I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes thirty years ago at the age of 11.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI followed all the rules, becoming a spokesperson in my community for a diet rich in \"healthy\" whole grains as countless doctors and dietitians had recommended. I started a blog about whole grain baking that I eventually turned into a business.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, during all of this time, I was overweight, had bad skin, and suffered from PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). At the height of my consumption of whole grains and despite my exercise regimen, I was 40 pounds overweight, had chronic yeast infections and low energy. I was tired and unhappy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA random comment from a stranger caused me to start questioning the rules and doing my own research.

I know that most of us with diabetes feel frustrated. They feel shame that despite an honest effort to follow the \"rules,\" diabetes continues to win.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book, I share how to easily optimize your health by naturally enhancing the blood sugar stabilizing powers of the body, and facts I have discovered about the potential factors that may be getting in your way.
