The Dangers of Unstable Blood Sugar

As you will learn in the class, there are many dangers of having high blood sugars for hours on end, day after day, year after year. When the internal organs and blood vessels of the body are constantly bathed with high blood sugar, damage occurs which can lead to heart disease, circulatory problems, heart attack, kidney disease and damage to the vessels of the eyes.

Learn How to Keep Blood Sugar Stable

Participants in the program learn how to create meals and snacks that keep the blood sugar stable and low. They receive instruction on how to lower blood sugar using whole nutrient dense foods, rejecting processed foods and eliminating sugar.
