Most books tell you what the authors think you should be doing
about your diabetes. 50 Secrets of the Worlds Longest Living People
with Diabetes tells you what long-lived people with diabetes
actually are doing about their diabetes... Their stories are
inspiring as well as instructive.
Gretchen Becker, author,
The First YearType 2 Diabetes and Prediabetes

While at the University of Michigan we developed the notion
of patient empowerment and taking control, which Sheri
Colberg and Steven Edeman have captured in a most elegant
manner with case histories of people who have thrived for many
years despite having diabetes. There is no greater eloquence
than that expressed by patients themselves.
Aaron Vinik, M.D., Ph.D., director,
Strelitz Diabetes Research Center

Camaraderie is truly what soothes the diabetic breast. As Im
reading read through this book, my neck is getting tired from
the constant nodding and saying Yes! Yes! This is what its all
about! Who knows more about living successfully with diabetes
than the people who have done it for so many years. After Ive
soaked up every word, I might be willing to share it with my
patients.
Gary Scheiner, C.D.E., author, Think Like a Pancreas and
The Ultimate Guide to Accurate Carb Counting

50 Secrets of the Longest Living People with Diabetes is full of
inspiring examples. Sheri Colbergs early belief that she would
suffer inevitable consequences of her diabetes struck a
particularly strong chord with me... Indeed, diabetes is treatable and
is more and more treatable all the time, while many other
chronic diseases are not. This is another of the excellent and
positive points that these two authors make throughout this
important book.
David Mendosa, coauthor, The New Glucose Revolution
What Makes My Blood Glucose Go Up... and Down? ,
and author, Losing Weight with Your Diabetes Medication

Encouraging, informative, and easy to read... this is my kind
of diabetes book! If nothing else, youll be delighted to discover
how many of the secrets youve already mastered.
