Interesting. Would be nice if it works.

My friend turned me on to The Glucose Goddess on Instagram.
Neither of us is diabetic, but we are both interested in improving our overall health and MOODS ?
This book is filled with super easy hacks on how to lower your glucose curve.
Did I mention "super easy?"
Jessie's scientific explanations are easy to follow and include graphs and illustrations.
I really enjoyed her story about what led her into all of this.

Very informative and presented in a non-judgmental, easy to digest, and friendly way. I've heard a lot of criticism of this book from some other dietitians/nutritionists, but I honestly do not see why. I think that the information is helpful and Jessie comes off in such a laidback manner that it doesn't seem preachy.
22 #63 I am on a journey right now. I‘m doing a deep dive into health and wellness. And this book..wow!
Very fast read with 10 quick and easy hacks to lessen the impact of glucose spikes based on scientific research. First 2 sections of the book explain the science behind glucose and its impact on various bodily systems.
My nutritionist recommended this book to me even though I don‘t have an eating disorder. She says it‘s good at helping people learn to counter those voices in their heads that tell them they‘ll never be good enough. She‘s noticed my tendency to set impossible goals and then be hard on myself when I don‘t meet them. So it‘s cold and rainy outside, and I‘m curled up in bed reading this.
Loved it! Helped me solidify the difference between the ED and me
Hey #TeamHarkness, I hope you‘ve all been enjoying #Scarathlon2020 so far. I‘ve loved seeing your posts! Because the points system can be a bit complicated, let me know if you want me to check your posts and make sure you‘re counting things correctly before you give me your week‘s totals this weekend. Let me know if you have any questions at all. Keep reading - and don‘t get discouraged - remember it‘s all fun and games! Also - Dogs are amazing.
Read things you're sure will disagree with your current thinking. If you're a die-hard anti-animal person, read Meat. If you're a die-hard global warming advocate, read Glenn Beck. If you're a Rush Limbaugh fan, read James W. Loewen's Lies My Teachers Told Me. It'll do your mind good and get your heart rate up.
Heads up!!! If you get this book as an audiobook, it‘s narrated by Joel himself!! This is fantastic because it feels like your having a conversation with an old friend as he blows your mind with rightful outrage over the American food system. Then he leaves you wanting to hunt down every local farmer just to shake their hand. (& support by buying their local food as much as possible)
