About the Author

Roberta Ruggiero is the founder and president of the Hypoglycemia Support Foundation, Inc. Having overcome ten years of illness, during which she saw dozens of doctors, endured countless medical tests, took thousands of pills, and even underwent electric shock therapy, she understands the plight of the hypoglycemic firsthand. In her book, she shares with you her own personal experience and the knowledge she's gained about this baffling disorder. In 1980, Ms. Ruggiero established the Hypoglycemia Support Foundation, Inc., to inform, support, and encourage hypoglycemics and the public about this too often misunderstood and misdiagnosed disease. This organization has enabled her to show how poor nutritional habits and severe nutritional deficiencies affect one's emotional and physical health. A frequent guest on radio and television and a well-known speaker, Roberta has also brought her message to the international, corporate, medical, and educational communities. Her biggest challenge, she feels, is evaluating and publishing her findings on the five thousand plus responses to her Hypoglycemia/Diabetes Survey.
