The huge and growing problem of type 2 diabetes already affects 10-20% of the population in many developed countries. Millions more are in the early stage of the disease (a condition called prediabetes) or are at high risk of developing it within 5 years. This book is designed to be a resource for such people as well as their relatives, friends or carers who want to help them cope with diabetes. This is a fully comprehensive and easy to understand book that provides evidence-based guidelines, advice and tips about coping with type 2 diabetes and guidance on how it can be reversed and put into remission. It is written with the vast majority of the prediabetic and type 2 diabetic adult populations in mind. The book describes the signs and symptoms of type 2 diabetes, how diagnosis of the condition is confirmed, and how it is treated and managed. It explains the causes and serious health consequences of type 2 diabetes and how people with the condition can reduce their risk of complications. The key to curing type 2 diabetes is weight loss and the book provides guidance on methods of achieving this goal both safely and effectively by adopting a unique personalized weight loss plan that involves multiple diets in combination with enjoyable and exhilarating (but not exhausting) exercise. It does all the above by educating the reader about the basic underpinning science and giving suitable, understandable examples of the supporting evidence followed by clear recommendations and advice. It empowers and motivates the reader to modify their current lifestyle for the better and – if there is sufficient motivation to do so – how they can get rid of the condition for good, improve their quality of life and actually live longer.
