Product Description

Hypoglycemia literally means low blood sugar. It occurs when the level of blood sugar in the body is too low to adequately fuel the body. Reactive hypoglycemia is hypoglycemia that occurs in response to eating certain types of food. When there is not enough glucose in the blood for the body to function properly or when the descent of blood sugar occurs too quickly, multiple symptoms can occur. The symptoms can be mild, moderate, or severe. You might think if one is experiencing low blood sugar; the answer would be to just eat more sugar. But, for people with reactive hypoglycemia, that only makes symptoms worse.

Blood sugar conditions have been on the rise not only in the United States, but worldwide. Conditions such as Diabetes, Pre-Diabetes, Impaired Glucose Tolerance, Syndrome X, and Reactive Hypoglycemia are becoming more prevalent.

This is the story of my life with reactive hypoglycemia. This book will take you on my journey of how I went from a person who ate any and everything, to someone who achieved better health by taking control over my diet.

If you suffer from this condition or know someone who does, this book will provide insight into how to manage this condition. While there is not "cure" for reactive hypoglycemia, it can be managed so that you live a normal life.

I hope this book is an inspiration and that it shows you that with discipline and proper food selection, you can live a normal and productive life with reactive hypoglycemia.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, March 8, 2008

By	D. Greenwood "dg" (beaumont, tx) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is not worth $10.95 - $4 or $5 maybe... It is a discription of ONE person's experience. The grammar mistakes distracted me.

I was expecting a book, not a pamphlet.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth the read., November 9, 2009

By	Valerie D. Gitt (In the cold mountains of North Carolina!) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is very poorly written, not only in context but also in grammatical errors. The author has sentences that run together and are confusing. I did not gain any knowledge, other than the authors' history. I do not feel this book offers anything substantial to the reader.
