| I am currently reading the revised "Diabetes Solution" and am amazed by what this man has managed to do. While I find it hard to wrap my mind around eating that way, he has certainly proven that this way of eating has worked for him and there are many others who can attest to the same thing. I think this book has plenty that any diabetic, T1 or T2, can learn and benefit from. I'm hoping to get the willpower to try this lifestyle, at least for a while, and check my own physiologic responses to it.
