It's estimated that over 29 million Americans suffer from blood sugar imbalances, such as diabetes, and that by the year 2020, half of Americans will be either pre-diabetic or diabetic.
This disease is becoming incredibly problematic in children.
Unfortunately, many don't realize how dangerous these imbalances can be.
Why are blood sugar problems such a huge problem in our modern day and age?
According to Dr. Jason Jones, founder of Optimum Wellness Chiropractic, convenience is greatly to blame. Foods are so accessible now; food is available anytime, anywhere. Plus, there are so many foods that are overly processed and high in sugar and unhealthy fats.
Dr. Jones says that balancing your diet is the most important way to keep your blood sugar levels in check.
He joins Dr. Susanne to share the best methods for balancing your blood sugar, as well as the importance of the concepts of glycemic index and glycemic load.
