info_outlineIn this episode, we’re getting deep into the topic of insulin resistance and its influence on weight loss. Insulin is a hormone which delivers a message to our cells to take glucose out of the blood to use for energy. The insulin is the key that fits into the receptor, which is the lock.
We’ll explore the critical role insulin plays in our bodies and discuss dietary strategies, exercises, and supplements that can help with insulin resistance. We also touch on the connection between menopause symptoms and insulin resistance, along with how it impacts the body's ability to burn fat. Later, we’ll compare the effectiveness of ketogenic and carnivore diets in reversing insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes.
In this episode:
● How insulin resistance prevents effective weight loss.
● Why understanding insulin's function is critical for weight management.
● The best diet and exercises to reverse insulin resistance.
● Supplements that can speed up the reversal of insulin resistance.
● The connection between menopause symptoms and insulin resistance.
● How insulin release can obstruct lipase, posing a significant challenge to fat burning.
● Why insulin resistance can cause chronic fatigue, cravings, and persistent hunger.
● The value of a A1C test for monitoring blood glucose levels.
● The importance of a carb tolerance test in understanding your body's response to different carbohydrates.
● How the ketogenic and carnivore diets can reverse type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance.
● The potential benefits and nuances of the ketogenic and carnivore diets.
