Hope for the Thin Prediabetic Most American diabetics are overweight. Because of the tendency to aim health care at this majority, doctors may be unprepared when encountering the slim adult with prediabetes. Weight loss and dieting don't seem to apply to this lean group. Patients often depart the office with a prescription for metformin and vague exercise advice. Up until now, proactive thin prediabetics and early Type 2 diabetics have felt overwhelmed, searching for an authoritative resource to provide explanations and, hopefully, alternatives. This book addresses the particular needs of this minority segment of the population, while simultaneously providing a basic knowledge about the diabetic process that is relevant for everyone. Additionally, it describes how non-obese prediabetics can evaluate their own individual cases, determine which nutraceuticals best apply, while responsibly balancing the risks and benefits. Drawn extensively from published scientific research from both contemporary Western studies and traditional Eastern medicine. This book has the potential to change your life.
