." Either sex should carefully read the information in this powerful book. We are all living together with diabetes and must learn from each other. Thank you Dr. Joe!!!
