DLK's special discount
for members of Diabetes Daily

DLK answers your questions.

Because everyone with diabetes can benefit from a better understanding of the foods they eat.  There are many new DD members who simply 'don't understand' about nutrition and food choices.  They need help to identify food and lifestyle choices that can help control diabetes .. this discount helps make it a little easier for them to get started on making changes.

No.  I don't check on memberships but I am hoping you are at least a regular 'guest' or 'lurker' at Diabetes Daily. 
Why?  Because it gives me an indication that you are taking your diabetes seriously and actively seeking advice about all elements of the condition. 

Remember, I do not give advice or offer opinions about meds or testing strips or any of the other multitude of topics best discussed with your doctor or your experienced peers.  (If you refer a friend to this webpage to take advantage of the discount coupon, please also refer them to the Diabetes Daily forum.)

Whether or not you count carbs is your decision.  I will help you understand which foods can be considered 'good carbs'.  (I don't believe all carbs were 'born equal'.)  Whether you actually count carbs or not, I think you'll agree that it always helps to avoid 'bad carbs' and replace them with healthier options.

I use the term 'diet' to mean 'foods that you eat'.  I profile a variety of what I consider to be the best foods to include in your diet if you want to avoid or control T2 diabetes ... and I explain why they are helpful.  Then you decide if and when to eat them.  For the first month your main aim is to read through the ebooks I send you and ease yourself into new diet and lifestyle choices.  At the end of the first month, you will receive information about even more foods and your food choices expand greatly.  At all times, however, the choice about what you eat is yours.  If you have Type 2 Diabetes (or are struggling with pre-diabetes) you should monitor your levels and discuss your diet changes with your doctor.

Q.  Are there foods that can help with male sexual problems?

Yes.  There are some references to foods that can help address male sexual problems in the main text "How to Save Money, Lose Weight and Improve Your Health in a Diabetes World". (I have considered writing more on the subject but decided 'family friendly' discouraged it.)  In my experience, better control of diabetes and improvements in general health have resulted in some success stories.  How much of the foods those happy men have eaten, I couldn't say.

Can I guarantee that every male will be successful?  No.  Fortunes are spent every year in the search for fail-safe solutions to male problems.  I can only suggest dietary changes that may help.  If I receive enough questions about this topic in the future I would consider writing about it in more depth.

Q.  Will you try and sell me 'supplements' ?

No.  I will actively try and help you avoid supplements by encouraging you to source the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients you need from real foods.  I understand if you feel that many ebooks about diabetes are simply 'an excuse to sell supplements' ... but mine aren't.

Q.  Was your book written by a ghost writer?  Are you just pretending to be the author?

No.  I wrote every word in all my books.  And I also write each Monthly Motivator.  If you see my text with someone else's name as author, please report them to me.

Q.  Can you promise me I will save money, lose weight and improve my health if I read your book?

How much money you save, how much weight you lose, and how great the health improvements will be obviously depends on the individual.  Some people are already at their ideal weight when reading the book and just want to learn about healthy foods and medicinal herbs.  Others are taking medications with a 'weight gain' side effect.  Obviously that complicates my answer, but the general answer is yes, I am confident that everyone who reads my books will at least be able to make positive improvements to their health ... and will save money and lose weight as a result of those improvements.  If you read it and disagree, ask for your money back.

Q.  What if I don't think you can help me.

You have 30 days to ask for your money back.  That gives you plenty of tme to read the main book.  If you don't think my advice will help you save money, lose weight and improve your health and you have no interest in receiving the rest of the bonuses, I will give 100% money back and send you no more information.

Q.  Do I have to eat tofu and mung beans?

I don't mention tofu in my main text.  I do briefly mention mung beans.  Whether or not you eat them is up to you.  Tofu is one of many, many foods discussed in a later document I send to readers, but obviously you don't have to eat it.  (lol.) Most of the foods discussed are foods you will recognize and may already eat ... but perhaps not often enough.

Q.  I'm T1.  Can I read your book?

The original title of my main text was  "How to Save Money, Lose Weight and Improve Your Health in a (Type 2) Diabetes World" but it has been shortened in common use.  The book came about as a result of my involvement with people with Type 2 diabetes.  I originally researched the foods and herbs with Type 2 diabetes in mind.  At no time was I trying to address issues associated with Type 1 (and we all know there are differences.)  My biggest concern is that my suggestions for foods and herbs that help lower b/g levels in Type 2's might risk hypos in Type 1's.

Recently I did give a copy of How to Save Money, Lose Weight and Improve Your Health in a Diabetes World to a T1 member of Diabetes Daily to read because I was receiving emails such as yours from other T1s.  (Not willing to include a quote here but it might get discussed by the member in a thread on the Diabetes Daily forum.)  For the purpose of this exercise however, I continue to advise against T1's buying the book unless you are absolutely confident that you have your diabetes under control enough to be able to run your 'T1 filter' while reading it. 

T1's please note.  I stress again ...the main book is written for people with Type 2 Diabetes, people with pre-diabetes, and those without any diabetes diagnosis but at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.  But it is not written for T1's.  Yes, you can learn a lot about foods from the combined contents of the 'Bonus Pack' available here ... but you won't learn about anything specific to Type 1 diabetes.  And if you're a T1 who reads the main text please don't be offended by the emphasis on losing weight and any references to obesity.  Like it or not, for T2's the issues of weight loss and the implications of obesity are high on the list of priorities.

Q.  Is this a "raw food" diet?

No, this is about "health-giving" foods to include in your diet.  Some foods are best eaten raw.  Others are best eaten cooked. I tell you which is which ... and why.

Q.  Are you a vegan?

No.

Q.  I have tried lots of diets before and failed.  What makes your diet better?

You can't fail.  You can simply have varying degrees of success.

Q,  Is it true that you wrote the book about the medicinal herbs that fix diabetes?

I wrote a book about foods, herbs and lifestyle choices that can help control Type 2 diabetes ... but at no time have I ever considered herbs capable of performing miracles.  I don't believe that herbal remedies of any type can be expected to counteract the effects of inappropriate food and lifestyle choices.  But I do believe it is possible for many people to reverse the display of symptoms associated with T2 diabetes if they make appropriate decisions about their diet and lifestyle.

I'll need to be alive for another 50 years before I'll offer an opinion on how 'permanent' those improvements can be.  Meanwhile, I will continue to encourage as many people as possible to strive for similar success in their own efforts to control their diabetes.

Q.  How can I tell if following your advice is working for me?

In the short term, extra cash in your pocket will tell you if you are saving money.  Your clothes size will tell you if you are losing weight.  Your b/g, cholesterol and other levels will tell you if your health is improving.  Your greatest savings, however, are likely to be long term if you manage to avoid the need for supplements, surgery, loss of income and other expenses associated with diabetes-related complications.

Q.  I suffer from neuropathy.  Can you help?

You will learn about foods that can help improve circulation.

Q.  Is there one food that can end my T2 diabetes?

Reaching and maintaining good health is not as simple as one food, one pill or one potion.  Read my book.  If you don't feel as though you have a better understanding and confidence about what is required to give you the best chance of successfully managing your diabetes when you've finished the book, ask for your money back.

Q.  Do you want me to write a testimonial?

I appreciate your positive feedback but I believe testimonials only count for a reader when they know the person.  I prefer 'word of mouth' recommendations instead of quotes on websites that could be made up.  Please tell your friends directly.

Q.  I have been overweight for a long time and I don't have diabetes but my doctor says I should read your book.  Why?

I have been aware for the past few years that a number of doctors have been pointing some of their patients in my direction.  (Back to that issue of word of mouth recommendations.)  Once you've read How to Save Money, Lose Weight and Improve Your Health in a Diabetes World and Generations of Diet, I think "why" should be obvious.  If it's not, ask your doctor .. or write to me again when you've read the book. (lol)

Q.  Is the "pre-diabetes diet" different from the "Type 2 diabetes diet"?

Everyone receives the same information.  Recommendations for the first month are the same.  The choices you make from the many other food profiles you receive at the end of the first month will be determined by whether or not you have diabetes.  By that time you'll have a greater understanding of what your body needs and what sort of foods you personally should be avoiding and/or embracing.

Q.  Do you tell me everything I need to know about diabetes?

My focus is on foods and lifestyle choices that help make the foods more effective.  Your doctor should be your primary source of information about diabetes.  You can also discuss diabetes-related questions with members of forums like Diabetes Daily.  But ultimately, key decisions should be made by you and your doctor.

Q.  My friend can't afford to buy your book.  Can she copy mine?

If your friend genuinely can't afford to buy my book, tell her to write to me directly.  Giving copies of my book to others is in breach of copyright laws.  I am the only person who can decide to give a copy of my book away.  But yes, I do give away copies from time to time.

Q.  What if my question is not answered in your books?

Write to me.

Q.  I take a lot of supplements.  Should I stop taking them?

Not right away. Adjust your food choices and ask your doctor's opinion.  You may no longer need them.

Q.  Are you going to expect me to stop my medication?

No, absolutely not.  I do however tell you to monitor your levels and consult your doctor.  It is possible that you may require changes to meds as your body adjusts to your new food choices ... but that's up to your doctor.

Q.  I am newly dx and don't understand much of what I've seen about T2.  Will I understand what's in your book?

Yes I'm sure you'll understand it.  (Is this because you've seen me quoting medical research in some of the DD posts?)  Members on Diabetes Daily come from all walks of life and some are more academic than others.  I enjoy the process of analysing complex subjects and reading research and comparing opinions with others on the Diabetes Daily forum ... but in my books I keep everything easy to read and understand. (I do the 'hard work' of reading the research ... and you get the much easier job of just reading my brief summaries.)

Start by reading How to Save Money, Lose Weight and Improve Your Health in a Diabetes World first.  That's enough to get you going.  And read the 'Monthly Motivators' as they arrive.  You can ignore the other bonus books if you like ... but they are there if you need them. (Remember, they are not costing you anything in the Bonus Pack deal.)  The only other book you absolutely must open and take a look at is the one I will send you at the end of the first month.  It's a bit like an encyclopedia (lol) because it is so big ... but it lists all the foods individually and you only read the parts that interest you.  They are also easy to find, and easy to read.

Q.  Is it true you give gardening hints?

ROFL!  Yes ... and over the years I've found that many people I've helped with diabetes have followed my lead and grown the 'important' things.  Particularly medicinal herbs ... but some of them now have very impressive vegetable gardens as well.  (No, I don't tell you how to grow your whole garden although I might just write a book like that one day in the future.)

I'm told I'm the only author who has included gardening tips in a book about diabetes ... but I'm also the only author who has included a bunch of my other tips as well. Most people think that's a good thing.  It's nice to get something that's not just a rewrite of what everyone else is saying. 

Q.  What is "Generations of Diet?"?

'Generations of Diet' is an e-book I wrote that includes my personal observations, quotes from various research outlets ... and my reflections on interpreting that research.  It is really just a 'further discussion' document that has proven helpful to people who need an 'extra boost' to start (or continue) making appropriate changes to their diet and lifestyle.

I refer to it as 'food for thought'.  If you find yourself sliding into your old way of thinking, read 'Generations of Diet'.
