Inhaltsangabe

Do you ever feel exhausted and never seem to have the energy to do the things you know you should do? Do you need more energy? What if you could gain strength and energy, feel better, and "win your battle against Diabetes?" In this book, learn several “common sense” ways to help! You will learn critical insights to practice easily, like increasing your energy producers (mitochondria) in each cell by moving more (work up to 10,000 steps a day, speeding up your pace for part of them), standing up at least 32 times a day (use squats), losing weight by moving more every thirty minutes, and strength or resistance training. Use your muscles with Glut4 glucose transporters in addition to insulin to clear blood sugar levels and control blood glucose.

Do you struggle with your control of blood sugar? I’ve had Type 1 Diabetes now for sixty-four+ years, and I know from my own experience that “it’s not as easy as it looks.” My first thirty years with diabetes were much more complicated than the last thirty-four+ because I’ve learned from the "school of hard knocks," medical research, and the wisdom of God how to win over diabetes. This book is for you whether you have Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes because it is about lifestyle. This book includes the power of optimism, or God's wisdom - the Bible, medical research, and uplifting, informative stories that will help motivate you to practice these approaches!

From my first book, "The Way of Wisdom for Diabetes," one reviewer said, “The first book that has really been helpful in my 30-year battle with diabetes.” In this book, the third edition of 17 Wise Ways, I've added more than sixty pages with essential information about movement, nutrition, fasting, and the side effects of weight loss medications and what you need to do if you are already taking one of them. As you read, you will see the fascinating story of how Dr. Frederick Banting and Charles Best discovered insulin and how insulin saved the lives of several young people dying of Type 1 Diabetes! From their stories, you will also see why insulin is still prescribed to people with Type 2 Diabetes but shouldn't be. You will learn these ten essential ways to control and even overcome diabetes . . .

• Exercise after each meal,
• Eat fewer carbs and more protein and vegetables,
• Eat carbohydrates last as you slowly eat,
• Stay optimistic each day with gratitude,
• Eat lunch, walk, and take a POWER NAP,
• Sleep well each night,
• Fast in the evening and morning,
• Stay hydrated to prevent high blood glucose,
• Continually keep track of blood glucose,
• Take advantage of opportunities to help others.

You can make needed lifestyle changes, and this book will make it easier by using 17 wise “common sense” ways. I have successfully lived with Type 1 Diabetes now for sixty-four+ years. For over thirty years, I've facilitated hospital and community diabetes support groups, doing monthly educational seminars. More than fourteen years+ ago, I was awarded the 50-Year Medal for Diabetes Management by the Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston. The Joslin Diabetes Center is affiliated with Harvard Medical School. I am a participant in their medical research study of medalists, which is discovering protective factors to prevent complications in those with diabetes, like kidney damage!
