About the Authors
Stuart A. Seale, M.D.
Stuart A. Seale,
M.D., board-certified
family physician
and co-author of
The 30-Day Diabetes
Miracle (Penguin,
New York 2008) has
helped thousands of
patients over the past
quarter century. While
managing a solo family
practice in Springfield,
Missouri for 21 years, he treated an increasing number
of patients who suffered from lifestyle-related diseases,
including obesity. This experience encouraged him
to learn more about treating the cause of these
conditions, not just how to control the symptoms.
He now serves as the medical director for
Ardmore Institute of Health and is the medical
director, physician, and educator for Lifestyle Center of
America’s diabetes and weight management programs
in Sedona, Arizona.
Dr. Seale graduated from Loma Linda University
School of Medicine in 1979 and completed a family
practice residency at the University of Missouri in 1983.
He has received the 3-year AMA Physician Recognition
Award eight times, most recently in 2007.

Diana Fleming, Ph.D., L.D.N.
Diana Fleming, Ph.D. was cofounder and
comanager of Country Life Vegetarian Restaurants
in New York City and London and a cooking
consultant for Harvard University and Wellesley
College. She earned her Ph.D. in nutrition at Tufts
University in Boston. All four of her thesis papers
were published in the American Journal of Clinical
Nutiriton.
Diana coauthored The 30-Day Diabetes
Miracle Cookbook (Penguin, New York 2008) where
her knowledge and expertise were valuable in
developing tasty high-fiber, plant-based recipes
that helped readers achieve significant diabetes
relief and weight loss.
She joined the staff at the Lifestyle Center
of America in 2002, serving as Director of
Nutritional Services since 2003. Too often nutrition
professionals
don’t know how
to take the theory
of nutrition from
research to the plate.
Not so with Diana.
She has a passion for
nutrition, translating
into her personal
love for cooking,
baking, and eating.

Two years later, she
completed a fellowship in Lifestyle Medicine at
the Lifestyle Center of America.
As a staff physician at the Lifestyle Center
of America, Dr. Sherard educates patients
to recapture their health and to successfully
achieve weight loss. This is accomplished when
nutrition, exercise, and behavior treatment are
used together. Her warm personality enables
Dr. Sherard to build great friendships with her
patients.
Dr. Sherard’s interest in Lifestyle Medicine
began as she worked as a volunteer at the
Wildwood Lifestyle Center and Hospital located
