Angela presents a biohack alongside Dr Jacey Folkers, in which they discuss the importance of strategically dosing carbohydrates before a workout for optimal performance. They delve into the impact of insulin resistance on blood glucose control, and hormone balance, particularly in women, and how certain peptides and supplements can help improve insulin sensitivity and hormonal health.

The conversation also touches on the benefits of peptides like semaglutide and terzipatide for weight loss and appetite suppression, as well as the use of supplements like berberine, alpha lipoic acid, and chromium to optimize blood sugar levels

"Insulin itself is considered a peptide and kind of a hormone. It's one of my favorite peptides. I have a daughter that's a type 1 diabetic, and she wouldn't be alive if it wasn't for insulin."

"Berberine has a lot of positive things it can do. Obviously, one of them is to help improve blood sugar levels, insulin resistance. It also has been shown to improve the lipids, the cholesterol."

"I've definitely noticed that with PCOS, the common thing is, you know, for me, because I've got that more kind of pro-androgenic, if I have too much sugar, it leads to breakouts. That's the first thing that I'm going to see."
