�People at high risk of exposure for developing type 2 diabetes might be able to stay or foreclose the disease by pickings certain food supplements and making modus vivendi changes, according to a new good Book by Dr. James W. Anderson, an internationally recognised authority on metabolic diseases and system of weights loss and professor emeritus of practice of medicine and clinical nutrition at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine.
Diabetes is a worldwide epidemic, and it is growing at an alarming rate. In 2006, the United Nations declared it an outside health threat comparable to HIV/AIDS. However, emerging evidence suggests that risk of diabetes john be reduced by a combination of weight loss, exercise, dietary changes and the use of supplements called "nutraceuticals," extracts of certain foods purported to have a physiological benefit or furnish protection from disease.
Anderson's book, "Nutraceuticals, Glycemic Health and Type 2 Diabetes," provides an overview of glycemic health and highlights the use of nutraceuticals in the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes. Anderson identifies dietary roughage from unscathed grains as one of the strongest preventive measures for type 2 diabetes. The book also offers an in-depth discussion on certain minerals and herbs that serve in achieving tighter glycemic control.
Anderson collaborated with Vijai K.Pasupuleti, founder of SAI International - a firm engaged in research, consulting and marketing for nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and biotechnolgy companies - to summarize forefront research from all over the human beings and get together the outcomes. Thirty-five scientists from nine-spot countries contributed 18 chapters presenting the latest findings on the role of nutrition in diabetes.
This rising evidence volition allow health care providers to offer the latest in aliment guidance to patients with diabetes. It will encourage producers of foods and supplements to make active ingredients more widely available to consumers, and will enable self-directed individuals to make intelligent choices nigh nutrition supplements to prevent diabetes.

He gives recommendations for specific amounts of minerals to slow progression of diabetes or reverse diabetes in its early stages. Over hundred herbal supplements are evaluated and 11 are assessed to be of potential value for treatment of early diabetes.
Anderson and his colleagues take been doing research on nutrition and diabetes for 35 old age at UK and he has published over 100 research document on this topic.
