Synopsis

Completely revised and expanded in 2016. Based on the award winning Bloodsugar101.com web site, this book explains what peer-reviewed research published in top medical journals has to say about:

• What is a normal blood sugar? 
• How does diabetes develop? 
• What really causes diabetes?
• What blood sugar levels cause complications? 
• Must you deteriorate? 
• What diet is right for you?
• How can you make that diet work? 
• What medications are safe?
• What supplements lower blood sugar? 

Written in clear and understandable language, this book provides all the tools needed to understand how blood sugar works and achieve blood sugar health."...this book should be read by all diabetics because of the valuable material that cannot be found elsewhere." --Dr. Richard K. Bernstein

About this title

From the Author

This completely revised and updated second edition of my bestseller, Blood Sugar 101, is 40 pages longer than the previous edition. The new content includes sections that answer the most common questions readers have emailed me about since the first edition was published. 
In it you'll find discussions about new topics like what research has learned about dietary and surgical approaches to reversing diabetes that differ from the one we concentrate on. You'll also learn more about when to test, how to test, how to interpret you blood sugar test results, safe exercise strategies, and the use of insulin. Since many new drugs have come onto the market since the first edition was published, this new edition has a greatly expanded section on diabetes drugs, too.

This is the first of a two book series, the "Blood Sugar 101 Library." The second volume is Your Diabetes Questions Answered, published in 2017. It amplifies and extends the information found in this blook using a more informal question and answer format. 

About the Author

Jenny Ruhl, a well-known author of business books, was diagnosed with diabetes in 1998. To answer the questions "What causes diabetes" and "What blood sugars prevent complications" she dug into the medical journals newly available online and spent a year tracking down the facts. The result was the bloodsugar101.com website.
