Type 2 diabetes has been regarded as an incurable, lifelong condition for centuries. Even worse, it seemed to be inevitably progressive. When you got the diagnosis, it was as though above the clinic door was written: Abandon hope all ye who enter here. Professor Roy Taylor is the world's leading expert on type 2, the man who in 2006 finally found the missing piece in the scientific jigsaw that paved the way for a cure.

In this distilled version of his best-selling Life Without Diabetes, Professor Roy Taylor offers a brilliantly concise explanation of what happens to us when we get type 2 and how we can reverse it permanently. Taylor's research has demonstrated that type 2 is caused by just one factor - too much internal fat in the liver and pancreas - and that to reverse it you need to strip this harmful internal fat out with rapid weight loss.

The food we eat today, high in sugar and easily digestible carbohydrates, is not only making us fat but is putting us at risk of type 2 diabetes, strokes, dementia, cancer and a lifetime on medication. More than a third of adults in the UK now have raised blood sugar levels and most don’t know it. In this timely book, Dr Mosley explains why we pile on dangerous abdominal fat and shows us how to shed it - fast.
