Sliding Scale Diet

The author wrote a book with easy to follow advice and practical insight as to how making changes to your lifestyle can be beneficial. This was written in an informative and nonjudgmental way that made it enjoyable to read.

Really interesting but short book or guide. Gave me lots of ideas and duet thoughts I have not known or used before.

The author strongly promotes a personalized diet program to be used for the treatment of insulin resistance. If the condition is left untreated, insulin resistance is the forerunner to diabetes. Naturally, it's best to nip it in the bud. The prose was easy to read and is recommended for anyone wishing to gather more information on this topic.

I offer my thanks to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for this ARC in exchange for an unbiased review.

First, I want to thank Leonid Altshuler MD and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.

Leonid Altshuler MD wrote Depression, Insomnia, Anxiety How I Healed It All ALT/Sliding Scale Diet I found very interesting read. I myself am always fascinated on reading up on new diets and how they worked for people. I myself since 2004 have lost 193 lbs with the assistance of the Gastric Bypass Surgery and changing my eating habits by sticking to the South Beach Diet religiously. I was interested how his diet cured him of his Depression, Insomnia and Anxiety. Curious to see if he could give me some pointers on how to cure my Insomnia.

Leonid stresses that this information in this book is not intended or implied to be a supplement for any medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. He puts in bold letters and capital letters to never stop taking your medication without consulting with your doctor.

Leonid and I both agree on a similar concept that there is no best or worst diet for two individuals. Everything is strictly individual and it depends on many factors. I have felt this way for many years battling with my weight and with how many different plans I have tried.

This book addresses mental illness, Insulin, insulin resistance, patient education, and prediabetes.

Leonid gives you a look into his diet and the kind of lifestyle he follows.

What I found interesting is he gives advice to those who are vegetarian and don’t eat meat.

I actually wanted to read this because the emphasis was a psychological approach to not just weight loss but dealing with depression, anxiety, insomnia, and stress (all of which my son suffers from).

I found Dr. Altshuler's writing to be right on target. I think anyone who is willing to take a gamble and try a new approach to dealing with not just obesity but their health in general should read this. I highly recommend it.

Thank you Books Go Social and NetGalley for the digital ARC!

This book was informative and challenged my way of thinking about diet. I had recently tried to do other diet and food changes to help with my anxiety and depression but did it based on fads and youtube videos. Dr. Altshuler lays out an understanding, then helps to create plans and understanding to help all to improve mental health with food. Also liked that there were options for meat-eaters, vegans, and vegetarians.
