Next, Dr. Sconiers did a more intimate breakout session. In addition to lecturing on Diabetes, he spoke on and answered dozens of questions on nutrients and herbs known to aid the pancreas, kidney, liver, brain, bones, heart + how to promote good blood sugar balance. He stressed the need for many Americans to personally understand the lifestyle solutions for addressing Diabetes. Dr. Sconiers discussed in detail the benefits of specific low glycemic foods that best support sound pancreatic function, i.e., whole grains, beans, legumes and fibers.
