Bill Kearney, RPh, pharmacist and owner of North Lake Medical Pharmacy Inc., and co-host of Health Talk on KXBX Radio, Lakeport, California, says, "A Field Guide to Type 2 Diabetes is an excellent book for the patient or family member. It is even more valuable to the diabetes educator who is trying to explain in simple terms a very complicated disease to someone without a medical background."
A Field Guide to Type 2 Diabetes is packed with information from the American Diabetes Association, the experts on diabetes care.
Topics include:
* Meal planning. Losing just 10 pounds can make a big difference in your blood sugars, blood pressure, and cholesterol levels. Field Guide gives you practical tips for cutting calories. You’ll also learn which foods raise blood sugars the most, and how to work these foods in to your meals.
* Immediate and long-term benefits of being more active. Did you know that something as simple as taking down your curtains may improve your blood sugars for the next several hours?
* How to lower your blood pressure and improve your cholesterol levels.
* How to avoid the complications of diabetes. What tests your doctor should do to detect the earliest signs of complications. Best treatments to prevent the progression of kidney and eye problems.
* Women’s issues: Pregnancy. The link between type 2 diabetes and infertility. How your medication needs may change during menopause.
* Kids with type 2. Should they use the same medications as adults?
* How you can help your children avoid type 2 diabetes.
