"Diabetes is a problem, almost an epidemic of the 21st century," Hilda explains, "it is neither isolated nor confined, and what is important is to understand the implications of the disease and to treat it proactively, imperative if long term complications are to be prevented." 

Today medical research and good medical care help to gain a greater life expectancy. It is vital to control it well, resulting in a healthy and active balanced lifestyle, including exercise, rest and relaxation. 

Her book includes important information such as the differences between Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes, the Glycemic index (G1) and the Glycemic load (GL), general tips for meal planning and for special occasions.
