The media is full of diabetes books and diabetes treatments that claim to ‘cure’ diabetes
This usually amounts to a hollow promise at best, or a cynical marketing ploy at worst.
Defying convention
Conventional medical lore dictates that type 2 diabetes is irreversible. However, the author of this diabetes diet book attempts to prove that this is not the truth.
Barnard uses a series of trials to indicate how it is (theoretically) possible to repair insulin functioning within the body, even leading to a reversal of the type 2 diabetic condition. It is the aim of this book to show the reader how.
Scientifically proven
Barnard’s programme is described as ‘scientifically proven’ and ‘life-changing.’
Diabetics who undertake the Barnard diet will eat regular meals consisting of fruit, whole grains, pulses and vegetables – known together as the New Four Food Groups.
Four food groups
This promises to improve the way in which the body responds to insulin with the introduction of high-fibre, low GI foods.
Reverse type 2 diabetes
Whether or not Barnard’s system really reverses type 2 diabetes remains to be seen – and it is worth every diabetic remembering his or her individual dietary needs.
