At a time of dramatic increases in the prevalence of obesity, it is appropriate that Type 2 diabetes has received a great deal of attention by the endocrinology community. Clearly, the management of insulin resistance and cardiovascular risk is a critical issue. However, it is important to also acknowledge and address Type 1 diabetes, whose prevalence is also increasing, and whose management remains complex. Currently it is estimated that 10-15% of those with diabetes carry the diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes, and frequently the diagnosis is not straightforward, as many clinicians recognize that more adults previously thought to have Type 2 diabetes actually have late-onset Type 1 diabetes (also termed latent autoimmune diabetes of the adult or LADA). Over the last decade tools for the management of Type 1 diabetes have also evolved; therefore, clinicians now have the opportunity to more closely replicate normal physiologic insulin secretion with either basal-bolus insulin therapy or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusions. While these advancements allow clinicians to manage patients with Type 1 diabetes better, they also add complexity to patient treatment. An updated text to address the concepts behind the recognition of new onset Type 1 diabetes in adults, the ongoing care of adults with established Type 1 diabetes, and future potential therapies and devices is warranted to review these issues for both endocrinologists and primary care providers with an interest in diabetes. As part of the Oxford American Endocrinology Library, this volume stands as a concise guide in the treatment of Type 1 Diabetes in adults. The authors briefly examine the classification and pathophysiology of Type 1 diabetes (including predication and prevention and LADA) and address management (blood glucose monitoring, insulin therapy, and Continuous Subcutaneous Insulin Infusion) and complications (Hyperglycemia, Retinocpathy, Nephropathy, Neuropathy, etc) of the disease. Finally
Diabetes is one of the most significant challenges currently facing the health care industry. It is predicted that the number of diabetic patients will reach at least 300 million worldwide by the year 2025. Atlas of Diabetes Evaluation and Management will provide a concise and reader-friendly reference on the identification, assessment, and control of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes, and will serve as an all-encompassing guide to deliver quality health care to the rapidly growing number of patients with this disease.
Based on breakthrough studies, Cohen’s program reveals how people with diabetes canreduce their need for prescription medication and minimize the disease’s effect on the bodyMost doctors consider diabetes a one-way street—once you have it, your only option is to manage the symptoms with a restricted diet, close monitoring of blood sugar, and expensive medications. Pharmacist Suzy Cohen shows that diabetes can be treated instead through safe, natural means, like food and vitamins, rather than strictly relying on prescription drugs. She shifts the focus away from glucose management to a whole body approach, using supplements, minerals, and dietary changes to lose weight, repair cell damage, improve insulin function, and reduce the side effects from prescription drugs, many of which rob nutrients from the body and cause additional symptoms.This 5-step program uses natural alternatives, such as drinking nutrition-packed green drinks, adding vitamin D and anti-inflammatory supplements, increasing fiber intake, and including minerals in the diet to help restore the body’s own supply of insulin. Diabetes without Drugs explains how patients can protect their heart, kidneys, eyesight, and limbs from the damage often caused by diabetes and shows the impact that the right foods and the right supplements can make in reducing blood sugar levels, aiding weight loss, and restoring vibrant health to everyone with diabetes.

Diabetes is a disease with a fascinating history and one that has been growing dramatically with urbanization. According to the World Health Authority, it now affects 4.6% of adults over 20, reaching 30% in the over 35s in some populations. It is one of the most serious and widespread diseases today. But the general perception of diabetes is quite different. At the beginning of the 20th century, diabetes sufferers mostly tended to be middle-aged and overweight, and could live tolerably well with the disease for a couple of decades, but when it occasionally struck younger people, it could be fatal within a few months. The development of insulin in the early 1920s dramatically changed things for these younger patients. But that story of the success of modern medicine has tended to dominate public perception, so that diabetes is regarded as a relatively minor illness. Sadly, that is far from the case, and diabetes can produce complications affecting many different organs. Robert Tattersall, a leading authority on diabetes, describes the story of the disease from the ancient writings of Galen and Avicenna to the recognition of sugar in the urine of diabetics in the 18th century, the identification of pancreatic diabetes in 1889, the discovery of insulin in the early 20th century, the ensuing optimism, and the subsequent despair as the complexity of this now chronic illness among its increasing number of young patients became apparent. Yet new drugs are being developed, as well as new approaches to management that give hope for the future. Diabetes affects many of us directly or indirectly through friends and relatives. This book gives an authoritative and engaging account of the long history and changing perceptions of a disease that now dominates the concerns of health professionals in the developed world. Diabetes: the biography is part of the Oxford series, Biographies of Diseases, edited by William and Helen Bynum. In each individual volume an ex
Editors Thakore (neuroscience, St. Vincent`s Hospital Fairview, Dublin) and Leonard (pharmacology, National U., of Ireland, Galway) and 18 contributing writers provide a collection of reviews that help create a context to explain why subjects with serious mental illness develop obesity, varying stages of diabetes, and related cardiovascular problems. The authors discuss and review numerous relevant topics: the relationship between prolactin and bone mineral density in subjects in medical treatment and the underlying dopaminergic mechanisms, the immunological changes occurring as an integral part of serious mental illness, and their impact on endocrine function. The writing is direct, detailed, and extremely accessible for such potentially complex topics--and supported by extensive references. Annotation )2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

The New Glucose Revolution for Diabetes is the first comprehensive guide to using the glycemic index to control type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, prediabetes, and more. The book features the latest, most accurate information with new findings by the authors. It includes GI-based recipes and menus for type 1, type 2, prediabetes, gestational diabetes, and juvenile diabetes, as well as related conditions like obesity and celiac disease, plus practical dietary guidance on sugar, sweeteners, alcohol, snacking, and eating out.
A revised new edition features comprehensive coverage of diabetes self-management, drawing on the latest research and treatment options from the past ten years to counsel readers on such areas as eating strategically, monitoring glucose levels, and administering medications.
This pocketbook presents a clear overview of the new drugs and treatment therapies that have been developed in recent years to help perfect glycaemic control for the diabetic patient, namely the incretinmimetics (GLP_1 Agonists) and DPP-4 inhibitors. It also considers other drug classes currently in development and undergoing clinical trials, including the SGLT2 inhibitors and other pipeline products. In addition to pharmaceutical treatment therapies, the book covers the role of bariatric surgery as a method of achieving stable glucose levels. To better understand the new treatment therapies, clinicians need to see them in comparison to existing methods, so the book also provides an overview of current diabetes management, including the pros and cons of traditional therapies, and also covers the epidemiology and pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes.

JUST WHAT THE DOCTOR ORDERED?FOR DINNER"Healthy gourmet food isn`t an oxymoron," says Dr. Rani Polak, a Hadassah medical doctor and cordon bleu chef. Nor should you have to go out of your way to make special dishes to be eaten only by a diabetic child or adult, Dr. Polak insists. The entire family will ask for seconds when you serve the nutritious foods featured in his first cookbook, Delicious Diabetic Recipes: The Gourmet Cookbook for a Healthy Life, (Imagine 2009) published recently in the US.Dr. Chef Polak hangs his chef`s hat, both at Hadassah Medical Center where he treats patients and at Hadassah College where he teaches future chefs how to cook healthy foods in general, and specifically how to create recipes that take into consideration the do`s and don`ts for those suffering from Crohn`s disease, diabetes and celiac disease.Dr. Polak, 37, was born in Rishon LeZion, and after service in the IDF enrolled in the Hebrew University-Hadassah School of Medicine. Midway through the six-year medical school program, he took a one-year break to visit Australia. There he led locals and tourists on out back hiking treks and indulged his passion for cooking at the down under Le Cordon Bleu. When he returned to Israel, the disparate ingredients of his education fermented. Polak became interested in treating Crohn`s Disease, the severe gastrointestinal illness which requires a very strict diet. When his patients complained about the food restrictions, he starting coming to the hospital with his stethoscope and a spatula. He developed a cooking workshop that included a grand dinner. Soon, he was recruited to Hadassah College`s Culinary Arts where chefs for restaurants, hotels and catering companies learn their profession. He continues to teach wellness cooking classes at Hadassah`s Center for Healthy Living. "I`m not just interested in treating diseases," says Dr. Polak. "I want to improve the quality of everyday life for patients."
Hundreds of tasty, nutritious recipes and menus without wheat or gluten. Who must avoid wheat? People with celiac disease, who are unable to tolerate wheat, and people with food allergies-all in all, an estimated 10 to 15 percent of Americans. Wheat and wheat products are present in some form in almost every processed food product-not just bread, cereal, pasta, and other flour-based products, but also such unexpected items as licorice, cream soups, sauces, condiments, and even some medicines.

Dr. Fenster`s recipes emphasize fresh, wholesome ingredients and simple, clear instructions that make for easy, fail-proof preparation of mouthwatering meals.
