Last year one of my health articles went semi-viral on Medium. It received thousands of views and was one of the excellent performing stories. However, a few months later, a content development officer of a health insurance company approached me after reading the article and seeing the number of claps on it.

She mentioned they planned to create a 100-page e-book to include less-known ways of making the body insulin sensitive with practical tips. She asked whether I would be interested in urgently writing a proposal for the initiative. I wrote a lot about insulin resistance and sensitivity.

When I asked about the audience, she said the target audience would be their clients with metabolic syndrome, type II diabetes, prediabetes, and others with cardiovascular and neurodegenerative health risks.
