Customer Reviews

Low Fat Low Carb as recommended by Author of 8 Week Cholesterol Cure

I have both this book and The Type 2 Diabetes book, 3rd edition which was written by this author and co-written by the author of The 8 Week Cholesterol Cure. Both authors recommend a low Carb diet to bring your weight down. Both recommend a LOW FAT Low-Carb regimen. I had concerns about a low-diet affecting brain function but, Larry McCleary's book, The Brain Trust put my mind at ease there. The recipes are good. Lot's of chicken and fish.

The Type II Diabetes Diet Book by Calvin Ezrin

I was diagnosed with diabetes around 3 or 4 years ago. I have floundered around trying to find out the right way to eat etc. The nutrition class I went to was led by a very heavy nutritionist. The class really became a turn-off for me. I kept having to increase my diabetic medicine until I was taking 4 and 1/2 pills per day. Then I ran across "The Type II" book--fantastic! Dr. Ezrin not only explains everything but gives you an eating plan as well as recipes. I went on this program February 15 of this year..and today, September 29, 2002, I have lost a total of 116 lbs. (which was my goal set with my Doctor) and I am completely off all my diabetic medicine, my blood pressure is normal. I try to tell anyone who wants to hear--about this book. I am now going in to the stabilization and then on to maintenance. I look at food a lot differently. I have lost weight many times before, but never had a maintenance plan that would help keep it off. Needless to say, I am very excited and happy! Thank you Dr. Ezrin!!! Note: You do have to make up your mind to be faithful to this program!

More than just weight loss!

I won't repeat the praise (which I do feel is warranted) for Dr. Ezrin's treatment of insulin-resistance and weight loss. I want to point out another vital issue addressed in this book: seratonin depletion.Depleted level of seratonin (which can't be measured on any test) cause a wide variety of health problems, often misdiagnosed as thyroid problems, Chronic Fatigue, etc. (See the article about it on my website...).Read this to understand the problem - and the solution. It's totally curable, with a simple treatment. And "Your Fat Can Make You Thin" even has a chapter addressed to your doctor to help explain things from a medical point of view.You have nothing to lose, and your life to regain!

The best diet I've ever tried

This book has enlightened me as to how our bodies burn fat. It is very interesting and everything Dr. Ezrin says makes sense. I have lost weight without being hungry and understand what I need to do in order to not gain the wieght back. I highly recommend this book and diet!

The intelligent guide to weight loss

This is a scientifically based book by an author with unmatched credentials. As an endocrinologist, Dr. Ezrin can explain the reason behind ongoing carbohydrate cravings and the basis for lifelong weight loss. The book is easy to read and the recipes are good. I personally know people who have followed this diet with enormous success.
