User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Does what it says.
I’m pretty impressed. Within a month of following the principles in this book, I have lost 13 pounds and got my blood sugar down from 116 to 85.
It’s easy to read, it makes sense, and it has some very good starter recipes for this new lifestyle.
I’m pretty pleased.
5 Stars A must read!
The probability of Prediabetes was a fact I had to face. I was overweight, I did not exercise regularly and just didn’t take care of myself. Once a family member was diagnosed with Prediabetes, I saw the light go on over my head. It’s time to take care of myself.
Jack Challem’s book “Stop Prediabetes Now” was spot on explaining the issues I was experiencing. Jack Challem provided me with a clear, simple yet comprehensive program to follow. It isn’t just about losing weight. He expresses the dynamics of the disease and it’s long term affects. He gave me the reasons to make the changes in my life long commitments, exercise and the need for vitamins/supplements I was lacking.
Following his advise, I am eating better, exercising on a regular basis. I feel better than I have for a long time. I have started to lose weight. I am more focused and I have more energy.
I can hardly wait to see the look on my Doctor’s face at my next appointment.
5 Stars Finally, realistic advice resulting in better health
Stop Prediabetes Now clearly describes the problem of prediabetes in an engaging, easy-to-read style, but more importantly it lays out a realistic plan for what actions to take. You won’t find fad diets here, but instead solid information from trusted and respected health professionals about a real way to get your health back on track for life.
5 Stars If you have prediabetes or diabetes read this book
This is an excellent book. I recommend it and his earlier book called Syndrome X to anyone with prediabetes or diabetes.
I was diagnosed as prediabetic with blood sugar at 112, triglycerides at 170, and cholesterol at 195. After following the recommendations concerning diet and exercise in this book for three months my blood sugar dropped to 101, my triglycerides to 65, my cholesterol to 176, and I lost 30 pounds going from 203 to 173 (I’m 5 foot 7 inches). I still have a ways to go to get my blood sugar down to an ideal level in the low 80s, but I am impressed with this book, its recommendations, and the results!
The only recommendations I have not followed yet are the supplement recommendations and that is because I live on a remote island in the South Pacific, but I will be ordering the supplements soon and I expect further drops in my blood sugar. My doctor (who told me that I would be diabetic in two to three years if I didn’t do something about it) was very impressed with the results and said “whatever you are doing keep doing it.” It’s really an eye-opening book and I recommend it to anyone who has problems with (pre)diabetes.
4 Stars The one book you should read on this topic
I am a health editor for a diabetes information company and this book and its authors are essentially the gold standard for information on this topic. You will not find a better source of information, advice, and explanation on this epidemic that threatens the health of what is fast becoming the majority of people in our country. I highly recommend reading this book, no matter your size, shape, or heredity.
