Smart Blood Sugar

Dr. Marlene Merritt is well-known in the diabetes community, having devoted her career to helping people with their condition, so it only makes sense that she’d come out with her own guide on how to manage the disease effectively. But does Smart Blood Sugar really live up to its promises, or will it be just another disappointment for diabetics?

What is Smart Blood Sugar?

Dr. Marlene Merritt has written a diabetes guide that aims to educate readers about the basics of blood sugar and how to lower it, as well as how to eat healthy and reduce their risk for developing diabetes in the first place. The plan is broken down into three phases, with a one-month break after each phase before moving on to the next one.

The book is intended for people with Type 2 diabetes, although it would be a useful resource for anyone who has the condition or is at risk of developing it. Dr. Merritt starts by explaining how type 2 diabetes develops and what causes it, and goes on to discuss its many damaging effects on the body and mind.

Who is Dr. Marlene Merritt?

Dr. Marlene Merritt has worked in the field of diabetes care and research for over 25 years. Dr. Merritt completed her undergraduate studies at Duke University and her PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University. Excuse me?

What Will You Learn in the Guide?

In this guide, Dr. Merritt will walk you through the following five steps in detail:

1) Making the Connection Between Diabetes and Poor Digestion.

2) Your Digestive System and How to Keep it Healthy.

3) What Causes Insulin Resistance.

4) How to Reduce Insulin Resistance.

5) The Three-Step Plan for Preventing Diabetes Naturally.

How Much Does It Cost?

The price of Dr. Merritt's Diabetes Guide is $97, but it does come with a 60-day money back guarantee if you're not satisfied with the product.

You can download the book in ebook format for just $27, and you can also purchase the book on CD or a physical paperback for an additional cost of $22 each.

All formats of this diabetes guide are available to purchase through Amazon Kindle Books and Audible as well!

What Do Others Have to Say About It?

I was diagnosed with diabetes a few years ago and since then I have been struggling with how to manage my blood sugar levels naturally without having to take any medications. I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews of this book, as I found it to be very helpful and informative. I had been diagnosed with gestational diabetes back in February and have been following the guidelines set by my doctor during my pregnancy which has made a huge difference in my blood sugars.

Pros and Cons

This guide is designed to help diabetics take control of their blood sugar and manage their diabetes in an easy, practical way that doesn't require a doctor's supervision. The book features chapters on what diabetes is, how to live with diabetes, eating healthy, medications and when to take them, exercise and a chapter on emergencies and other issues. There are also helpful tips throughout the book including a list of foods with high protein but low carbs that would be beneficial for diabetics.

Final Thoughts

Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects the way your body processes sugar and carbohydrates. The condition may also increase your risk of developing serious health complications, such as heart disease or kidney failure. Dr. Marlene Merritt's Smart Blood Sugar guide helps you understand how diabetes works and provides strategies for making lifestyle changes to help keep blood sugar under control and manage diabetes symptoms more effectively.
