Summary
Take a journey into your condition and explore modern options for managing both type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure.
Did you know that diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in the US?
Or that the CDC estimates that about 88 million Americans have prediabetes, a condition that can lead to type 2 diabetes?
Living with diabetes can feel like walking a tightrope. One misstep and you can come crashing down, facing a range of life-threatening complications. From the constant monitoring of blood sugar levels to the pressure of making healthy food choices and losing weight, diabetes can feel overwhelming.
With the right guidance and support, diabetes management can be a well-choreographed dance. By making healthy choices and staying on top of your care, living with diabetes doesn’t have to get in the way of your life.
With this essential guide by your side, you’ll be able to:
- Remove the stress and anxiety you feel from constantly monitoring blood sugar levels
- Access simple ways in which you can begin exercising regularly, and understand why this is crucial
- Find that special balance between the demands of work, your lifestyle, and your health
- Discover effective coping strategies to help you deal with the emotional toll of living with a chronic illness
- Explore and understand modern advice and guidance for living with type 2 diabetes
- Challenge and respond to people who don’t understand living with diabetes
- Find realistic ways to manage the costs of diabetes medications and healthcare, so you don’t have to worry about your wallet on top of everything else
- Engage and interact with healthcare professionals to get personalized guidance that is relevant to you
- Understand the impact of diabetes on your mental health and well-being, and know exactly what you can do to protect both
- Deal with the physical and emotional pain of managing diabetes-related complications
- Find the best ways to maintain healthy habits in the face of social pressure and temptation
Plus, you’ll get Understanding High Blood Pressure to guide you in managing your blood pressure! In this book, you’ll discover:
- The different types of medications that can manage your hypertension...and how they might interact with foods, supplements, or other drugs you’re taking
- The heart of the matter when it comes to the causes of hypertension is to find out what specific factors might be putting you at risk so you can avoid them
- The underlying medical conditions that can cause your blood pressure to spike (so you can find the right approach to manage your health better)
- Ten questions you need to ask your healthcare provider (when it comes to blood pressure medications, it’s better to be safe than sorry)
If you’re living with diabetes and high blood pressure, you already know something about it, but this book offers you a comprehensive guide that covers the essential guidance and strategies you may not have considered.
Based on the latest medical guidance, yet accessible and easy to understand (and with practical advice you can implement immediately), this guide is organized into digestible sections that can be listened to in small increments, making it easy to fit into your busy life.

informative
A very informative guide for both ailments. I have elderly parents and wanted to understand more about what they were experiencing as well as tips to help them, which I did not feel I could do with my current knowledge level. I feel much more prepared after this audiobook, will be doing another listen next month as a refresher.

it's an opportunity to improve our well-being
I love this audiobook, it sets such a positive outlook on a bad situation. We have to find what works for us when managing type 2 diabetes. This audiobook helped me to make informed decisions about managing my blood-sugar levels. Millions of people are dealing with type 2 diabetes as well... this was a great reminder. When we change how we view things, we can empower ourselves to improve the situation. The audiobook also includes relatable stories and what lessons we can learn from them. Highly recommend listening to it!

Actionable Advice
I recently finished Understanding Type 2 Diabetes and High Blood Pressure (2 Books in 1) - Simple Steps to Avoid Complications, Reduce Medical Expenses, Decrease Stress, and Live a Healthy & Proactive Life and I am so glad I did. This audiobook is an invaluable resource for anyone dealing with these health issues. Dr. Ashley Sullivan skillfully breaks down the complexities of both conditions, offering actionable advice for everyday management. I appreciated that is goes beyond mere medical advice, addressing also the emotional and social aspects of living with these conditions. The tips for reducing medical expenses are particularly helpful. The narrator's engaging and warm delivery makes the audiobook a pleasant and educational listen. I've gained a wealth of knowledge and confidence in managing my health conditions, all thanks to this enlightening guide. I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for practical guidance to understand chronic conditions fully while implementing lifestyle changes and self-care strategies to avoid complications and live healthier, more empowered lives.
