Professor’s new book aims to help with type 2 diabetes
A LOUGHBOROUGH professor has written a book to help people who have type 2 diabetes.
The book, Beating Type 2 Diabetes by professor Michael Gleeson.
Prof Gleeson is a world authority in his field and the book tells people what they need to do to both reduce the health complications of the condition and how to get rid of it.
The book is published by Meyer & Meyer Sport who say: “An estimated 10 per cent of the UK population has type 2 diabetes. Gleeson’s book provides advice and tips about coping with type 2 diabetes and shows us how it can actually be reversed and put into remission.
“The book explains the signs and symptoms of type 2 diabetes so we know what to look out for, describes how diagnosis of the condition is confirmed, and how it is treated and managed.
“Essentially, it’s a guidebook that will answer all and every question on the disease that a sufferer or their loved ones might have - and of course, tells us how to go about beating it.
“At the heart of reversing and curing type 2 diabetes is weight loss and the book also provides guidance on methods of achieving this goal both safely and effectively by adopting a unique personalized weight loss plan that involves multiple diets in combination with enjoyable and exhilarating (but not exhausting) exercise.
“No one single boring low-carb diet or draining high intensity exercise programme is needed here.
Prof Gleeson said: “My aim is to educate the reader about the basic underpinning science and give clear recommendations and advice about how they can cope with their condition.
“I also want to empower and motivate people with type 2 diabetes to modify their current lifestyle for the better and explain how they can get rid of it for good, improve their quality of life and actually live longer.”
Beating Type 2 Diabetes, published by Meyer & Meyer Sport, is available through online retailers and, post-Lockdown, through high street bookstores.
