Product Description

Product Description

With prediabetes at epidemic levels, millions of people are being told by their doctor to take personal action now, before it's too late. Prediabetes Wake-Up Call provides the newly diagnosed patient with detailed information about the threat of type 2 diabetes while explaining the lifestyle changes that will lower the risk of prediabetes developing into diabetes.

Prediabetes Wake-Up Call describes the facts about diabetes and includes assessment checklists and charts to help readers identify areas of relative risk. Then the author details specific strategies to address each risk factor, including weight management, exercise, and food choices, plus less-obvious strategies such as formulating new attitudes towards healthy living. Written for a lay reader, Prediabetes Wake-Up Call offers guidance, sets goals, and provides the reassurance necessary for readers to start getting healthier today.

Informative but limited in its reach. 22 Mar 2007
By Melinda Brewer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book does have some good information, but in my opinion, it's only suitable for someone who knows absolutely nothing about diabetes or health in general, and who doesn't consider himself a "reader." The tone is a bit patronizing, as if the reader is in grade school, and the cars & travel analogy is distracting & overdone.

A Must Read 26 July 2006
By Meems - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Simple, easy to understand. Answers all your questions about pre-diabetes and how to avoid it becoming diabetes. Explains the repercussions if you don't take steps now. You come away with full knowledge of what steps you have to take.

A must 23 Sep 2006
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
What's the difference between 'prediabetes' and all-out diabetes? Can a diagnosis of 'prediabetes' be reversed? These and other questions are answered in a survey which includes an overview of diabetes risks and health factors but provides a welcome focus on the state of health which leads into diabetes. Chapters explain blood sugars, risk factors, and provide a plan to avoid developing diabetes. This should be a 'must' for any overweight person, or those with a family predisposition to diabetes.
