This is a groundbreaking programme for managing - and even reversing - the symptoms of both Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes, by tackling the root cause: insulin resistance. Though not all doctors are aware of the scientific advances that prove it, most diabetics can now avoid insulin injections and prevent or reverse the deadly complications of their disease. The key is treating the root problem - insulin resistance - instead of focusing on controlling blood sugar levels, an outdated practice that puts patients at greater risk of heart attack and stroke. Take Charge of Your Diabetes showcases the unique plan Dr Zaidi has developed in treating thousands of cases of Type 1 and Type 2 successfully. Dramatically different from traditional treatment protocols, the programme includes an easy-to-follow diet, a moderate exercise and stress-reduction plan, vitamin and supplement recommendations and a prescription medication regimen that reduces the number of medications as time goes on instead of the traditional treatment model: stepping up doses as diabetes progresses.
