Understanding the role of blood sugar imbalances in health and disease

Understanding the role of blood sugar imbalances in health and disease, a recorded 2 hour webinar by Ruth Hull.

According to the World Health Organisation, an estimated 1.5 million deaths were directly caused by diabetes in 2019 and diabetes is also a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, stroke and lower limb amputation (WHO, online). Underlying diabetes is poor blood glucose control – in other words, blood sugar imbalances.

Blood sugar imbalances are not only implicated in Diabetes Mellitus, but also in a variety of chronic health conditions ranging from common hormonal disorders such as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) to neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s Disease. In fact, blood sugar imbalances also play a role in insomnia, mood swings, chronic fatigue, poor immunity and, of course, weight management.

Ruth Hull gives us an in-depth look at blood sugar physiology and its role in common health conditions and discover how you can help your clients better manage their blood sugars through lifestyle changes and regular reflexology sessions.

Part 1 looks at:

• What is the role of blood sugars – in health and in disease?
• What organs control blood sugars and what other internal and external factors affect them?
• What are the signs and symptoms of a blood sugar imbalance?
• How are blood sugar imbalances diagnosed and treated?

Part 2 focuses on how you, as a reflexologist, can help your client manage their blood sugars. You will learn and have confidence to:

• Give lifestyle advice for blood sugar management
• Adapt your reflexology treatment for someone with blood sugar imbalances
• Adapt your reflexology treatment for someone with Diabetes Mellitus.
