30-Day Diabetes Miracle February 11, 2010 M. Ackley As a Health and Wellness Coach I found this book to be a great encouragement for those with diabetes themselves or in the family. The information is well written and documented. The recipes are excellent tasting and well balanced. I highly recommend this book to those without diabetes as the principles apply to other chronic diseases as well as those without overt disease.

Nothing I didn't already know December 17, 2009 J. Goldfaden (Long Island) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I ordered this book with a lot of hope. What I found was very general information that could be found anywhere. Being a vegetarian, there were no surprises...but what really bothered me was that there were no recommendations for allowable amounts...the key to bringing your diabetes under control is the right amount of calories, carbs, fat and protein all within the day...this book did not even suggest how to do this. I did plenty of reading on the internet..looking up glycemic index, diabetes food allowances and created a list of yes and no food...I kept track of the number of carb PORTIONS per day(15 carbs = a portion) the number of fat portions per day (5 grams = a portion of which 2-3 servings are tops) and it is always good to have some protein with meals...Diabetics don't often realize that fat is as bad for you as sugar...and, this book strongly recommends beans which can, for many diabetics, raise your sugar...so I would suggest that you do lots of reading, make sure that you put together a diet that will work, long term, for you..with foods you will enjoy. It is truly possible to turn your diabetes around...to get your numbers under control and enjoy eating...this book disappointed me...
Good information, but nothing new October 30, 2009 Mark Walker (Cincinnati, Ohio United States) 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
This book is useful for people that don't know much about diabetes, but is mainly the "diet and exercise" program that most diabetics already know about. They do not address the topic of nutritional supplements and vitamins/minerals that are useful in controlling blood sugar levels. There is some useful information, guidelines and recipes, but a lot of this is common sense or common knowledge.

Some Helpful Information September 21, 2009 Book Lover (Montana, USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a pretty good book in many ways. For me, the program is too hard with regard to eating strictly vegetarian. I need to have a little animal based protein here and there. That said, I found the excercises and the rest of the book to be quite helpful. This is a very worthwhile read for anyone who has Diabetes.
