Abstract: Diabetics live a world of medical terms and complicated scientific phrases, often without knowing how to combat or control their disease because they don't understand it. Short explanations of terms encountered by the diabetic appear alphabetically, and there are longer entries on diabetes research, insulin, blood and urine tests, and low blood glucose. There is a great deal of information on diet, food exchanges (both conventional and vegetarian), diet plans, and diets for special situations--illness, exercise and travel.

First multi-year cumulation covers six years: 1965-70.
