"Mom on a Mission! Perseverance and Determination" with Pamela Heyward, inventor of Glucose SOS
Description
Pamela Heyward is a mother of 4 children and two….”type ones” (diabetics). She is also the inventor of Glucose SOS, an instant dissolve Glucose powder to rapidly raise blood sugar levels for people with diabetes. You tap it in your mouth, it is absorbed directly into the bloodstream to possibly avoid a day like this…”I remember medics coming in and my daughter being on the floor and looking up at them,” Pamela recalls.
Eventually, Pamela couldn’t take those stories anymore and decided it was time to find a better way to raise low blood sugar quickly without spiking.
Pamela is truly a mom on a mission! With Pamela's persistence and determination Glucose SOS is currently in all pharmacies in the US and in most US retailers. GlucoseSOS has some international distribution as well.
