Includes bibliographical references and index.
Approximately 29 million Americans are diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes annually. Of that number, only about 36% (10.44 million diabetes sufferers) achieve satisfactory medical outcomes and would need additional help - rarely available - to reliably control their glucose levels. Contrary to popular belief, although anti-diabetic medications can lower sugar levels, nevertheless they have a poor performance track record because inflammation in the blood vessels persists. This book details recent scientific findings that cardiovascular, kidney, vision, peripheral nervous system, and other body damage caused by chronic high levels of blood sugar (hyperglycemia) in Type 2 diabetes is actually due to excessive generation of unopposed free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS).
