"Glucose, or blood sugar, is a tiny molecule in our body that has a huge impact on our health. It enters our bloodstream through the starchy or sweet foods we eat. In the past five years, scientists have discovered that glucose affects everyone-not just people with diabetes. If we have too much glucose in our system, we put on weight, feel tired and hungry all the time, have skin breakouts, develop wrinkles, and our hormonal balance suffers. Over time, too much glucose contributes to chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome, cancer, dementia, and heart disease. In Glucose Revolution, scientist and researcher Jessie Inchauspé offers timeless lessons to lower your glucose levels quickly-and for good-without going on a diet. She shares simple, surprising, and science-based strategies and firsthand accounts from people who've tried them and have seen incredible results."-- Provided by publisher.
