EP252: Your Blood Sugars: Chromosomes or Choice
In this episode, we explore the misconception that genes are the driving force for disease in the human body. When initial attempts to control A1c’s fail, women wonder, “maybe my genes are stacked against me.” And the “healthcare” system encourages this. Providers start to push medications. In fact, many providers think using meds is the only way to get healthy. News flash: diabetes is not caused by a lack of medication. True health is the absence of disease, and requires eliminating the cause of your disease. In the case of your blood sugars, this means eliminating the foods causing your insulin resistance. Medications manage but do not cure the disease. Healing involves a consistent diet, free from processed foods. Check out this episode to learn more!

EP250: Diabetes and Dyslipidemia
This episode delves into the intricate relationship between diabetes and dyslipidemia, exploring how insulin resistance affects liver function, leading to an imbalance in cholesterol levels. Abnormal cholesterol levels often accompany abnormal A1c levels. Historically, statin therapy has been a cornerstone in dyslipidemia treatment, recent research challenges its effectiveness, tying statin use to worsening insulin resistance and hormonal balance. I point out the importance of dietary interventions, emphasizing the detrimental effects of processed foods on health. In the end, I encourage you to embark on a 90-day journey of eliminating processed foods to reclaim your health. Check it out! Tell me how it goes!
