Chelsea Green Publishing Co Master Your Diabetes: A Comprehensive,
Book SynopsisThe evidence is clear: We are in the midst of a worldwide diabetes epidemic. In the United States alone, one in three Americans is either diabetic (29 million patients) or prediabetic (87 million patients), costing an annual $242 billion in medical treatments. In Master Your Diabetes, naturopathic physician and diabetes expert Dr. Mona Morstein shows how people with both type 1 and type 2 diabetes can gain and maintain excellent control of their blood sugar levels, preventing and even reversing existing complications through education combined with medical support and encouragement. This is the first comprehensive guide for patients, caregivers, and medical practitioners to demonstrate an integrative approach based on the “eight essentials” of treatment and prevention: a low-carb diet, exercise, good sleep, stress management, healing the gut, detoxification, supplementation, and medications. Topics covered include: Important physical exams and lab work Conventional diets and non-insulin medications Insulin Low-carb diets and how they apply to different food groups Lifestyle factors, including exercise, stress management, and the microbiome Diabetic supplementation Pediatric diabetes An indispensable resource, Master Your Diabetes will empower readers to take control of their condition and continue living full, active, enjoyable, and long lives.Trade ReviewLibrary Journal— "With an emphasis on alternative approaches vs. conventional treatments, licensed naturopathic physician Morstein provides a comprehensive guide to diabetes management. Unlike traditional diabetes therapy and management guides, this text offers an integrative model of holistic care for those living with the disease. It begins with a general overview of diabetes and progresses into treatment and management options with special attention given to detailing the patient’s physical exam and describing lab work values. The crux of the book is structured around 'The Eight Essentials,' an integrative protocol consisting of diet, exercise, sleep, stress management, healing the gut and microbiome, environmental detoxification, supplementation, and medications. The science presented is well researched and founded on sound evidence with claims supported by scholarly works, including case reports, systematic reviews, and metaanalyses. Verdict: Those looking for alternatives to conventional diabetes management approaches will find this a comprehensive and practical resource. Recommended for diabetic and prediabetic patients, as well as family members of those diagnosed." “We know more about diabetes than ever in history, yet disease rates are not declining appreciably, while costs to manage the disease continue to soar. In Master Your Diabetes, Dr. Morstein draws from the best of conventional and integrative therapies to provide diabetic patients an easy-to-implement program to regain their health.”—Robb Wolf, author of Wired to Eat and The Paleo Solution“This book is as complete a compendium on diabetes management as I have ever read. What is more, it tells the truth: ‘To be blunt, no person with T2DM should ever wind up on insulin if they follow the protocol established by an integrative physician.’ Type 2 diabetes is both preventable and in a majority of cases can be put into remission. This book is an ideal reference to understand how and why.”—Timothy Noakes, MD, PhD, emeritus professor, University of Cape Town, South Africa; founder, The Noakes Foundation“In Master Your Diabetes, Dr. Mona Morstein covers the topic of holistic diabetes management in exceptional detail, providing real-world guidance for creating a low-carb lifestyle based on anti-inflammatory, organic, nutrient-dense foods and supportive lifestyle measures to improve blood sugar control and reduce disease risk. This comprehensive, well-written, and evidence-based book is ideal for medical and nutrition professionals, those with diabetes or prediabetes, and anyone interested in improving their overall health and vitality through healthy, low-carb living.”—Franziska Spritzler, RD, CDE“Dr. Morstein has developed a comprehensive and unique approach to the treatment of diabetes; the information she provides is priceless.”—Dr. Jared Zeff, ND, LAc“Dr. Morstein is certainly one of the world’s top experts in the integrative management of diabetes. This book is a must-have resource for both clinicians and for people diagnosed with diabetes.”—Lise Alschuler, ND, FABNO, executive director, TAP Integrative

Rutgers University Press Sugar and Tension: Diabetes and Gender in Modern
Book SynopsisWomen in North India are socialized to care for others, so what do they do when they get a disease like diabetes that requires intensive self-care? In Sugar and Tension, Lesley Jo Weaver uses women’s experiences with diabetes in New Delhi as a lens to explore how gendered roles and expectations are taking shape in contemporary India. Weaver argues that although women’s domestic care of others may be at odds with the self-care mandates of biomedically-managed diabetes, these roles nevertheless do important cultural work that may buffer women’s mental and physical health by fostering social belonging. Weaver describes how women negotiate the many responsibilities in their lives when chronic disease is at stake. As women weigh their options, the choices they make raise questions about whose priorities should count in domestic, health, and family worlds. The varied experiences of women illustrate that there are many routes to living well or poorly with diabetes, and these are not always the ones canonized in biomedical models of diabetes management. Trade Review"Recommended."— Choice "Sugar and Tension is a poignant ethnography that reveals how middle-class women in urban North India grapple with a mounting diabetes epidemic in the midst of shifting expectations and opportunities for women. Women with diabetes in Delhi often act in ways that run counter to biomedical recommendations. Weaver helps us to understand why, through her account of structural constraints that women face, and by showing how women justify their actions as they leverage ideas about relationships among diabetes, tension and self-sacrifice to engage in both social critique and self-validation. This book makes an important contribution to the studies of medical anthropology and gender in South Asia."— Cecilia VanHollen, author of Birth in the Age of AIDS: Women, Reproduction, and HIV/AIDS in India “This book is a must read not only for scholars and public health practitioners wanting to understand how women in contemporary India experience and respond to diabetes; but a broader audience interested in what ethnographies of chronic illness can tell us about gender roles, women’s life priorities, and challenges to their wellbeing across the life course.”— Mark Nichter, author of Global Health: Why Cultural Perceptions, Social Representation and Biopolitics Matter "Weaver identifies this tension between self-care and societal demands in women in India and offers a way forward for all, with generalizable lessons for anyone dealing with a chronic disease. Sugar and Tension provides a unique and incisive view of diabetes in modern India, and highlights the potential for women to change their own place in society."— Latha Palaniappan, The Lancet "This is a book where women's voices sing. It is filled with stories that make an imprint because they are narratively complex, in-depth, and speak to the heart of the issues that center the book: diabetes, the efforts and limitations of self-care, family, and, most importantly, gender....Beautifully articulates the everyday dilemmas women face as they manage competing demands and sometimes contradictory cultural poles as they try to live well, physically, mentally, and spiritually."— American Journal of Human Biology Human Biology Association - Sausage of Science 83- An Excerpt with Dr. Lesley Jo Weaver https://soundcloud.com/humanbiologyassociation/sos-82-an-excerpt-with-dr-lesley-jo-weaver— Sausage of Science "A clear and very compelling ethnography that demonstrates how for women in New Delhi, learning to be diabetic is as much about family and global development as it is about individual well-being. Weaver does not set up self-sacrifice and self-care as mutually exclusive possibilities but considers how acts of control and giving hold profound social meaning in North India. Overall, this highly readable book would be appropriate for undergraduate and graduate courses in medical anthropology, global health, biocultural anthropology, and the anthropology of gender."— Medical Anthropology QuarterlyTable of ContentsTable of Contents Acknowledgments Chapter 1: Opening a Window on Diabetes Experience Chapter 2: Seeking Modern India Chapter 3: Balance: The Moral and Practical Work of Diabetes Management Chapter 4: Tension: Diabetes, Distress, and Mental Health Chapter 5: Sacrifice: Domesticity and Care Among Women with Diabetes Chapter 6: Resilience: Living Well with Diabetes Chapter 7: Conclusions: Diabetes as Life Appendix References Index
