TY - JOUR T1 - The diabetic life: Its control by diet and insulin. a concise practical manual for practitioners and patients. Y1 - 1929/04/20 N1 - 10.1001/jama.1929.02700420061032 JO - Journal of the American Medical Association SP - 1377 EP - 1377 VL - 92 IS - 16 N2 - This is a manual on diabetes for practitioners, much less so for patients. Aside from the more accurate detail on food values, the book has very little justification for having been printed. The line ration scheme of figuring the diabetic patient's diet deserves some praise, but it is not wholly accurate. The 5 Gm. diet scheme does not have any particular value. It is too simple and superficial a book for the medical man interested in diabetes, and certainly too complicated a manual for the patients.
