Book Reviews of Preventing Type 2 Diabetes: Beyond Diet and Exercise

Book Review: Excellent guide to prevent Type 2 Diabetes
Summary: 5 Stars

Dr. Hilkovitz gets right to the point in clear, easy to understand language. The book addresses who is at risk and what the very real benefits are to take action early to identify and prevent Type 2 Diabetes 10 to 15 years before it occurs. It goes well beyond the simple diet and exercise regime and gets very specific about the latest medical treatments and drugs available. I especially like the layout of the book. The use of highlight boxes is very effective. His personal real life examples make the book interesting and relevant.

I would recommend this book to anyone who feels that they may be a candidate for Type 2 Diabetes or may know someone who is.

Summary of Preventing Type 2 Diabetes: Beyond Diet and Exercise

Dispelling the notion that diabetes is just ?too much sugar,? this handbook examines the metabolic syndrome (pre-diabetes), lists appropriate diagnostic tests, and describes medications for multiple interrelated conditions. Accompanied by narratives throughout to enhance the understanding of the text, this reference details factors such as the difference between type 1 and type 2 diabetes, the five major symptoms, common complications associated with the disease, risk factors, and preventive measures. Written with the layperson in mind, this primer will also serve as a useful reference for the medical community.
