This review is from: 101 Foot Care Tips for People With Diabetes (Paperback)
As a healthcare professional who lectures on foot health, I found this book to be concise and to the point. The potential effects from lack of proper foot care are not soft peddled. The steps to take for preventive foot care are written and organized in an easy-to-digest manner.With managed care taking it's toll on the time allotted for doctor visits, our patients need to become better informed. "101 Foot Care Tips" will help diabetics and their families know when to seek urgent treatment for what may seem to be a minor foot problem, hopefully, before infection and possible amputation become a real threat. As The Foot Nurse, I whole-heartedly recommend this book!

"Must" reading for all diabetics and their loved ones.,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: 101 Foot Care Tips for People With Diabetes (Paperback)
101 Foot Care Tips For People With Diabetes is an excellent self care guide and reference for diabetics and their caretakers. Questions about exercise, the relevance of blood sugar control, nail clipping, choosing appropriate footwear, what to do about ingrown toenails, and preferred forms of exercise with diabetic foot complications are answered. All questions are succinctly explained with authority. Types 1 and 2 boxes at the top of the page tell if the question refers to both or either types of diabetes. Amusing illustrations lighten the tone and pique interest. Chapter 11 lists additional resources valuable to the diabetic. 101 Foot Care Tips For People With Diabetes is a good manual for any diabetic. Its brisk, no-nonsense explanations of complex interrelationships of diet, exercise, skin care and health management are presented in unavoidably clear lay terms.Nancy Lorraine Reviewer
