Book Description
Beat diabetes and lose weight! Ask any doctor or nutritionist who treats patients with diabetes: the first focus for controlling the disease is a healthy eating plan. But typical diabetic eating plans have been all about what you can't eat and what to do if you fall prey to a craving for foods you shouldn't have. But now a typical day in the life of a diabetic might start with a smoked salmon-and-dill omelet, continue to a lunch of three-bean chili, salsa and guacamole, and finish with a dinner of grilled shrimp and shaved fennel, topped off by a dessert of chocolate terrine. It's a kind of eating that virtually guarantees not just control of the disease and a satisfying of the appetite, but an emphasis on specific nutrients that actually target diabetes, beating back its potential side effects and maintaining the healthy weight that is key to controlling the disease. In Eat & Beat Diabetes with Picture Perfect Weight Loss, Dr. Howard Shapiro uses the same visual method of food comparisons that made his bestselling weight-loss books so popular and easy to use. Now he has teamed with top chef Franklin Becker, a diabetic himself, and together they reveal the secrets to a diet that can actually help you prevent and beat diabetes—without depriving yourself of delicious food.

Blackburn, M.D., Ph.D., Harvard Medical School "In 40 years of reading and evaluating writing on obesity and nutrition, this is one of the most clearly written books I have ever read.

Book Description
This honest memoir of the narrator ́s 100 lb. weight loss success departs from the typical food-focused diet book. Part autobiographical, part essay, sometimes a rant, it simply and clearly explains the science that effects body weight, and offers compelling reasons to get off the excess. Rather than sales pitches for exotic diet supplements, exercise contraptions or seldom used tapes, it gives tried and true strategies to stop overeating, served up with generous helpings of inspiration. It ́s an easy read with humorous moments and is filled with insights for choosing and using the foods you need. WHAT OTHERS WROTE: "This is not your ordinary weight loss book. A fresh approach, very well written, inspiring. I ́m living by it." Dwayne Holman, state association educational director "I thought it was going to be dull. Instead I found it engaging and readable--a real page turner." Helen Morton, newspaper book critic "Loved it. Using it. Want copies for all my friends!" Frieda Werden, radio producer W.I.N.G.S. Women ́s International News Gathering Service "My favorite line is: ́We are in really deep trouble when the least knowledgeable and the immature have taken over the lead dog position in deciding for the pack what ́s for dinner. ́" Bonnie Orr, screenwriter “Finally, a diet book that makes sense...a practical guide...made very easy to understand and implement ...quite entertaining. I recommend it highly...” Helen Dagley, RN
