What most people call a lifelong disease, I call a temporary condition.
My career in wellness began in cardiac rehab more than 25 years ago when I became intrigued by the role of exercise in lowering blood sugar. If exercise could lower blood sugar, what else could?
I studied the research to find other things that lowered blood sugar. And from what I learned, I created Erasing Type 2 Diabetes.
This cutting-edge program helps people lose weight, lower their blood sugar, and stop taking diabetes meds, forever.
We've known the huge impact of diet on blood sugar since 1934. That's when Sir Harold Himsworth detailed the effects of diet on blood sugar levels. Himsworth clarified that high-carbohydrate foods, like oatmeal and rice, keep blood sugar low. In contrast, he showed that high-fat foods, like eggs and chicken, raise blood sugar.
The fix for high blood sugar is clear.
It's been 90 years since Himsworth's ground-breaking discovery. But the type 2 diabetes epidemic rages on;127 million Americans have diabetes or prediabetes.
Why is no one talking about this?
Because there’s power in a community, I’ve joined Sage Circle Alliance. Connecting with other plant-based advocates will amplify my voice and my message.
In turn, I'll help amplify the voices of other members of Sage Circle Alliance. We’re a mixed bunch. We're health coaches and physicians. We're marketing experts, photographers, and business strategists. We're chefs and recipe creators. And we do even more.
In our own way, we focus on the age-old power of plants for achieving lasting well-being. We advocate for the safety of animals. And we have the awareness that our modern lifestyle is impacting our planet.
My passion for plant-based living goes beyond my work. Plant-based for 17 years, I’m a wife, a mother to two 20-something sons, and a pet parent to Leo, our Puerto Rican rescue. My eldest son is 100% plant-based, and my husband is happy to eat what I prepare. Plants!
I commute to work via bicycle to do my part for the environment and to help stay fit and strong.
Type 2 diabetes, if left to fester over years and decades, can have dreadful outcomes. I know that I can’t reach all 127 million. But the ones who I do reach will have hope for a life without fingersticks, diabetes medications, blindness, or kidney failure.
Everyone deserves to hear this life-changing and life-saving message.
