I went to the website for this book and it looks like he's telling a lot of the same info that most of us who have been doing this for awhile already know. The "Super Meal" is really what we are supposed to be eating. I'm sure that if he went back to old habits the diabetes would be back. I don't think you can ever kill diabetes, unless a type 2 has the gastric by-pass. Not worth it as far as I'm concern.

If this is Amazon.com: Death to Diabetes: The Six Stages of Type 2 Diabetes Control & Reversal (Version 1.0): DeWayne McCulley: Books, by DeWayne McCulley than I would skip it. Unless of course you wish to pursue a diabettic cure through christian prayer.

My wife brought me this book home from the library. I was interested in Dr. Kilmer Mcculley, a well respected researcher who was fired from Harvard for disagreeing with the lipid hypothesis. Unfortunately, my request was garbled in communication and I got DeWayne's book.

For newly diagnosed, there are certainly much better introductions such as Amazon.com: The First Year Type 2 Diabetes: An Essential Guide for the Newly Diagnosed: Gretchen Becker: Books. Although I don't necessarily agree with all the suggestions, it is a well written and objective introduction. For a more advanced discussion of diabetes, I personally recommend Amazon.com: Dr. Bernstein's Diabetes Solution: The Complete Guide to Achieving Normal Blood Sugars: Richard K. Bernstein: Books, although some find it hard to follow his strict dietary recommendations.
