Review
The idea of stress contributing to poor health is an old one, but often patients are simply told to "relax"--and it's even rarer that researchers take the time to carefully study how relaxation can improve physical conditions. Tackling both these issues, Dr Richard Surwit combines specific relaxation techniques with a solid research background in an effort to help control blood sugar levels.
The first few chapters are rather technical but are explained in an approachable manner. He identifies several chemicals such as cortisol and growth hormone that are related to blood sugar management and discusses how depression, hostility and anxiety can affect these chemicals. He refers to specific research, both with mice and with humans, and includes simple tests to help you analyse these problems and develop a combination of techniques to combat them. Later chapters explain these techniques in detail, particularly progressive relaxation therapy (similar to biofeedback, but without the machine) and cognitive behaviour therapy.
Each routine is broken down into simple daily steps, and pages can be used as workbook sheets--much of the daily effort involved is simply tracking your progress. While nowhere does Dr. Surwit suggest these as a total replacement for diet control and insulin treatments, the specific steps aren't difficult to add to your daily routine and may make just the difference you've been hoping for. --Jill Lightner, Amazon.com
