In fact, both of these "blood sugar management strategies" actually lead to worsened blood sugar (as well as worsened metabolic hormones like insulin, leptin and cortisol). In this episode I talk about the steps you need to take to actually start HEALING instead of just managing or "hacking" your blood sugar!

I’ll also talk about my clients’ similar struggles and how they learned to identify this often-missed issue. We'll dive into how you can know if you have MH by looking at specific numbers, lab work, and early warning signs like fatigue, irritability, and shakiness. As MH progresses, symptoms can become more severe, affecting energy, mood, and even cognitive function. I’ll explain what it feels like as it worsens and what areas of health are impacted.
