Product Description
An estimated sixteen million Americans have prediabetes, a condition that often leads to full-blown diabetes—and nearly one million Americans will be diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in the next year. But everyone at risk can take simple steps to help reduce the chances of developing the condition. Stop Diabetes offers fifty essential, informative ideas for what you can do today, no matter what your age—whether you have prediabetes, a parent or sibling with type 2 diabetes, grandparents, or an aunt with the condition, a severe weight problem, or are a member of an ethnic group at high risk—including Hispanics, Native Americans, African Americans, and Pacific Islanders. Diabetes expert Gretchen Becker’s sensible, inspiring ideas, each presented with a clear rationale, include: • Learn your heritage • Go easy on the fruit juice • Learn about the glycemic index • Go window shopping (any kind of walking helps).
