5.0 out of 5 stars Healing Gourmet by Dandona, December 26, 2005
This review is from: Healing Gourmet Eat to Beat Diabetes (Paperback)
Early stage diabetes can be managed easily with a disciplined
approach consisting of diet control and daily exercise. The
authors point out that an increase in blood glucose damages
nerves. In addition, the BMI or Body Mass Index is a good
indicator of the optimal weight loss objective to achieve for
dieters. The plasma/glucose ratio should be well under 126 after
8 hours of fasting.

The book identifies optimal foods for dieters and persons
desiring to control sugar. These foods are as follows:

- low glycemic index foods are all bran, lentils, nuts, soy,
yogurt, most fruits and veggies, beans, brown rice, pita bread

- red grapes, celery, green tea, berries, bulk, soy and flaxseed

- Omega 3 fats reduce inflammation

- Vitamin Biotin,Ca., Mg., B1 , 3, 6, 12,Folate,A,C,E, Se.



The acquisition would be perfect for a wide constituency of
health professionals and dieters everywhere. It is a solid
value for the price charged.
