Not Your Doctor's Diabetes

<p>I am not a doctor. I am a diabetic. I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes thirty years ago at the age of 11.</p><p><br></p><p>I followed all the rules becoming a spokesperson in my community for a diet rich in healthy whole grains as countless doctors and dietitians had recommended. I started a blog about whole grain baking that I eventually turned into a business.</p><p><br></p><p>However during all of this time I was overweight had bad skin and suffered from PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). At the height of my consumption of whole grains and despite my exercise regimen I was 40 pounds overweight had chronic yeast infections and low energy. I was tired and unhappy.</p><p><br></p><p>A random comment from a stranger caused me to start questioning the rules and doing my own research. I learned more about how my body works and made changes to my diet and lifestyle. I felt better within weeks and my health continued to improve for years to come.</p><p><br></p><p>I forged ahead down this path of in-depth research experimenting on myself more and more. I lost weight gained energy and started seeing the best blood sugar levels I'd ever seen. But most importantly I FELT GREAT. Once I figured these things out I wanted to shout them from the rooftops!</p><p>I was so disappointed that no doctor had ever told me these things. I know that most of us with diabetes feel frustrated. They feel shame that despite an honest effort to follow the rules diabetes continues to win.</p><p><br></p><p>In this book I share how to easily optimize your health by naturally enhancing the blood sugar stabilizing powers of the body and facts I have discovered about the potential factors that may be getting in your way.

I believe you can achieve better blood sugar levels have steady energy improve your sleep and feel great by making just a few changes to your daily life the way I have.
