Get off the blood sugar roller coaster!With Doing Diabetes Differently, Chad Lewis offers down-to-earth perspectives and approaches for all who struggle with diabetes. Lewis combines years of research with firsthand experience as he covers—sometimes provocatively—the mental, nutritional, exercise, and drugs-and-devices aspects of the disease. To present additional perspectives, the book includes commentaries from notable experts in the diabetes community.
Among the topics covered are:• Why the current hierarchy of diabetes care isn’t working• A mental framework that goes beyond just treating symptoms of diabetes distress• Why “going on a diet” is futile and what dietary alternatives work• How to make the right exercise more achievable• Why less is more when it comes to diabetes drugs and how to best use diabetes devicesDoing Diabetes Differently isn’t another how-to guide. Instead, it’s a place to discover a diabetes answer, a question to ask a care provider to get one, or a reference to consult to find one. If you’re frustrated and want a way to do diabetes differently (and better)—for yourself or someone you care for—this life-changing book is for you.
