Hi Eddie.
Thanks for your post.
Ouch! Dr. Bernstein. That's a Love--Hate name. One thing I've
learned from being on Forums for 8 years. Don't push pumps or Dr.
Bernstein on People who don't want either. Turns them right off.
Discussing them both are Fine however.
I always managed to stay out of the arguments about Bernstein's
diet since I wasn't interested.
For certain, some Diabetics would achieve better control and they
may find Dr. Bernstein's diet and techniques Very acceptable.
For the others who are in control, they wouldn't see much of an
advantage. For those who find comfort in food, those who "just
love food" and for those who have the gene or syndrome that
enables them to eat a lot without feeling full, his diet would be of
no value, unless their meals were made special for them. Most of
these People need hands on motivational/feed back therapy and
support groups near-by them. Buying a book, in most cases, won't
help them much.
I'm Happy that he has helped you Eddie and if you would like to
start a thread about his diet/techniques please feel free. He
probably has tips that would help everyone.
I'm truly sorry to hear of your 2 Friends who have died of kidney
failure.
