Hi All,
I was wondering if anybody knew of a good diet book that I could follow or ebook or any info that would hopefully cure Diabetes 2 (my level is 6.3 - managed).
I also have very High/Bad Cholesterol levels.
Also, anyone know of a good cook book and/or diet for both conditions that have really helped? Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

This is a reply to # 891,990Hi 2Health, Have you studied Dr. Mercola's articles on diabetes? Here is one:
http://www.mercola.com/article/diabetes/index.htm
Also do not eat grains or potatoes.
Cholesterol: Do not eat out. Do not eat transfat. I eat a diet that you would consider high in fat. (organic meats, eggs, fermented whole milk, fermented vegetables coconut oil...) I recently had my cholesterol tested: Total 274
HDL 103 LDL 158 however my ratio, which is what I always go by, is 2.7. The range is 0.0-4.4. My ratio is very low. My HDL is so high that it negates everything else. The Life Extension doctor told me my cholesterol was GREAT!!!
It has been like this for many years. It is suggested that women have a ratio of 3.3.
As far as cook books, have you checked out Nourishing Traditions or The Maker's Diet. Have you studied Mercola's website?
I am not a diabetic, but I have many friends who are.
Wishing You All Good Things?

This is a reply to # 892,057After doing much research on diets for diabetes, high cholesterol and arthritis, here and at Mercolas and other sites, it seems the only foods I CAN eat is vegetables nuts, seeds and beans.
I can't eat fruit or juice due to the raising of blood sugar, or any grains, bread, pasta, grain cereal, rice, as this causes a rapid rise in blood sugar, yet oats LOWERS cholesterol levels...what do do.
I can't eat dairy, (milk, cheese, yogurt), not even meat because this increases bad Cholesterol, and I understand that eliminating dairy completely cures arthritis. How can man (woman) live on only vegetables, nuts, seeds and beans alone? I know I can't for very long.
I don't understand how I got High Cholesterol and Diabetes and Arthritis in the same year, I just turned 45, I was very athletic before 5 years ago, and always in PERFECT shape. Then I got depressed and stopped exercising until recently. I know exercising helps with depression, but being depressed you just don't care. I have started working out again, and 5HTP has cured the depression!! No more drugs!
I have rarely eaten meat in many years, never pork in 30 years. I watched my fat intake, I never eat refined Sugar or any Sugar at all, (I have never had a sweet tooth, but a salt tooth, my mother growing up always said to me when I refuse a piece of cake or pie, "sweet is for the sweet" and she injects insulin) and my weight has never gone over 20 lbs from my optimial weight, except when the Dr. had me on anti-depressants, which I gained 30 pounds that year, YIKES! I detoxed off those and the lbs just fell of in a very short time.
Anyway am I stuck eating just vegetables, nuts, seeds and beans? I don't know what else I CAN eat that won't make all three conditions worse :(
