Best Books for Day-to-Day Blood Sugar Management
"You’ll notice a trend in the books I’ve recommended so far: They’re all written by people who actually lives with diabetes themselves. Dr. Ponder is no different — he’s managed type 1 for decades and he’s an endocrinologist, which makes this a great book for people managing this form of the disease themselves.
He’s combined his real-life experience with his hard-earned medical degree to produce a guide to managing your blood sugar and insulin doses with today’s technology. Having an insulin pump and a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) doesn’t make managing type 1 diabetes “easy” by any means, and Ponder knows that. In many ways, it becomes far more complicated because you have far more options and far more expectations.
This book is designed to help you make the most of today’s technology while tackling that constantly fluctuating and ever-sensitive wave of your blood sugar."
