Overcoming Insulin Resistance and Type 2 Diabetes with Dr. Beverly Yates

“I think of the whole hormonal system as a spiderweb. If you pluck one little strand on the web, you'll see the whole thing kind of quiver.” - Dr. Beverly Yates

When the thyroid is not functioning optimally and left untreated, you start to see a cascading effect on other systems. Whether it’s thyroid autoimmunity, hypothyroidism, or hyperthyroidism, we’ll often see accompanying issues with cortisol and the adrenal system and knock-on effects on insulin and blood sugar levels. The good news is that working on one or two usually yields the result and lowers the threshold risk for the others.

Today, I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Beverly Yates ND, a licensed Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine. Dr. Beverly is the nation's leader in online type 2 diabetes care, and her virtual practice has programs and supplements to help people lower their blood sugar naturally, at home, without ever having to step foot in a clinic. Dr. Yates is on a mission to help 3 Million people heal from type 2 diabetes and prediabetes.

In this conversation, Dr. Beverly and I discuss her background and her mission to help people with diabetes, the consequences of unmanaged type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance, practical tips for maintaining a healthy lifestyle, the need for self-care and prioritizing one's health, the interconnectedness of the thyroid and adrenal systems, and more. Enjoy the episode!
