Product Description
Foreword by Mehmet Oz, co-author of YOU: ON A DIET and YOU: AN OWNER'S MANUAL. This ground-breaking book reveals how insulin resistance is linked to heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s, overweight, childhood behavioral disorders, depression, high blood pressure, and more. It also provides information on how to get insulin under control. While insulin is most closely associated with diabetes it is, in fact, the culprit in the diseases that are making the American population ill -- heart disease, cancer, diabetes, stroke, and Alzheimer’s. Insulin is the hormone that helps the body use glucose, when insulin and glucose are out of balance glucose builds up in the blood, leading to inflammation which can cause disease in any number of the body’s systems. Drawing on the latest scientific research on the role insulin plays in the systems of the body, this book presents information on nutrition and exercise that will battle increased insulin levels, reduce insulin resistance, and keep the entire body healthy and free of disease. Nutrition and exercise are the keys to controlling insulin levels and keeping the entire body healthy and the book provides extensive information on how and what to eat to not only prevent disease and improve overall health – it explains the effect of insulin on physical and mental function and tells you what to do for a particular concern be it heart disease, brain aging, or diabetes. Freedom from Disease is comprehensive, well-researched, and will give you the tools you need to effectively reduce insulin levels and maintain excellent health.

very inspiring September 24, 2008 the evidnece presented in this book should encourage and motivate everyone to eat a healthier diet very informative C.W. RN and Certified Diabetes Educator
Clear, concise and logical September 5, 2008 It took the post office almost a month to deliver this book so I'm not as far along as I had hoped. However it is clear, concise, easy to understand and I don't know why someone hasn't put this together before now.

Short Review - this is an excellent book. People need to take responsibility for their personal wealth by managing their own diet and exercise and to stop assigning blame to parents, heredity, and their doctors. Type II diabetes is not inevitable and actually can be reversed in its early stages if the patient chooses to change their lifestyle.
Excellent guide to renewed health. August 3, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have been following the suggestions of this book for eight weeks. I have lost a lot of inches and weight. My blood sugars have dropped to an acceptable level and I feel a great deal better. I have recommended the book to several family members and friends. They are also seeing very positive results. My grateful thanks to Peter Morgan Kash and Jay Lombard.
WHAT "BAD" FOODS DO TO YOU July 30, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book doesn't tell us anything new about which foods are "bad" for us, BUT it gives an extremely comprehensive view of HOW certain substances adversely affect us and WHY we shouldn't overindulge in them. Becoming resistant to insulin precedes multiple major health problems. The book is an impressive study, and easy to follow.
