If you've been diagnosed with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, it's easy to think, "How did this happen? I watched what I ate. If only I had tried harder, eaten fewer calories and burned more." But you're not alone, and it's not your fault. Many traditional diets can actually promoteinsulin resistance over time because they don't take into account your different metabolism. You may be one of the millions who have Metabolism B (metabolic syndrome), an inherited condition that can cause your body to overreact to carbohydrate foods, release excess insulin, and gain body fat--and eventually develop type 2 diabetes. The good news is that you can take control of your diabetes, starting today. When registered dietician Diane Kress herself developed this condition over a decade ago--despite following the ADA-recommended dietary guidelines--she realized that the "status quo" nutrition plans just don't work for everyone. In The Diabetes Miracle, she identifies the reason why. Now, she shares the groundbreaking 3-step program that she has created for the prevention and management of this progressive, potentially fatal condition. It's the miracle diet and lifestyle plan that thousands of her patients have been successful with--and that Kress personally adheres to today, controlling her diabetes without medication. Now you can get the facts and eat to treat the root cause of type 2 diabetes. With The Diabetes Miracle, you can expect to:Correct your body's insulin imbalance naturally and stop the progression from Metabolism B to prediabetes to diabetes"Rest, reset, and retrain" your pancreas to process carbs and react more normally to blood glucose changesLose weight and keep it off--especially the love handles and excess back fatGet the best blood sugar readings you have experienced since your diagnosis on the least amount of medicationHave more energy, sleep great, look younger, and feel healthierGain control of type 2 diabetes on an easy, livable programThis diabetes bible provides clear details about the disease itself, the newest parameters for diagnosis, and preventing complications.
