Diabetes Black Belt: The Blood Sugar Solution

April 2, 2012

The Blood Sugar Solution, an exciting new book on diabesity by Dr. Mark Hyman, offers some new thinking on how to best manage blood sugar, which is an issue at the core of both diabetes and obesity, or diabesity.

Dr. Hyman has done a remarkable amount of research on blood sugar and offers a variety of offline and online tools to help you fight back in the war against diabetes. He provides both basic and advanced plans, each to be customized to your individual needs. Perhaps more than anything else in the book, he tries to help readers re-think their relationship with food in an attempt to help everyone clean up their eating habits.

Dr. Hyman includes seven steps to overcome diabesity that include both body and mind, including the use of dietary supplements as needed.

As always, how much or how little of this program you want to use is up to you. There is a ton of good information here, but like anything else in life, you need to decide if this is the best program for you. It may well be that you can use bits and pieces of Dr. Hyman's approach along with suggestions from your own doctor. If you do decide to go on Dr. Hyman's program, make sure you consult with your doctor first.
