Picture it: You're at a party, surrounded by tempting treats and sugary drinks…but you know that this will send your blood sugar soaring.

A Health Education the Western World Needs
What I like about "Understanding Type 2 Diabetes" By Dr. Ashley Sullivan PharmD, is that you get a complete education on what is Type 2 Diabetes. You discover the relationship with insulin resistance and your blood sugar. You get a concrete plan to manage Type 2 through diet and the role medications play. The information in this book can help anybody that is pre-diabetic, and help others to manage their type 2 illness.

Valuable Resource
"Understanding Type 2 Diabetes" is an excellent and valuable resource. The guidance provided in this audio is not only easy to understand but beneficial. I particularly found the information on how to reduce medical expenses very helpful as it is not often covered as extensively in Type 2 Diabetes literature.

Insightful, Practical, Expert Guidance!
This audiobook is a treasure trove of useful information. I have a close personal friend who deals with Type 1 diabetes and wanted to understand his condition better - it's frightening that Type 2 diabetes is spreading like wildfire in this country due to poor lifestyle choices!
This resource describes symptoms, prevention techniques (both medical and lifestyle), how to monitor and control it once you have it. What to ask healthcare providers. Diet and exercise recommendations. Types of insulin. I learned so much throughout.
Even if you don't personally suffer from this condition, it's still valuable to know these things, if only to proactively prevent suffering from this condition yourself - Highly Recommend!

Great resource on type 2 diabetes
Understanding Type 2 Diabetes: Simple Steps to Avoid Complications, Reduce Medical Expenses, Decrease Stress and Live a Healthy & Proactive Life by Dr. Ashley Sullivan PharmD is a great resource for learning how to manage type 2 diabetes. The audiobook simply and clearly explains what is type 2 diabetes, it's causes, and how it can be managed through a number of holistic methods. Various medications for treatment are also provided with the pros and cons. I was surprised to learn that certain over the counter medications could have a negative effect on insulin or glucose levels. The complications for not managing diabetes are also outlined.
Very informative and I highly recommend this audiobook for anyone who is pre-diabetic or diabetic as it will provide insight on how to better manage this chronic condition.
