Until now, no book or long-term research (nearly forty years) has conclusively demonstrated that diabetes complications can be avoided for such a prolonged period of time.
Diabetes Without Complications is the first book written that explores nearly 40 years of a person's life with diabetes and shows how diabetes complications have been avoided, including valuable lessons learned. The second half of the book contains information for building a successful diabetes management program.
The book covers type 1 and type 2 diabetes, pre-diabetes, and preventing diabetes and helps the reader build a program to avoid or reduce the risk of getting diabetes complications or delay progression of existing complications. The book includes the two measurement standards for serum blood glucose levels: (mg/dL) and (mmol/L). Body weights and heights are provided in their metric and non-metric equivalents.
Diabetes Without Complications was peer reviewed by top medical specialists and medical professionals. It was also peer reviewed by persons with diabetes and those whom had no knowledge of diabetes, including people with a wide variety of educational backgrounds: from high school education only through various college degrees and levels, including Master and PhD. Extensive medical and scientific references are documented throughout the book.
The book includes the author's most recent and comprehensive medical records (with notations) to help readers understand the basic medical tests that are essential for any successful diabetes management program. Readers can discuss the tests with their physician(s) to determine applicability for their own diabetes care.
For persons with existing diabetes complications, the book provides valuable information that could help delay further progression.
