The Circadian Diabetes Code: Discover the Right Time to Eat, Sleep, and Exercise to Prevent and Reverse Prediabetes and Diabetes

Very easy to read, understand and practical applicable information that changes your health.

Conflicts at times with the nutritarian way of living but nevertheless well worth the read. I learned a lot and have benefited immensely. I’m a nutritarian.

4.5 StarsThis is a comprehensive guide to preventing, managing and even potentially reversing type 2 diabetes. No one would argue that eating a moderate, well-balanced diet and getting regular exercise are important to achieving optimal health. Based on his research into the circadian rhythms of our bodies, this author demonstrates that knowing when to eat and exercise is just as important.The book is divided into three parts. Part 1 provides an in-depth discussion of prediabetes, diabetes and metabolic syndrome as well as circadian rhythms. Drawing on personal research as well as published results by other health professionals, Dr. Panda describes how circadian rhythms become out of sync (aka internal “broken clocks”) and their impact on diabetes. Part 2 includes chapters on how to enhance your circadian rhythm by managing food intake (what and when), optimal times for exercise, and tips for ensuring quality sleep. Part 3 concludes with a chapter on working effectively with your physician when implementing this program and a practical plan for getting started with a 12-Week challenge.The content is well-organized and written in clear, easily understood language. At times is becomes a bit dry with so much data to underscore the validity of the author’s approach, but there are well-placed case studies and simple, but effective charts and diagrams to balance the text. I’m not a fan of the “one-size-fits-all” approach that generalizes health advice and guidelines, so I was happy to see that there is enough diversity built into this model to accommodate different lifestyles and preferences.There was one area that disappointed me. While Dr. Panda points out that this approach is not a “diet,” he does discuss food choices. Included in the lists of recommended foods were tofu and artificial sweeteners, which seemed at odds with what is now considered a “healthy, well-balanced diet.”My thanks to the author, the publisher, and NetGalley for the privilege of reviewing this book. The opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

With The Circadian Diabetes Solution Satchin Panda has given us another wonderfully instructive guide to improving our health. The book is geared towards anyone looking to possibly prevent, control, or in some cases reverse diabetes but his advice and recommendations could be beneficial to everyone. If you have read Mr. Panda's previous book, The Circadian Code, then you need not read this one unless you are specifically interested in diabetes. Whole sections of The Circadian Code can be found in the diabetes solution verbatim. The plan centers around intermittent fasting but in a realistic, attainable manner. The book begins with a very informative explanation of what diabetes is and how it affects every part and system of the body. He explains how diabetes can be linked to broken circadian rhythms and offers advice on how to better manage the disease and reduce the damage that it can cause. All in all, it seems like sound advice that would be worth trying. The author does recommend discussing it with you doctor beforehand especially if you are on medication. Disclosure: I received a free copy from Rodale Books in exchange for a free and unbiased review.

I enjoyed this book very much. It has good, easy to understand explanations of the dynamics of how the body utilizes glucose/sugar. The second section on the timing of eating, exercise and sleep was informative and made sense. To me it’s much easier to follow instructions if they are explained and make sense. If they don’t resonate I’m less likely to follow them. The section on the 12 week sounds fairly easy to follow. I like that it works in 2 week segments so as not to be so overwhelming that you end up quitting before really even starting.

Excellent, concise, and easy to read. This is very usable stuff and not even hard to implement. The science is there and this book draws from science to make a compelling case for returning to a more logical way to eat. I purchased the book in a bookstore but I'm leaving a review here hoping that others will see it.

Decent book except for the chapter on what to eat. You can tell he leans toward vegetarianism which is probably okay for some people. I prefer to get most of my protein from meat. He also recommends using aspartame and other artificial sweeteners. Sorry but aspartame, Splenda and other artificial sweeteners are pure genetically modified junk food.

Gostei. Com algumas coisas bem interessantes. Umas partes monótonas. Mas você pode aprender tudo o q é interessante ouvindo podcast que o autor apareça

Excelente metodo para controlar diabetes tipo 2. Reducción de peso y mejorar niveles de hemoglobina glicosidada. Lo practico desde hace 5 meses. Excelentes resultados.

Excellent book, very helpful information and could very well prove to be lifesaving

Imparts more knowledge on health

I wish I had this code available to me much sooner.Five reasons why this has helped me;1. Time Restricted Fasting/ IF is doable as a life style.2. Mediterranean Diet and cutting starchy carbs is not daunting.3. Exercise is great and 10,000 steps per day can be achieved.4. Sleeping for 8 hours is good for repairing cells.5. Solvable fibre, such as in psyllium works wonders for your biome and lowering cholesterol.
