The Yates Protocol - by Beverly Yates (Hardcover)

About the Book

"Your blood sugar is not your fault. Type 2 and prediabetes are not caused by body fat, laziness, lack of willpower or inadequate effort. Rather, they are complex and influenced by the chronic wear and tear of living in our toxified, high-stress, and low-nourishment modern world. In The Yates Protocol, Dr. Beverly Yates shares compassionate, practical advice for approaching nutrition, meal timing, sleep, stress, exercise, and strength training to reverse diabetes once and for all. Unlike typical diabetes care approaches, the Yates Protocol doesn't eliminate any food groups and focuses more on what to include, not exclude, to help you find which foods are best for your body. Repair doesn't require restriction, like many doctors and "experts" imply. It requires nourishment. Dr. Yates also offers tools such as a daily eating rhythm and optional intermittent fasting to enhance blood sugar control, improve cravings, and boost energy. Advocating for self-care, setting boundaries, and ultimately reducing stress, she focuses on exercising smarter, not harder. She'll help you test for success and heal as fast as possible with proven GCM and glucometer strategies. Filled with real patient success stories and delicious recipes to help you stay on track, The Yates Protocol provides everything you need to heal for good. It's time to throw out the shame-and-blame model and start on the path to reversing your diabetes today"-- Provided by publisher.
