Book Reviews of the Dr. Neal Barnard's Program for Reversing Diabetes (Random House Large Print)
Customer Review: I am amazed!
Summary: 2 Stars
Having a 13 and 15 year-old child both diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at the age of four, I continue to be amazed with the lack of knowledge that most physicians express about Type 1 diabetes. It is obvious to me that Dr. Barnard is just another Doc on an ego high to make money by publishing. To title a book "Program for Reversing Diabetes" is once again irresponsible and erroneous by not stating on the cover that this ONLY applies to Type 2 diabetes and only a small percentage of Type 2 at best. Unfortunately, there is NO reversing of Type 1 diabetes. It is true that one can improve there glucose levels by using an insuling pump, exercising, and eating a healthy diet. But reversing Type 1 diabetes is not yet an option. After being an active diabetes advocate for over 10 years with several trips to D.C. and lectures from Doctors from the National Institute of Health, I have learned that the facts show that the treatment for Type 1 diabetes is very $$ lucrative and finding a cure is not worth the risk for private industry. The cure for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes must come from Government funding (after the War). In the meanwhile, we will continue to have Doctors to profit from misleading information.
