Book Info Wanted

[prozacwoman]

Hi all! AJ here. I'm interested in getting some books; so far, I have on my list: Dr. B's Diabetes Solution, and Dr. A's Diabetic Revolution. Are there any other diabetic "bibles" out there that I can't do without?

I'm not diabetic...YET. But I'm pretty sure I'm on the line, and I don't want to go there. I did have gestational diabetes with both my pregnancies, and it does run in my family, so I want to get a handle on it NOW while I still have some good pancreas left.

Thanks so much for any recommendations!

AJ

As far as I'm concerned Dr B's book is the definitive book on the subject. Dr A's is a dumbed down version & deals pretty much with Type II only (but an easier read for the 'layman')

Another good book about low carbing & Syndrome X in general is The Carbohydrate Addict's Healthy Heart Program: Break Your Carbo-Insulin Connection to Heart Disease by Dr. Richard F. Heller, Rachael F., Dr. Heller, Dr. Rachael F. Heller, Dr. Frederic J. Vagnini, Frederic J. Vagnini, Richard Ferdinand Heller one of the original of the Carbohydrate Addict Seriies

Thanks for the suggestion, shawnee! Do you think I should forego Dr. A's version then?

The above thread will take you to a site with excerpts from Dr. B's book (until you are able to get the book).

I would think it wouldn't hurt to get Dr. A's book, if you are able to.

I already read all the exerpts from Dr. B...that's how I know I want it! LOL

Maybe I'll just get Dr. A's book too anyway. I'm supposed to be getting a $100 gift card to half.com. Wheeee!
