Kickass Healthy LADA: How to Thrive with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults by Jacqueline Haskins

WINNER
Health: General
2023 Best Book Awards

The first book for the general public on LADA (Latent Auto-immune Diabetes in Adults) aka Diabetes 1.5, Kickass Healthy Lada offers the most up to date information, with practical strategies and tips for healthy living.

If you are one of the millions of Americans with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA), you may not even know it. You may be one of the ten percent of people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes who actually have LADA. Even if you do know that you have LADA, sometimes called “diabetes 1.5,” you’re likely to be inundated with unhelpful advice and potentially harmful treatments, leaving you feeling confused and overwhelmed. That was Jacqueline Haskins’ experience. After visiting five doctors before getting helpful guidance, and realizing there wasn’t a friendly “how-to” book meant for the general public about LADA—she decided to write one.

Thoroughly researched, empathetic, and practical, Kickass Healthy LADA shares Haskins’s hard-earned expertise. Medically reviewed and vetted, this go-to guide provides critical information and insights, including:

  • A detailed breakdown of the different diabetes diagnoses
  • What makes LADA different and how to find the best treatment team
  • Insulin: what it is, what it does, and how to know if we need more of this natural hormone
  • Tools for good health with LADA, including food and nutrition advice
  • Introducing Carb-Craft: how to safely enjoy the foods you love

With a biologist’s keen eye, a patient-advocate’s tenacity, and the humor of a trusted friend, Haskins offers an essential toolkit for anyone diagnosed with LADA.




I Trust My Inner Voice by Ana Parra Vivas

WINNER
Health: Women's Health
2023 Best Book Awards

Ana Parra Vivas is a perfect example of how working to change your self-perception can have incredible and tangible benefits in your life. Growing up in Colombia, Ana faced many difficulties, and these difficulties challenged her beliefs in herself. However, at the age of 18, she came across a book that would change the way she viewed her own life.

Years later, working in corporate America, Ana again found herself in a situation that required change. Her career was taking away time from her family, and she began to feel unfulfilled as a woman. She decided to study herself and, ultimately, she discovered the tools that brought her balance as she recovered her personal power.

I Trust, My Inner Voice is not only the story of how Ana found balance in her life but also a self-help book for women struggling to take the next steps toward the life of independence and freedom they desire.

This book explains step by step how to implement Healthy Mental Habits. Ana shows that if we establish healthier habits, it enables our beliefs to evolve. Growing faith in ourselves helps us manifest our goals. Anyone who is feeling empty and dissatisfied with their life will benefit from studying this self-development book.

The Inner Voice is a powerful tool, and this book can help readers harness that power.

Do you trust your Inner Voice?




Changing Children's Lives with Hypnosis: A Journey to the Center by Dr. Ran Anbar

WINNER
Health: General
Nonfiction: General
2023 International Book Awards

Offers examples of using hypnosis with children to address physical and mental challenges.

Changing Children’s Lives with Hypnosis is a timely collection of patients’ healing experiences, the story of how these events changed one physician’s approach to medicine, and the takeaway information parents and practitioners should consider as they deal with medical and psychological challenges in their children’s and patients’ lives.

Every year millions of pediatric patients could benefit from hypnosis therapy to deal with and alleviate physical and psychological symptoms big and small. The benefits of hypnosis-facilitated therapy range from complete cures to small improvements. They extend beyond the physical and into the psychological and spiritual, building confidence, positivity and resilience. They include the empowerment of children with chronic health issues to feel more in control of their own minds, bodies and circumstances. They sometimes lead to the reduction or even elimination of medications. Hypnosis is painless, non-invasive, and cost-effective. It doesn’t preclude any other treatment, and drawbacks are virtually nonexistent.

In a world where the doctor’s primary role has become more and more one of a technician—pinpoint a problem, prescribe a solution, and move to the next patient—hypnosis brings connection and art back into the process. It relies on a relationship between practitioner and patient, encourages creativity and expression, and allows patients to take ownership of their experience with the support and encouragement of their doctors. Children deserve the opportunity to receive gentle, thoughtful, empowering, and effective treatment in whatever form it’s available. Hypnosis therapy offers all of those things, and it’s time for patients, parents, and medical practitioners to embrace it—even to demand it.

Through meaningful stories and expert explanation, this book takes readers through the process of hypnosis for children and its myriad benefits for overall wellness.
