Let's face it - The countries with the highest rates of diabetes have high protein/fat diets. I'm not aware of any large cultures that have eaten high protein, high fat, low carb diets. The elite in ancient Egypt, Babylon, Greece and Rome seem to have done. Although there is evidence they, the kings and queens, nobles, priests, suffered many of the same health problems we have.

I read this book. I believed what he said. I followed his suggestions and lost 75 pounds. My diabetes has been reversed. This is a good book.
I'm a soon-to-be former type 2 diabetic, couch potato (those of us who read a lot), who has been on this vegan diet for the past 46 days. The results: I have LOTS of energy. I no longer have cravings for meat, sugar, dairy products or fast foods. I've lost 22 pounds- 2 pant sizes, and I feel GREAT!! I exercise: brisk 40 minute walk every day with a little jogging up the steep inclines. This diet is also recommened by Dr Dean Ornish who claims this vegan diet reverses heart problems. I can believ...more

I don't have diabetes. I won this book as part of a package in a fund raising auction.
I found it to be very interesting.
One current theory for the genesis of food allergies is that 'leaky guts', porous intestines leak out proteins from our food before those proteins have been broken down into amino acids. These proteins then get out into the blood where the immune system is alerted to them, thus triggering an autoimmune response.

I have finished this book but have been on the program about two weeks. The changes are already noticeable and encouraging. I have lost some pounds, and my blood pressure is much, much lower than it was before I started. I don't see much effect in my glucose readings, but as the fat goes down, the weight goes down, and as the weight falls, so will the blood sugar measurements. I have been aware of my type 2 diabetes for maybe 3.5 years, and having attempted some incremental changes, with corresp...more

Although very repetitive, this book is very informative for diabetics and really anyone thinking of switching to a vegan diet. I highly recommend it for people who have diabetes and have struggled in the past with different diets to bring their blood sugar down. The author of this book is a physician who has actually performed research studies which have been published in peer reviewed research journals and hence shares with the reader his findings and the findings from other research studies as...more

Thank you, Dr. Barnard, for explaining how intracellular lipids seem to be the cause of Type II diabetes. It's always great to come away from a book feeling more empowered. Since I have a rational reason for eating lower fat now, it's much easier to stick with. I don't have diabetes, but I'm on the road to it (I have insulin resistance despite eating what I thought was a decent plant-based diet for 6 years: plenty of beans, whole grains, avoiding ALL added sweeteners both in my cooking and in pa...more

A wonderful book suggestion (and gift) from my sister. Even if you don't fully embrace the vegan program suggested here, this book is wonderful for helping you to understand the science behind diabetes and how to take active steps to control its progression and even reverse it. I have incorporated a lot of the changes suggested in this book and have seen incredible results in weight loss, decrease in neuropathy, and decrease in blood glucose levels. I haven't gone vegetarian yet, but I have dram...more

The best health book I've read, period. This clear, concise explanation of how and why your body rejects certain foods and thereby develops diabetes helped me understand how to control my diabetes for years with Dr. Barnard's diet recommendations. I highly recommend this book to anyone with diabetes or anyone in danger of developing diabetes.

Great information, lots of good, easy to understand science. Really did clear up so many questions I had about Diabetes. Just not enough here to be a whole book. Like Dr. Esselstyn's book on reversing heart disease, this is about 40 - 50 pages of great content, repeated a couple of times. I feel like it would have made a great pamphlet. Also, again like Esselstyn's book, I feel like these Doctor's are overreaching with their recipes. I called Esselstyn's recipes the red onion cookbook (there was...more

An incredibly empowering book for those encountering diabetes. I have been implementing the principles in here and have started to see fantastic results. I do quibble on the idea that one has to switch diets completely and suddenly. I can see the reasoning. However, I myself encounter far more trip ups and falls of the wagon when I go through such abrupt changes. Nevertheless, I am nearly completely vegetarian now and seeing great strides, not miniscule changes, in my over all health. I expect t...more

Great and inspiring work... in my opinion, the science to back the goal to lose weight and avoid or reverse diabetes. My husband and I are following this program as much as possible and are feeling much better, sleeping better and feeling hopeful about our futures without diabetes. Lots of delicious recipes included in this book by Dr. Barnard, who I admire greatly.

Dr. Barnard recommends a low fat vegan lifestyle to reverse diabetes.
You have to be in the right frame of mind to enjoy this book.....either you or someone you know has diabetes, you're interested in diet/health, and/or you are exploring the possibilities of a vegan diet.

I love cheese too much to live lowfat vegan... sorry. Read Susanne Somers diet book. It takes nearly the opposite approach for diabetes. Who knows...
I'm glad I decided to read this. I feel like it's helped me better understand diabetes. It's well written full of information but not to scientific. The diet sounds like something I could possibly do and several of the recipes at the end sound really good.

I found this book a well-written and well put together package overall, but it was very similar to other books Dr. Barnard has written. Basically, it recommends a diet that is vegan, low-fat and high-fiber. The concession to the diabetes aspect is that there is a greater discussion of the GI index and a recommendation that you choose foods lower on the GI index.
Dr. Barnard also states that it is not necessary to be a great cook to follow his plan, and that he himself dislikes cooking, but then t...more

This book was so informative and convincing that I decided to follow Dr. Barnard's advice. I have now decided to go vegan/low fat. I was already vegetarian, had been for a couple decades now. But cheese and snacks have been my downfall every time I attempted vegan. I am determined to not fall down there again.

I have type 2 diabetes and am overweight. That puts me in the target audience for this book. The book is not really for type 1 diabetes, which seems to be an autoimmune disorder and not reversible.
I rated this book as only 3 starts because I think the doctor glosses over the difference between type 1 and 2 diabetes, and also seems to downplay the impact of blood sugar spikes after meals. It is probably true that getting the fat out of your body will allow your body to process carbohydrates (sug...more

The science is really fascinating. I’m working to reverse my husband’s Diabetes. So far he has lost 12 pounds, lost all signs of neuropathy and has tons of energy. Just waiting for blood tests in November to confirm that we are on the right path. It was supposed to be a 3 month test for us, but I can’t see us ever going back to the standard American diet!
My parents recommended this book and I really got a lot from it. I would recommend this book to anyone even if you don't have diabetes.
He is so positive and hopeful, all represented in an ethical and healthy (but fun!) lifestyle / diet.
Highly recommend for anyone with diabetic issues. Solid science proving that you can reverse diabetes without drugs or loss of limb!
The advice in this book works. If you're willing to become vegan, you can control your sugar!
12 years ago when this book was written this information may have been new. Since the passage of time many of these suggestions have been adopted by nutrition experts. A vegetable and fruit diet is the most common place among people who want to improve their health. I started to read this book because I wanted to see what his idea about reversing diabetes was all about. I figured it was food related and in many cases I agree. I looked at some of the reviews before constructing this one and I do...more

I read the book and skimmed what was pertinent to myself. I'm dancing on pre diabetes at this point in my life and I'd like to turn it around. The theory behind the concept of reversing diabetes 2 or pre diabetes to normal blood sugar levels by way of diet only is to purge the fat out from our muscles that interferes and blocks insulin uptake. Essentially his theory is that by eliminating fat in our diets and only relying on trace amounts of fat from vegetables, legumes, etc it de-gums the locks...more

Good clear explanations, backed up by good research findings. Good at explaining what the issue is and what can be done about it, and why the average western diet (especially the average American diet) is not terribly healthy.

Anyone with diabetes or prediabetes would benefit from reading this book. Dr. Barnard recommends a vegan low-fat diet to help your body heal itself and supports his recommendations with scientific studies. Yes, the book is a bit repetitive if you read it from start to finish--he's going to hit on his steps several times throughout the book--but for some people, the repetition does help to ingrain the ideas in their minds.

To those hearing diabetes mellitus (adult-onset, insulin-resistant or Type 2) can be controlled, reversed or even cured, the news, at first, seems incredible. Diabetes is a disease, they say to themselves, and most diseases are difficult to treat, and frequently impossible to reverse.
Happily enough, that information is completely antiquated and flatly incorrect. As Dr. Barnard and other physicians have demonstrated repeatedly, the condition of diabetes mellitus has a basic cause, and a remedy. T...more

The whole foods, plant-based diet is really one, and the principles were defined for all time by T. Colin Campbell, but it pays to listen to the individual clinicians for their specific research and experience. For diabetes, this is the go-to book, and some of the fine points for diabetics are worthwhile.
If you plan to tackle your diabetes with the whole foods, plant-based diet, you should study this book and give it to your doctor, if he or she is not already on board. And, if your doctor is no...more
