Book Description
"It is, of course, too early to say how far reaching and how permanent the effects of such a diet will be in the severe and in the milder cases of diabetes. All we can say is that thus far it appears to work admirably well. To all who wish to give their patients the benefit of this treatment I can heartily recommend this book." -Richard C. Cabot, M.D., 1916 "This book furnishes to the general practitioner in compact form the details of the latest treatment....It presents the clinical application of the work done in recent years by Dr. Allen at Harvard and The Rockefeller Institute. This method of treatment, carried out by Dr. Allen at The Rockefeller Hospital, and by the staff at the Massachusetts General Hospital, has proved very successful. To all who have been tried by this baffling disease, this little volume, with its description of treatment, tests and diets, will be of great service." -Southern California Practitioner "One of the greatest advances ever made in the therapeutics of this disease. The physician who expects to give his diabetic patients the benefit of this new method of treatment must have a good and clear idea of it himself. In this little volume he can get all the data he would need for the successful management of his cases of diabetes with the so-called 'Allen' treatment.'" -The Journal of the Indiana State Medical Association "This work can be heartily recommended as a complete and reliable guide in the Allen treatment of diabetes." -Northwest Medicine "The Allen treatment has definitely proved its worth in the difficult problem of the treatment of diabetes and the satisfactory prosecution of the treatment can be reached only when the patient is possessed of at least much of the information which is to be found in this book. It is probably not too much to say that every diabetic should own and study this book and many physicians can profit by its use." -Medical Record "The fact that this little volume is now in its third edition only two years after its first appearance is indicative of the reception given it by the medical profession. Such a reception was quite deserved, for the book is a very valuable guide to the proper conduct of Allen's revolutionary treatment of diabetes. The great drawback of this form of treatment has been the difficulty encountered in the proper adjustment of the diets after the initial period of starvation and the present volume relieves the practitioner of much of this difficulty by giving him an extensive series of very carefully worked out diets, sufficient to cover almost every need that might arise. The individual diets are presented serially, much in the order in which they would probably be used in a given case....Each diet is arranged for all of the meals of the day; the amount of each food is stated in terms of grams of weight as well as in domestic measures, and the protein, fat, and carbohydrate content is given along with the total caloric value. I addition to the diets, the book contains several illustrative case records to make clear the modes of application of the treatment, a short review of the several approved laboratory tests which must be carried out frequently in every case, a chapter of tested recipes, one on food values and a summary of analyses of the protein and carbohydrate contents of a number of diabetic foods. In brief, the authors have succeeded in covering the subject of the starvation treatment of diabetes from its practical side in an adequate, concise, and thoroughly utilitarian way." -International Record of Medicine and General Practice Clinics

Book Description
Although Dr. Allen's modifications of the classical treatment of saccharine diabetes have been in use only for about two years in the hands of their author, and for a much shorter time in those of other physicians, it seems to me already clearly proven that Dr. Allen has notably advanced our ability to combat the disease. One of the difficulties which is likely to prevent the wide adoption of his treatment is the detailed knowledge of food composition and calorie value which it requires. Dr. Hill's and Miss Eckman's little book should afford substantial aid to all who have not had opportunity of working out in detail the progressive series of diets which should be used after the starvation period. These diets, worked out by Miss Eckman, head of the diet kitchen at the Massachusetts General Hospital, have seemed to me to work admirably with the patients who have taken them, both in hospital and private practice. The use of thrice boiled vegetables, as recommended by Dr. Allen, seems to be a substantial step in advance, giving, as it does, a considerable bulk of food without any considerable carbohydrate portion, and with the semblance of some of the forbidden vegetables. It is, of course, too early to say how far reaching and how permanent the effects of such a diet will be in the severe and in the milder cases of diabetes. All we can say is that thus far it appears to work admirably well. To all who wish to give their patients the benefit of this treatment I can heartily recommend this book.

Unveiling Diabetes - Historical Milestones in Diabetology

ISBN: 3318067342
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
A history of diabetology told by renowned contributors, many have themselves already become a part of diabetes history. A must-have for every diabetologist! Diabetologists, diabetes educators, and many interested readers will appreciate this book. What is more, countless celebrations are planned for the 100th anniversary of the discovery of insulin: this book provides numerous illustrations, accounts of personal experiences, and critical remarks on the history of diabetology – in addition to the history of insulin. It spans an arc from antiquity to the work of Claude Bernard, Paul Langerhans, Josef von Mering, Apollinaire Bouchardat, Oskar Minkowski, E.P. Joslin, and F.M. Allen. The history of insulin is presented from the perspective of diabetologists from Scotland, Spain, Germany, and Poland. The history of oral antidiabetics is told by Harald Lebovitz, and the chapter about glitazones by Edwin Gale reads like a spy novel! Pierre Lefèbvre describes the work of the diabetologist Jean Pirart and the history of glucagon. Sir George Alberti has provided a chapter about the therapy of ketoacidosis, to which he himself made groundbreaking contributions. Nephropathy is presented by Hans-Henrik Parving, and Eva Kohner, Ronald Klein and Barbara E.K. Klein have contributed a chapter on retinopathy. Other contemporary topics such diabetes in pregnancy, diabetes technology, psychosocial aspects of diabetes, and the history of the EASD and ADA are also included in this book.
