5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have To Train Anyone Spending Time with A Diabetic, December 6, 2001

This review is from: Managing Diabetic Hypoglycemia [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Finally a video to explain low blood sugar or insulin reactions for my preschool daughter's teachers. This video is an excellent resource for teachers, relatives, babysitters, and siblings. I have learned that I can talk until I'm blue in the face, about low blood sugar, but until a person is confronted with one, they really don't grasp the concept. This video vividly portrays the mild, moderate, and severe forms of hypoglycemia. It gives the symtoms and portrays the reactions in simple, clear, easy to understand language. I also learned a few new things about the causes of low blood sugar and how to prevent them. What a blessing and resource this video is my daughter's teachers really thought this video helped them tremendously.
