Pandemic of Diabetes: Evidence-Based Reboot of Our Understanding of Type 2 Diabetes

Type 2 diabetes forces hundreds of millions of people to change their lifestyles, habits, and affects emotions. In recent years, endocrinologists and nutritionists have developed numerous preventive and supportive programs. But they are not always enough unless one applies critical thinking. The book Pandemic of Diabetes is about understanding this disease, how to systematically reduce risks associated with type 2 diabetes, why both diet and mood are equally important, how to feed the brain sustainably with energy, and how a spoonful of sugar is related to sleep. Professor Merlin Thomas heads the diabetes laboratory at Monash University in Melbourne, where he leads research on new treatment methods for this global disease. He is the author of the books Live Life to the Fullest and Slow Aging, and a promoter of a healthy lifestyle without excessive restrictions. The series Summa rerum, Latin for 'the totality of all that exists' - is a collection of popular science books dedicated to accessible and evidence-based explanations of objective reality, from authors affiliated with leading scientific institutions.
