I was so impressed and immediately jumped in. I tried to get an appt. with Dr. Bernstein but was dismayed at his prices, about $3000 if I remember correctly. I did the diet for about 2 weeks and then totally caved in to carbohydrate cravings. Since that time I've read many books on diet for diabetes. I wish I could do the strict low carb thing, I really do. I have friends that do it and they are so darn healthy now. Very consistant, low blood sugars. Weight loss, great cholesterol etc. Dr. B. is so strict with carbs. No fruit- that was the killer. I have, over the past year, given up all the white stuff (bread, sugar etc.) but fruit I just cannot, at least not right now. I do struggle with my bs spiking when <!--more--> I eat fruit but...it's where I am right now. I love the idea of complications being reversed. Fiona Rafi,

I eat fruit but…it’s where I am right now.

I love the idea of complications being reversed.

I hope you will forgive me for pushing back against certain bullying and harrassment techinques. Probably I can't resist responding and pointing out obvious flawed logic and delusional thinking because I had an older sister who used to try to control and manipulate me in ways very similar. From here on out though, I am going to delete said harrassment, as noted previously, and stick to answering questions people might have for me, or putting in what my experience has been with various things, if I have it or have read about it in what I consider significant sources, 'k?? *smile* I would say to anyone.. by all means exercise your freedom to delete as desired, and never believe anyone has the right answer for everyone else. I know what works for me.. maybe it will work for you.. maybe not. If you have found something that does work to heal and cure diabetes, <!--more--> for sure, I would love-adore-desire to hear as much about it as you would wish to relate. Debra..

It looks really interesting! It's great to learn from someone who actually has diabetes (type-1) and has made real progress with it. 50 years of and still working 12 hour days happily?! WOW. Gotta like that. High fat diet sounds almost fun. Well, thanks again. Can't wait to see what he has to say. Are you type-1 or 2? -Linda R Thank you, Rafi, for this link. i have ordered the book.
