Australia is currently in the middle of a diabetes epidemic. When this book was originally written in 2007, one Australian was diagnosed with diabetes every 10 minutes. That figure was anticipated to double by 2020, but has already exceeded that.
The good new is - a) with the right diet b) nutritional supplements and c) lifestyle changes, type 2 diabetes can actually be reversed in the majority of cases.
If you follow conventional dietary recommendations for diabetes, you will likely gain weight and your blood sugar will gradually rise. This book will teach you the best way to bring your blood sugar down and lose weight.

Embracing the Gift of High Sensitivity A guide to living joyfully by Mark Wells
HSPs comprise about a fifth of the human population. There is the same number of males as females although it may be less observable in the behaviour of many males because of upbringing and the influence of cultural stereotypes.
One of the greatest pains for anyone in this world is to feel thwarted in their ability to contribute and communicate.
Author Mark Wells is himself a HSP and as a practitioner has worked with thousands of HSPs over 35 years. He provides a powerful and convincing ‘voice’ for HSPs that encourages the less sensitive majority to take notice, understand and appreciate the valuable contribution someone with high sensitivity makes to the world.
Wells says: “I gain great satisfaction from assisting other HSPs — adults and children — to live healthy, contented and productive lives, which make room for their sensitivity and respect their depth of feeling and perception.”

Food IS Medicine Volume 3 by Brian Clement
The Food IS Medicine series emphasizes the powerful effect that an organic, plant-based diet has on disease prevention and recovery. The evidence provided in this series suggests that when a diet consists of a wide variety of health-building foods, it protects cells from degeneration and affords greater potential for a longer life. Volume Three compiles summaries of scientific studies that spotlight the foremost dietary hazards to human health. High on this list are meat, dairy products and sugar. Processed foods, food additives and food contaminants are also proving to be a potential cause of chronic illness. Brian Clement advocates that avoiding non-foods and an ever increasing group of man made products is just as important in disease prevention and longevity as the consumption of a proper diet. This indispensable reference provides key findings on dozens of conditions and their relationship to the foods we eat.

Gluten: Is it Making you Sick or Fat by Dr Sandra Cabot

Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, spelt and some types of oats. It is also an additive in a huge number of processed foods.
