Editorial Review:
An estimated 41 million Americans have the condition identified since 2002 as prediabetes, which, if left unchecked, inevitably will lead to full-blown diabetes. From one of the world's leading diabetes "patient-experts," this first-ever practical guide offers fifty essential, informative ideas and simple steps to help this vast and rapidly growing constituency manage their condition and thereby reduce their chances of developing full-blown diabetes. Prediabetes clearly explains what readers can do today, no matter what their age, and whether or not they have a family history of diabetes, a severe weight problem, or are members of an ethnic group at high risk--including Hispanics, Native Americans, African Americans, and Pacific Islanders. Helpful drawings and graphs are featured throughout in this new, revised edition.

general book on prediabetes:
This book is a little dated now but has very good medical inforamtion about prediabetes and what causes it. for someone who is not overweight and always ate at least somewhat healthily, it was a shock to get the diagnosis. This book explains the genetic component better than other materials I've read.

A year+ later, and after following both the author's and NutriSystem's guidance, I'm at 185 lbs or less with a glucose score of 96. Works for me. Not Helpful:
This book is essentially useless. It is filled with silliy things like "learn to read food labels" (duh), "listen to music while you excercise", "spend some time with elderly people" (I am elderly).more info Worthless:
I bought this book after reading the definitive text on blood sugar, The New Glucose Revolution, and I almost chucked this in the trash. The author actually says "any diet" is good for preventing diabetes - low carb, or low fat, or low glycemic or anything else. All you need to do is find "one that works for you." Following that advice, many people may do themselves harm. Not all diets are the same, and someone trying to avoid diabetes needs to eat those foods that will specifically not spike their blood... more info Accessories:
