Prediabetes for Dummies

In general I didn't like the book. I wanted something factual and it did provide some facts I didn't know. However, I found the book very preachy and judgmentall. I was particularly annoyed by the story of page 334 of his granddaughter who loves fruits and vegetables and never eats sweets because her mother never feeds her baby food from a jar. As a mother who worked a full time job, took care of 3 kids (one with special needs) and had no help at home......he's f****ing crazy if I was going to add one more chore to my list of to dos. ( I know it is a little comment but it stirs a BIG reaction in me!!!) It also contained information that had nothing to do with diabetes. On page 203-4 it tells me to shop more often because I'll minimize show more the energy needed to transport the food and because I might get to know the farmer who made the food. What does that have to do with my pre diabetes? show less

It probably would have been good to read this before I came to a point where I needed it. There is enough information here to reverse the trend towards diabetes itself.
