This book is based on the author's personal experience with Type
II Diabetes and its effects on her body.
After strictly adhering to the recommended regimen of daily blood
draws, medication and extreme dietary adjustments over the course
of many years, Leonida Lidman still found herself in great physical
and emotional pain.
It was only with the discovery of baby's milk and the solution to
the sudden fluctuations of blood glucose that she was able to
regain much of the physical energy she enjoyed before diabetes
afflicted and tortured her body.
Intermingling personal observations of her ailments with medical
information copied verbatim from books and leaflets given to her at
medical appointments, the author gives a thorough overview of the
definitions, side effects and treatment options involved in dealing
with diabetes. The author hopes readers will come away with a firm
understanding of the disasters that diabetes can wreck on the human
body, why these side effects occur, and with solutions to
potentially live pain-free lives.
