The diabetes plan

Book

The diabetes plan / Peter Brukner.

Brukner, Peter, 1952- (author.).

Summary:

At age 60, Dr Peter Brukner was diagnosed with pre-diabetes, despite having followed the dietary advice of his own profession all of his adult life. Intrigued, Peter did a deep dive into the research, and quickly reversed his dietary practices, ditching high-carb, low-fat for low-carb, high-fat. He lost 13 kilograms and dramatically improved his metabolic health. To help others achieve remission, Peter created an online program, which has seen thousands of Australians lose weight and reverse type 2 diabetes. In The Diabetes Plan, Peter shares his approach to diet, along with meal plans, testimonials and more than 45 recipes. Accessible, authoritative and effective, this is a one-stop guide to how to avoid diabetes, reverse a type 2 diabetes diagnosis, and reduce (or ditch) the need for diabetes medication.
