Truthfully, this book is so thin that it is a waste of $5.95...Go to the library and check out something similar for free and photocopy what you need...I will never use the book I bought -- same info is readily available online and elsewhere.

I have to say that I was a bit set back when I received this booklet,The Official Pocket Guide for Diabetics. I was expecting something a bit more helpful for someone who had just been diagnosed with Diabetes.
I suppose that it is ok, but would not recommend paying more than a couple of dollars for this product.
I wound up going to another bookstore and purchasing a much more concise and helpful book.

This book is not very helpful. The information, once it has been learned---ELSEWHERE--or, far away, long ago, on a distant planet---I can't imagine anyone needing this kind of help to do these conversions.

Everyone should have one of these. Especially those new to the diabetic lifestyle. Packed with information and helps one make sensible food choices to keep blood sugar in check.
