Debbie Baumgarten, Author
Enjoying life in the Texas Hill Country, Debbie Baumgarten will be the first one to tell you, “I wasn’t born in Texas and it took me way too long to get here, but I consider myself a Texan, heart and soul. I love Texas.”
Debbie has traveled quite a lot of the world and experienced many diverse cuisines and cultures. She’s been to every corner of the U.S. and most states in between, and has traveled extensively abroad including England, Denmark, Sweden, Germany, Italy, every city of Switzerland, several Caribbean islands, Canada, Mexico and South America.
She’s has been very happily married for 22 years. “He is my best friend, my soul mate, my better half and the absolute love of my life. I must have done some good things in my life as I have been blessed with a wonderful husband who is almost too good to be true, a dog that is an absolute angel and many wonderful friends.”
However, Debbie was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia in 2000 at the Mayo Clinic. This was following many years of self abuse – smoking, excessive caffeine, poor and erratic sleep, combined with lots of stress. The pain and debilitating fatigue became overwhelming.
Debbie embarked on extensive research, study and visits to clinics to better understand her condition and to recover her health. After years of trials, she mapped her own way to a recovery of her health.
Debbie did not start writing as a profession or to make money. She wrote her books to make it easy for others to understand what is most important about health, to make it easier to live healthier and to help those who are suffering with chronic illness. Accomplishing this through her books for thousands of people is her dream.
Debbie founded FibromyalgiaFree, www.FibromyalgiaFree.org to provide helpful information to those suffering from Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue or Chronic Illness. Her book – FIBROMYALGIA, CHRONIC FATIGUE and CHRONIC ILLNESS, Navigating through the confusion and deception, isolating the truly effective, science-based treatments to get the real solutions to recover your health and take back your life! – is a summary of the best and most important information and treatments to be able to recover from these debilitating syndromes and diseases.
Debbie Baumgarten also founded HealthKick as a means of simplifying healthy living information and making it as easy as possible to eat and live using healthier habits. She wrote her second book, HealthKick, Easy Healthy Living Hacks to accomplish this. This will be available on Amazon Kindle next month. The HealthKick website and blog – www.HealthKick.info – is also packed full of information, with more added almost everyday.
She is currently working on her next book, Is Sugar Killing Me?, The Healthy Alternatives, which focuses more on the dangers of sugar consumption as a leading cause of obesity and obesity related diseases and disabilities. Here she investigates alternatives to sugar, exposing the dangers of artificial sweeteners and explaining the best options in natural sweeteners that can be used as alternatives to sugar. Based on he research into natural sweeteners, she founded Sin Free Desserts – www.sinfreedesserts.com – introducing a line of desserts that are: free of sugar, free of any artificial sweeteners, wheat and gluten free, additives and preservatives free, low in carbs, high in protein, high in fiber and contain good omega 3 oils. In other words, she has discovered ways to indulge that are actually good for you.
While her loves are her husband, her family and friends, her dogs, her home and the Texas Hill Country, her passion is helping others to live healthy, pain-free and happy lives.
