Understanding Blood Sugar
The red, hot vitality pumping through our veins holds tremendous power over how we feel each day.
While we all know blood is our life force, few of us understand how our circulatory systems have a direct impact on whether or not we feel motivated and capable to live out our best lives and seize the day with just as much energy as when we were kids.
Even though many of us have imbalances in our blood sugar or know someone suffering from diabetes or high cholesterol,
there are solutions to reversing its negative effects.
We take a highly complex system and break it down into six 30-minute videos,
so you can clearly understand the purpose of blood sugar, the effects of high and low blood sugar levels in the body,
and what to do to address it. Understanding Blood Sugar gives you the fuel to recognize symptoms of imbalanced blood sugar levels
and ideas for making positive changes in daily habits that will influence the trajectory of your health.
Be your best health advocate and empower your loved ones to do the same.
