From the "New York Times" best-selling author of "The Metabolism Miracle", here comes a breakthrough carb-control diet for the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes - more effective than the ADA programme. Diane Kress' "The Metabolism Miracle", a "New York Times" bestseller, was a revolutionary and phenomenally popular approach to weight loss.
Now, she offers her breakthrough diet for the prevention, management, and reversal of type 2 diabetes with minimal to no need for medications. When Kress, a registered dietician and certified diabetes educator, developed type 2 diabetes, she realised that the 'status quo' nutrition programmes just didn't work. She then set out on her own research. The result is her 3-step, scientifically based, carb control programme that's easier to follow and more effective than any other. The American Diabetes Association recommends a meal plan that's 50 to 55 per cent carbohydrate - which eventually can only speed up the pancreas burnout and insulin resistance.
In contrast, the first phase of the "Diabetes Miracle" recommends only 5 grams of carbs in any 5 hour period - allowing the pancreas to 'reset' and retrain itself to react normally to blood glucose changes.
