Diabetic Athlete's HandbookThis is an excellent book for all diabetics. I found it especially useful because I am a type 1 (juvenile) diabetic and for years have been trying to regulate my blood sugars during and after exercise while using the pump. It also helped me with trying to figure out which exercises are best for me (weight lifting, aerobics, and more. The book also gives examples of young, old people with diabetes and how they handle their blood sugars while exercising.

As a person with Type 1 diabetes and someone who presents frequently to groups of people wanting to know how to control their diabetes while leading an active life, the "Diabetic Athlete's Handbook" is an excellent resource. If you want to know how to maximize your athletic ability without allowing diabetes to become a hindrance, get this book. It covers the physiology as well as the practical aspects needed to become the best you can be. I often give this book away to a lucky attendee at a presentation who always leaves with a smile.
