THIS LOW-BUDGET, handy-sized book has been written primarily for patients with type 2 diabetes to motivate them to self-manage their condition. However, it is an equally valuable reference for healthcare professionals. The three colour-coded sections offer appropriate levels of information for readers, with interesting illustrations and highlighted boxes to emphasise the details worthy of attention. The dietary advice and gentle physical exercises supported by photographs would be useful for health professionals to adapt for patients for individualised fitness programmes according to their specific needs.
这本低成本、便于携带的书主要是为2型糖尿病患者编写的，旨在激励他们自我管理病情。然而，它对医疗保健专业人员来说也是一本同样有价值的参考资料。三个颜色编码的部分为读者提供了适当程度的信息，配有有趣的插图和突出显示的方框以强调值得关注的细节。书中有照片支持的饮食建议和温和的体育锻炼内容，医疗保健专业人员可根据患者的具体需求进行调整，以制定个性化的健身计划。
