The Diabetes Epidemic!

Mona Morstein, author of the book Master Your Diabetes: A Comprehensive, Integrative Approach for Both Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes, talks about the diabetes epidemic and why our nation is at risk.Here are a few questions we ask Dr. Morstein:

1. Take us through the diabetes epidemic, how big a problem is this?
2. What brought you to focus on diabetes treatment/prevention in your practice?
3. What role does intestinal health and the microbiome play in managing diabetes?
