Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐This is a good book for reviewing and it has updated information that inspired me to try harder and count carbs. My mother found this book and loved it she said she had no idea that there was so much involved in being a type 1 diabetic. I became a diabetic before I was 21. It was not diagnosed until a month after I turned 21. I am 55 now and all I can say is I have to keep reading and reading and I still won’t know everything I need to know. This book is easy to read and it is not only good for the diabetic himself but for the family to read and then maybe they will not be so judgmental…

⭐After reading this book I concluded that you better not be a dummy if you have diabetes. It’s one complicated disease. This book went a long way toward helping me understand diabetes. It convinced me that an iron will, regular habits,and a penchant for routine and and detail, are the keys to living with diabetes successfully. Should you be deficient in any of the qualities listed above, good luck. You shall need it.

⭐I bought this for my boyfriend who is away for now and he loves it. He said it has taught him so much he didn’t know before.

⭐My boyfriend has type 1. It really explains the WHY and HOW really well. Explains why highs/ lows in blood sugars are bad. I like to know “why” so if there ever was an emergency I could help him. I have also learned what’s best to cook and make him for lunch. If you buy this grab your highlighters and sticky tabs. It will really help. My best friend had twins two years ago. Her body basically gave her Type 1. Which is rare at 32 years old. Type 1 is normally hereditary and starts before age 10. So she has had to change her life and learn. I sent her this book. She is really thankful for all the help. Especially understanding about carbs and how they affect your sugars. This book is excellent and if your child was recently diagnosed I 100% recommend this book. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is BC the few recipes are not very diabetic friendly unless you weigh 100 pounds and are not a man or woman. Haha.

⭐The thing I liked most about this book was that I never once got bored. It’s very well written. My four year old granddaughter was recently diagnosed with T1DM and celiac, so I wanted to learn as much as possible quickly. This book covers everything.

⭐The book is geared toward parents with kids who have type 1 diabetes . I read this and found good tips to deal with diabetes . The book isn’t updated .

⭐Bought this for my grown son who has type one diabetes. He is looking forward to reading it. It arrived in like- new condition,and sooner than expected.

⭐Great buy!

⭐I read the other 4 (good) reviews and ordered the book. My son has recently been diagnosed as Type 1 Diabetic. One of the reviews had mentioned that the book was written for an American audience, but that it was still useful. What it did not mention is that all the measurements (blood glucose levels in particular) are in US , not the same as UK mmo/l which, in my opinion, makes it useless if you are still getting to grips with the whole concept. Add to that the references to American Presidents and American restaurant brands, it gets a big thumbs down from an English person trying to come to terms with a condition that is already strange and confusing.

⭐I haven’t got to the end of this book just yet, but I did find it helpful. It does seem partially directed at parents of those with diabetes, and I don’t have a child with diabetes, but I’m still find it pretty useful and interesting.

⭐The service was very accurate and arrived earlier than I thought.The content of the book it is fine and useful when you don’t know anything about diabetes 1 but if you have disagnosed with diabetes you may need deeper and more professional information about what your body is going through and what do you need to do to be controlled.

⭐Lots of relevant information in this book for both uses of diabetes and someone who may be caring a person who has it

⭐I liked this book, because it gave me knowledge about diabetes that I didn’t know. I read this book because my girlfriend has diabetes for the last 28 years and I wanted to know how can I support her with it.It is more focused as if you were a parent with a recent diabetes diagnosis child. But it worked for me.
