3.0 out of 5 stars review, August 7, 2008

By	W. Parker (TX, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Keep in mind this is a short book- 25 pages. Fairly informative. Is a good, quick read for someone that is not suffering from reactive hypoglylcemia but would like to understand what is going on in another's body. A bit too technical for someone trying to rebalance their body that is being ravaged by the condition. Would reccommend The Low Blood Sugar Handbook by E. Krimmel for simple, practical information on how to manage hypoglycemia.

4.0 out of 5 stars The best description of my experience since being diagnosed., September 3, 1998

By A Customer

The explanation of hypoglycemia in this book is the best explanation I have come across since being diagnosed with it in 1979. The book describes my experience better than the explanation of any of the doctors I've been to (which are many) and better than anything else I've read (which isn't a whole lot). The history of the identification of hypoglycemia by Dr. Seale Harris and the evolution of the medical community's attitudes toward the disease are interesting, but a little confusing.
