FlameEz-Glucose, 60 Capsules/Bottle
$54.95
Inflammation has been considered as a key mechanism leading to type 2 diabetes. Inflammation takes place in pancreatic islets at early stage of type 2 diabetes. Inflammatory mediators promote pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction and cause the neighboring liver, muscle or fat cells to become insulin resistant. Inflammation is also accounted for vascular damage leading to diabetic complications, including cardiovascular disease, kidney dysfunction, retinopathy, and peripheral neuropathy. These complications are responsible for the vast majority of diabetes-related mortality. Medical community has already recognized that modulation of immune and inflammatory responses may have tremendous benefit to type 2 diabetes. Current recommendations to prevent type 2 diabetes center on lifestyle modifications.Advanced science has led to the recommendation that modulation of immune and inflammatory responses may have the potential to be of tremendous benefit to type 2 diabetes. By balancing inflammatory response and clearing inflammatory toxins, FlameEz-Glucose is designed to restore pancreatic cell function and promotes body¡Çs normal reaction to insulin. If you are suffering from type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, or metabolic syndrome; or you are at risk for diabetes, i.e., prediabetes, overweight, physical inactivity, aged 55 or older, family history of diabetes, impaired glucose tolerance, balancing inflammatory response is critical.

Yoga: Just My Size With Megan Garcia
$9.95
While I very much enjoyed seeing a plus-sized woman teaching yoga, this video was absolutely useless for me. As another disappointed purchaser commented, the limited modifications are in a separate part of the video. If you're unable to jump into the video from the get-go, it can be very frustrating trying to learn the modifications then work them into the video. Further, as someone who has difficulty getting up and down from the floor, I would never have purchased this had I known that much of the workout expects just that. Some of the chosen floor poses are further complicated if you have a large stomach/abdomen. All in all, the video left me feeling frustrated and cringing at the word "yoga." If you were hoping for something designed for a wider range of abilities, plus size or not, I would recommend Yoga for the Rest of Us with Peggy Cappy. It really is Yoga for the Rest of Us, and presents various positions and their modifications as you follow along the video. You can even go from start to finish without hitting the ground, but you will know you worked out! Another workout that I've enjoyed recently is Element: Tai Chi for Beginners. "Tai Chi for beginners" moves fairly slowly and starts with a lovely Qi Gong workout that I now use every morning.

Among Giants; Courageous Stories of Those Who Are Obese and Those Who Care for Them
$29.94
I, too, am a physical therapist who recently started working with the patients of size that Dionne has so professionally presented. His insight into their mobility challenges and solutions are incredible. Reading his interpretations of the issues that these patients face made so many of my experiences finally "make sense". Most importantly, he did a great job of representing the patient of size as one who is to be respected and be the most important member of the interdisciplinary team that treats them.
