Stuart A. Seale, M.D. Stuart A. Seale, M.D. is a board certified family physician and co-author of The 30-Day Diabetes Miracle (Penguin, New York 2008).
He 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 controlling 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., was co-founder and co-manager 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 Nutrition.
Diana co-authored 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.

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 in Wildwood, Georgia, outside her home town of Chattanooga, Tennessee.
