Knowing that my father was around my age when he was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus(T2DM), gives me more impetus to ensure that the same predicament doesn’t befall me and those around me.

It was perhaps this vivid imagery that made me the health-conscious freak that I am today. However, the sheer volume and quality of research shown in this book won me over and I actively promote the ideas from this book to patients during consultations, and perhaps even you if you read my posts on Intermittent Fasting and the Whole Food Plant-Based Diet.ĭiabetes is one of the first diseases that I was exposed to, as I saw my father and aunt popping pills like crazy and injecting insulin religiously from a very young age. Initially, I had my doubts and was frankly skeptical about the book as one should be whenever they hear absolute statements in Medicine. I first read the book when I started Medical School and again a couple of months back when I was doing my Internal Medicine posting.
