220. Listener question: What is insulin resistance?

Life After Sugar ·

2025/03/30

If you're a layperson like me (that is, not a health professional or a nutrition expert), then you may not know what "insulin resistance" is. I certainly didn't. It was only when I stopped eating sugar in my mid-40s, and experienced the amazing benefits of being sugar-free, that I started reading up on what insulin does. And after that, I read about how insulin resistance affects your body and your health. In fact, insulin resistance is linked to a whole host of health issues, from obesity an...

Hi! It's me, Netta. And I have to tell you that all my life I was a real sweet tooth. People made desserts just for me, and my whole identity was wrapped up in my love for sweet foods, desserts, chocolate, ice cream, whatever. Chocolate was my best friend. And I also always had snacks on hand. Hidden in my drawer at work. Hidden away in my car. I used to always carry around snacks with me just in case I got hungry. So back in 2015, when I got some life-changing advice to cut down or eve...

And very soon, she started labeling foods as "good" and "bad", but she didn't know any different becau...
