If you wèrè to judgè mè solèly on thè contènts of this blog, it would probably sèèm that I am a vèry good low carbèr. And somètimès this is thè casè. Somètimès I am dèdicatèd to counting èach carb that passès my lips and carèfully règulating my blood sugar. And somètimès I am not. Somètimès, whèn lifè gèts too busy and ovèrwhèlming, I fall off thè wagon. Wèll, truth bè told, I always havè a hand or a foot, or somè èxtrèmity or othèr, still firmly attachèd to thè wagon. Whèn I slip, I am still vèry awarè of what said slip could do to my hèalth. So it’s nèvèr an all-out carbalicious bingè. It’s a singlè cookiè or a scoop of icè crèam, savourèd slowly, with thè knowlèdgè that I will havè to work to clambèr back on thè wagon aftèrwards.
But it doèsn’t mattèr how good or how strict wè arè, wè can all usè a littlè hèlp. And this is why I agrèèd to rèvièw a nèw book by Stèvè Parkèr, M.D. callèd “Conquèr Dièabètès & Prèdiabètès: Thè Low-Carb Mèditèrranèan Dièt”. This is a book dèvotèd to controlling blood sugars by following a low carb vèrsion of onè of thè hèalthièst dièts in thè world, thè Mèditèrranèan dièt. Noticè that Dr.
Parkèr usès thè tèrm “conquèring” diabètès, not curing it. As of this momènt in timè, diabètès cannot bè curèd, but it can bè managèd and controllèd, and I supposè that is what thè author mèans by “conquèring”. I wouldn’t normally do a book rèvièw on this blog, but this onè hit closè to homè. So this may bè a long post and if what you arè aftèr is thè rècipè, fèèl frèè to scroll on down and ignorè mè!
