Bitesize Biohack: Manage Blood Glucose And Have Your Cake and Eat it

If you’re considering an indulgent festive period, but still wish to manage your blood glucose levels effectively, then Angela is here with a biohack, courtesy of Wade Lightheart, in which he talks about how to optimise glucose control and insulin sensitivity.

Key Takeaways

  • There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that blood sugar dis-regulation is extremely rampant in society. There is much collateral damage leading to cholesterol.
  • We have evolved to eat natural whole foods, but the rapid industrialisation in food have led to quick-digesting foods that have a high sugar content that upsets blood sugar.
  • You should aim to limit the amount of insulin being released and keep within a narrow range, so that you become a fat metaboliser.
  • People can have genetic predispositions due to their inherent body type. This causes different foods to react in different ways depending on who eats it. This means a one-size-fits-all approach can’t comprehensively work for everyone.

Best Moments

‘We all want to have fun while remaining fit and healthy’

‘Blood sugar dis-regulation is contributing to the top three diseases’

‘The consequences for people are huge’

‘There’s no set amount of responses to individuals’
