(HealthNewsDigest.com) - For the 26 Million people who have Diabetes and need to control BOTH their caloric intake and their weight, a study published last week in The Journal of The American Medical Association was a double-shot of good news. The study’s findings concluded that of three diets used by study participants, the glycemic load diet – with an emphasis on minimally processed carbohydrates coupled with proteins, legumes, nuts, and low fat foods – was the most successful over time in both keeping weight off and blood sugars down.

For twenty-five years, preventative cardiologist and champion of glycemic-load science Dr. Rob Thompson has been touting the benefits of the low glycemic load meal plan to his patients with high cholesterol, diabetes, and heart disease. His book, THE GLYCEMIC LOAD DIABETES SOLUTION: Six Steps to Optimal Control of Your Adult-Onset (Type 2) Diabetes (McGraw-Hill; June, 2012: PB, $18.00) offers an easy-to-follow, low-starch diet-and-exercise program that promises to stabilize blood sugar in just seven days.

Dr. Thompson has changed the way we think about treating diabetes--and kept his own under control for ten years—with his focus on starch, not sugar, as the number-one cause behind this chronic condition. Dr. Thompson offers hope for the millions of diabetes sufferers who follow their doctors' orders to the letter yet see their diabetes steadily worsen. In six easy steps, you will learn to eliminate the harmful effects of dietary starch and keep your blood sugar levels perfect while enjoying satisfying amounts of delicious food (including chocolate!).

In addition to a simple-to-adopt eating plan that will change your health for the better and and an innovative program that challenges current ADA guidelines, the book also features tips on starch-free cooking and easy-to-make low-starch recipes by Dana Carpender, author of the bestselling 15-Minute Low-Carb Recipes.

Using a medically approved method that offers a way to lose weight, regain vitality, and reduce medication – by adopting a seven-day, easy-to-follow menu plan – this is the answer diabetics have been looking for.

THE GLYCEMIC LOAD DIABETES SOLUTION: Six Steps to Optimal Control of Your Adult-Onset (Type 2) Diabetes, by Rob Thompson, M.D. June, 2012; Paperback, $18.00. 0071797386 / 9780071797382.
