A Great Reference for Diabetics,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Taking Control of Your Diabetes (Paperback)
This book is jam packed with all kinds of useful information about every aspect of living with diabetes. It is well written and from a diabetics perspective. I found the book very empowering. I am keeping a copy on my bookshelf for reference. I read it last month and have already referred back to the book 3 or 4 times to look something up. Buy a copy that is new since you will want to keep it on your reference shelf.
