Summary: A tremendous help; it may have literally saved my life.
Comment: When I first got this book, my blood sugar had leveled-out at about 300. I just couldn't lower my blood sugar, no matter how well I ate or how much I exercised. All my doctor could or would do was change my medication and order more tests for me. I didn't have medical insurance and I couldn't afford any more tests, or even doctors' visits; so I stopped seeing my doctor.
In this book, I was firmly advised NOT to exercise until my blood sugar was below 250; otherwise my body would react to the exercise by releasing even more sugar into my blood. After I stopped the exercise my blood sugar did start to slowly drop. I then carefully read the book from cover to cover, and gained a large amount of very useful information.
I also began doing "Tai Chi for Diabetes", which also appears to have helped.
Within a few weeks my blood sugar level dropped below 110. I then discontinued the medication my doctor had given me. For over a week now my blood sugar has been below 107; without taking any pills.
I've read a few other books on Diabetes, and they were all somewhat helpful; but "The Mayo Clinic on Managing Diabetes" was by far the most helpful and informative book I've read on the subject. I strongly recommend it.
