The instant New York Times bestseller.

A groundbreaking method to master all types of diabetes by reversing insulin resistance.

Current medical wisdom advises that anyone suffering from diabetes or prediabetes should eat a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet. But in this revolutionary book, Cyrus Khambatta, PhD, and Robby Barbaro, MPH, rely on a century of research to show that advice is misguided. While it may improve short-term blood glucose control, such a diet also increases the long-term risk for chronic diseases like cancer, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, chronic kidney disease, and fatty liver disease.

The revolutionary solution is to eat a low-fat plant-based whole-food diet, the most powerful way to reverse insulin resistance in all types of diabetes: type 1, type 1.5, type 2, prediabetes, and gestational diabetes.

As the creators of the extraordinary and effective Mastering Diabetes Method, Khambatta and Barbaro lay out a step-by-step plan proven to reverse insulin resistance-the root cause of blood glucose variability- while improving overall health and maximizing life expectancy. Armed with more than 800 scientific references and drawing on more than 36 years of personal experience living with type 1 diabetes themselves, the authors show how to eat large quantities of carbohydrate-rich whole foods like bananas, potatoes, and quinoa while decreasing blood glucose, oral medication, and insulin requirements. They also provide life-changing advice on intermittent fasting and daily exercise and offer tips on eating in tricky situations, such as restaurant meals and family dinners. Perhaps best of all: On the Mastering Diabetes Method, you will never go hungry.

With more than 30 delicious, filling, and nutrient-dense recipes and backed by cutting-edge nutritional science, Mastering Diabetes will help you maximize your insulin sensitivity, attain your ideal body weight, improve your digestive health, gain energy, live an active life, and feel the best you've felt in years.

A Complete Guide

As I listened to the audiobook, every question that popped into my mind on a topic was literally answered in the upcoming sentences. I greatly appreciate all the details and explanations that helped me understand insulin resistance and what I can do about it. While trying to transition to a low fat WFPB diet, I have had trouble knowing what a meal should look like in terms of portion size. This is the first resource I've read that answered that question. Love, love , love the meal plan that includes simple to prepare meals. The book is so practical, that I for the first time, I feel like this is doable. It is obvious this comes from lived experience. Thank you Cyrus and Robby!

Excellent book even if your not a Type 1 diabetic! Everyone should read it!!!

I gain weight after a total hysterectomy and didn’t know why. After my own search to find out why I gain weight I realized I was insulin resistance. Not Good! After discovering and reading Mastering Diabetes I learned the truth about food and what’s causing my mysterious weight gain. Thank you Robbie and Cyrus for ALL your research and fact sharing. This morning I made myself blended beets with turmeric and ginger before my walk. My health improves daily when I follow your guidance. Thanks again!!!

Great book

Really enjoyed this book and helped me to understand my pre diabetes. Everyone should read this book!

The eating plan

I started the Mastering Diabetes plan with hesitation because I've tried many other different diets. I've been eating whole foods low fat plant based diet and my glucose readings have been amazing! Even after eating high carb meals, my numbers are in the 120-130 never before have I seen these numbers in this range. Please try their plan because it really really does work! I'm not a scientist and I kind of understand the process of what they're saying but in reality, I don't need to completely understand it to know that it works and it's working!
