Insulin Resistance, CGM’s, & Blood Sugar Spikes: Breaking Down the Confusion
Somewhere along the way, the internet decided your blood sugar going up after you eat is a problem. It isn't! That's your body doing exactly what it's built to do.
Amanda, Joyce, and Morgan break down the confusion around insulin resistance, continuous glucose monitors, and blood sugar spikes. They get into what's actually normal versus what's genuinely dysfunctional, why two healthy people can eat the same meal and get completely different glucose responses, and why chasing a perfectly flat line is both pointless and sometimes a red flag in itself. They talk through the fear-based content that gets rewarded online, why fruit is not the enemy, why insulin is not the enemy, and what actually matters for metabolic health.
Plus why a flat glucose curve can be hiding a serious problem, why most people wearing a CGM for fun are getting nothing useful out of it, and the genuinely boring stuff that moves the needle: muscle, movement, sleep, and a walk after you eat.
