Diabetes

"Brooklyn Borough President and mayoral candidate Eric Adams is on a mission to tackle one of the most stubborn health problems in the country: chronic disease in the African American community. African Americans are heavier and sicker than any other group in the U.S., with nearly half of all black adults suffering from some form of cardiovascular disease. After Adams woke up with severe vision loss one day in 2016, he learned that he was one of the nearly 5 million black people living with diabetes-and, according to his doctor, he would have it for the rest of his life. A police officer for more than two decades, Adams was a connoisseur of the fast-food dollar menu. Like so many Americans with stressful jobs, the last thing he wanted to think about was eating healthfully. Fast food was easy, cheap, and comfortable. His diet followed him from the squad car to the state senate, and then to Brooklyn Borough Hall, where it finally caught up with him"--

Diet Stacking is the silver bullet in the quest to find a long-term solution to weight loss. Diet Stacking allows for a continued burst of motivation (motivation that often fades when a single diet is used alone). By stacking the best scientifically proven weight loss diets, you can reap the reward of each diet-weight loss, better health, disease prevention, and more-without the motivational struggle to adhere to the same strict dietary rules for weeks, months or years.The choice to use the term "stacking" in the name Diet Stacking is an important one. In essence, you "stack" diets one after another no different than you would stack building blocks. One serves as a foundation for the next, and in the process, you achieve better results than you would using a single diet alone. Diet Stacking: -Disrupts the normal dieting process-Increases motivation-Delivers quick weight loss that lastsTake the First Step and Find Your Stack!

House-training the Diabetes Monster is for anyone concerned with type II diabetes, either for themselves or someone close to them. It is written from a successful health coaching perspective, where the author simplifies our basic physiology as it relates to diabetes. He then outlines the steps he uses in helping his clients either avoid, control, and best of all reverse type II diabetes. He guides the reader through six easy steps to get their disease under control followed by four more steps to take total control back. The authors lifelong passion has been health and nutrition. After many years working as a CEO and Chief Technology Officer, he changed careers and became a Certified Health Coach through the Integrative Institute of Nutrition. "The strategies I successfully use as a health coach are outlined in this book, starting with getting your mind right about the required changes, learning the basic's of how your body metabolizes carbohydrates, and a new outlook on food." Many doctors have encouraged Grant to write this book, including the two who's quotes endorsing the book are seen on the back cover. According to Dr. Jonathan Paul Navar from Texas Tech University Health Science Center, he says "Finally an approach that gets to the cause of this disease. As a practicing Primary Care Physician I manage and treat diabetes daily. I wish I had two hours per office visit to spend reading House-training the Diabetes Monster with all of my diabetic and pre-diabetic patients. This book helps people to understand diabetes, helps set them up for success, and provides the tools necessary to conquer the diabetes monster. I recommend it to all my patients and I use the nutritional principles detailed in this book to treat and reverse diabetes in my daily practice." Q: Why did you write a book about Diabetes? A: I've lived a life surrounded by diabetes. I don't have it, but I watched my father become a type II diabetic when he was in his late thirties and I was six. His disease progressed quickly and complications started despite his trying to follow his doctor and nutritionists advice. What I've learned was despite their best intentions, they had no idea how to treat him. With advances in research, we know the cause of type II diabetes and that it is controllable and even reversible in many instances. What's the point of having great science if we are not going to use it? Q: What makes you qualified to write such a book A: Health and nutrition has been my life's passion. After holding a number of 'C' level jobs, I enrolled and became a Certified Health Coach through the Integrative Institute of Nutrition. I love working with people and while the 'C' level jobs were rewarding, nothing tops helping someone overcome type II diabetes. The strategies I use are outlined in this book, starting with getting your mind right about the required changes, how to heal your body, and a new outlook on food. Q: Why should someone read this book? A: It is written for everyone to understand. The physiological factors behind type II diabetes are very complex, but I have made them very easy to comprehend. You really need this basic physiology to grasp what goes on inside your body when you eat something. I've also made it easier to differentiate between carbohydrates by categorizing them into good, ok and bad. I've done the same with fats. Good fats, which I call body friendly fats, are society's most maligned food, mainly because people don't know how to differentiate between them and bad fats. This knowledge is critical in order to live a healthier life. I've broken my strategies into two sections, first is the easy steps which includes learning a new mindset towards food, how best to fast, and which supplements to take. When the reader is ready, the section on taking on more includes how to restore your gut health and about cholesterol ratios.

I give you this book with my love and hope. There are way too many people suffering from Diabetes unnecessarily. Another title, "I Want To Live" is the same as this book, except it contains pictures of the recipes. I created this one for you at a lower cost, so more people could get it and get healthy faster. Please don't wait; you life could depend on it. I went from a 9.1A1C to 5.2 in one year. If you're serious about living a happy, healthy life, read this book and do the work. Please! I wrote it all down FOR YOU.

Type 1 Diabetes and Babysitting: A Parent's Toolkit gives you the ability to fill in specific information about your child and thoroughly train your caregiver. Information such as: - How to give shots - What to do with a high or low blood sugar - Troubleshooting pumps - Meal and insulin planning Along with step-by-step instructions covering all aspects of your child's care, we've included pull-out pages for a babysitter and sleepovers. Overwhelmed. That's the feeling of a parent whose child has just been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. The days that follow are a blur of handouts, booklets, phone calls, notes scribbled after conversations with doctors and nurses. We stuff these papers into some sort of homemade binder or folder, hoping they will cover all the bases of emergencies and critical situations. The worst possible scenarios are always in the back of our minds. We quickly become experts at diabetes care for our kid, and things like "diabetic ketoacidosis" and "basal rates" and "rapid acting insulin" don't give us pause. It hits us: how can we possibly feel comfortable leaving our child with anyone else besides a doctor, a nurse ... anyone medically trained? We're afraid to ask someone to watch our child because of the complex care involved. In reality, we are asking a lot. We are asking someone to be levelheaded enough to make decisions about a disease that is completely unpredictable. On the other hand, we want our kid to be "normal" and stay at a friend's house. As parents, we need and want to take a break, but when you're afraid of leaving your child in someone else's care, Date Night goes by the wayside. How do we navigate sleepovers, day care, play dates, and trips to Grandma's house? What if there was something geared toward a teen-aged sitter? Or a grandparent? Something in layman's terms that a person not immersed in the world of diabetes could understand? Type 1 Diabetes and Babysitting: A Parent's Toolkit is the only comprehensive guide available that is user friendly and completely adaptable to a child's specific needs. Julie Marmon, M.D. says, "This book provides parents a method to convey crucial data and not worry that important details have been glossed over. The step-by-step instructions and flow charts with areas to personalize, streamline care and remove fear from a situation which may be scary for sitters and family members. Great work!"

French people use the term thin diabetes (diabète maigre) to refer to type 1 diabetes: the severe, incurable form of diabetes mellitus that tends to strike children. French people use the term fat diabetes (diabète gras) to refer to type 2 diabetes: the milder, reversible form of diabetes mellitus that occurs in overweight people. In this fascinating book, Laurie Endicott Thomas provides clear and often surprising explanations of why people get diabetes, and what they can do about it. Diabetes does not result from eating too much sugar and starch. Type 2 diabetes results from eating too much fat, and type 1 diabetes results from a problem in the immune system. Type 2 diabetes is not really a disease. It is a defense mechanism. If you have type 2 diabetes, you are a naturally thin person, and your body is willing to sacrifice everything to keep you from gaining even more weight from a diet that is too rich in fat. The solution to this problem is to a low-fat vegan (purely plant-based) diet. Such a diet reverses type 2 diabetes and helps to improve the health of people with type 1 diabetes. If an entire family adopts this diet for the benefit of a diabetic family member, everyone will benefit! This book explains how to use food to fight diabetes. It even includes meal planning tips and quick and easy recipes.
