Synopsis: In this title, Dale investigates the explosion in diabetes and attempts to find out why and what you can do about it.The book is intended to help relieve both type- 1 and type-2 diabetes - using nutrition alongside conventional medicine – but, importantly, Dale believes diet alone can heal type-2 diabetes.In the first half of the book, Dale unpicks the physiology and anatomy of diabetes, showing how the modern diet causes insulin resistance and – ultimately – type-2 diabetes. But his mission is to correct that and, in the second half of the book, he provides the delicious tools to do so.A chart of low-GI foods will help you to get 'carb-smart'. Start the day with an Avocado and cheddar omelette with spicy salsa, or enjoy a speedy Chicken and lentil curry. Serve friends Tilapia fillets with pea, mint and feta mash and tomato salad, or even try a low-GI Cheesecake for pudding.Learn Dale's secrets for yourself and successfully eat your way to avoiding – or relieving – diabetes.
