Aaron Snyder is the author of the book 'The New Diabetes Prescription: The Diet, Exercise, and Mindset Revolution' which helps diabetics manage to eat, alternatives to weight-gain inducing prescriptions, and exercise among others.

Prior to his success, Aaron experienced a traumatic childhood. He experienced physical abuse from his bipolar brother who's 8 years older than him that gave him a constant threat. He was diagnosed with a rare type of diabetes at a young age called Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Youth (MODY). .

On this episode, Aaron shares how turning to fitness literally saved his life from bullying and emotional eating. We also talked about these topics:

• Challenges of having rare diabetes called Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY)
• Aaron's grandfather who fought in World War II
• Growing up with a brother who has bipolar disorder
• Having dyslexia
• Surviving a freakish accident on his bike and the depression that followed
