In this episode, Nurse Doza dives deep into the role of insulin and how managing it can improve various health aspects, from energy to mental clarity. Discover five practical ways to support healthy insulin levels naturally, including fasting, cold exposure, and smart dietary choices. Class is in session for anyone ready to take control of their insulin and optimize long-term health!
5 KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Fasting Benefits Insulin: Intermittent fasting or calorie restriction can help improve insulin sensitivity, regulate blood sugar, and may extend lifespan.
- Cold Exposure Reduces Insulin Resistance: Cold therapy, like cold showers or outdoor exposure, can boost brown fat activity and enhance insulin regulation.
- Eat More Healthy Fats: Unsaturated fats, especially PUFA and MUFAs, can improve insulin secretion and metabolic health without spiking blood sugar.
- Targeted Supplements for Insulin Support: Resveratrol and Berberine help manage insulin and blood sugar, supporting better metabolic function.
- Avoid Late-Night Eating: Eating close to bedtime disrupts insulin function and melatonin, negatively impacting sleep and metabolic health.
