Perhaps it is true, but anecdotal evidence is not good evidence. Perhaps this worked for the author, but having consulted a couple of Dr.s, (also anecdotal), it has been suggested to me that I should consider something a bit more balanced. It is possible to end diabetes, without having to go to such extremes.

Don’t bother with this book and save your money for better things. Dr. Berstein’s Diabetes Solution is by far the best book on managing diabetes. It is better written, more complete, and easier to understand.

Mr. McCulley’s book is an interesting personal tale. Somehow, he believes his personal experience represents some sort of universal medical truth. It is anything but.
This book is entirely theory, and theory with more holes in it than a Swiss cheese factory. He presents absolutely no clinical studies to substantiate his theories. His theories of the cause and treatment of diabetes are totally untested in any population of diabetics. He has not done the scientific work of proving his theories.
His characterization of “dead” foods and “live” foods is bizarre. His insistence that prescription and over-the-counter medications are “dead foods” that should be avoided at all costs is on its face ridiculous. Eventually, we all get sick. Eventually, we all need medications. Eventually, we all die.
His prescription of eating large amounts of wild salmon ignores the heavy metal contamination with copper, cobalt, and cadmium present in wild salmon.
The rest of his book is no more than everyday common sense advice – exercise, eat vegetables, test your blood sugar, avoid trans fats, etc. that all diabetics should already know.
The major problem with this book is that it can raise unrealistic expectations that all diabetics can be cured, so that they no longer need medications. While all diabetics can benefit from proper diet and exercise, almost all type 1’s and many, if not most, type 2’s will continue to require medications.
Mr. McCulley’s dietary theories would be much more convincing if he had subjected them to proper scientific clinical testing before trying to make a profit off of them.

I didn’t find this book as enlightening as I thought it would be. I am not into Detoxing the body as the author is.
I think the write-up to promote the book should have indicated that this book is religious in nature as well as an opinion of the author.
On the positive side, there are some correct facts and to some could be very motivational.

Wow! Thanks for reminding me that “uncurable” means man has yet to “discover” the cure. Spirit is the one constant. It was, is and always will be. Chapter 13 reminded me that man’s spirit is his most valuable asset. I move forward to greater success, health and wholeness.
