Maintaining healthy blood sugar levels is a key to vitality, energy, and well-being-and not just for people with diabetes. It has far-reaching effects on our health, emotions, mental stability, and ability to heal. Blood sugar is greatly affected by the foods you eat and the carbohydrates they contain. But keeping a proper blood sugar balance is a constant challenge in this culture of carb-laden convenience foods, fast food, and addictive foods. We all need carbohydrates, but most of eat far more than the body can cope with efficiently. This can put us on the path to weight gain, diabetes, and other health crises.
