Podcasts about blood sugar

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared shares another installment of his listener-favorite series, Max Health, Minimal Cost—where simple, affordable supplements deliver results that rival much pricier options. This week's focus is on three underrated yet powerful natural tools: Slippery Elm Bark, Citrus Bioflavonoids (including Rutin and Hesperidin), and Suma Root—each available for well under 50 cents a day. Jared explains how Slippery Elm soothes and protects the throat, stomach, and intestinal lining—supporting healthy digestion and relief from occasional throat and voice irritation without the side effects of common over-the-counter drugs. He then explores how Citrus Bioflavonoids strengthen blood vessels, reduce bruising, enhance Vitamin C absorption, and help stabilize histamine activity for those seeking natural support for circulation and immune balance. Finally, he introduces Suma, a powerful adaptogen used to promote balanced energy, hormone support, and stress resilience. Each of these time-tested botanicals demonstrates that true vitality doesn't have to come at a high price. Whether you're addressing digestive comfort, vascular health, or overall energy, Jared shows how small daily investments in these supplements can lead to big returns in well-being.Products:Solaray Slippery Elm CapsulesSource Naturals Slippery Elm LozengesTraditional Medicinals Throat Coat TeaYogi Throat Comfort TeaNature's Life Lemon BioflavinoidsSolaray RutinSolaray SumaVitality Nutrition Mind FuelUltimate Vitality MultiClinical Immunity Elderberry Gummies (Vitality Radio POW!

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared dives deep into one of the most overlooked yet essential nutrients: vitamin B1, also known as thiamine. While other B vitamins often take the spotlight, B1 is critical for energy production, nerve function, and overall resilience. Jared explains why not all forms of B1 are created equal, highlighting the difference between standard water-soluble versions and the more bioavailable fat-soluble forms such as benfotiamine and sulbutiamine. You'll learn how benfotiamine supports nerve health and circulation, while sulbutiamine penetrates the brain to deliver steady energy and focus without the jitters or crash of stimulants. Drawing from history, research, and his own formulating experience, Jared shares how these powerful forms of B1 help protect against sugar damage, reduce oxidative stress, and enhance everyday vitality. Whether you struggle with fatigue, nerve challenges, or simply want more consistent energy, understanding the right form of vitamin B1 could be a game-changer.Products:Ultimate Vitality MultiNerve ReverseActive B ComplexBenfotiamine Aloe Life Detox Plus + CellCore Binder (Vitality Radio POW!

God gave us a body to take care of and it is important to maintain that body with love and care. Especially because we are at the end of the genesis curse, there are many considerations these days to living a healthy life. It is also important from an eschatological perspective, because one day the world will ostracize those who do not obey its counterfeit system of worship — which means we must not be dependent on institutions or pharmaceutical drugs as much as possible. In this free series I go over 20 years of experience in the realm of health and wellness and discuss important strategies on how to maintain what we've been given so that you can be as healthy as possible for what's to come. * 00:00 - Introduction* 03:07 - Important Principles * 30:00 - How to Lose Fat* 37:43 - The Importance of Blood Sugar* 44:25 - Carnivore/Keto* 1:01:51 - How Much Protein?

In Episode 61, we learned that blood sugar dysregulation is a compounding factor at the root of nearly every metabolic disease or condition. While the science behind that statement can get complicated, balancing blood sugar doesn't have to be. In this “Quick Tips” episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Ashley Lawrence, NTP—your “Blood Sugar Bestie”— returns to share her top five blood sugar tips you can start using today. Ashley is the founder of Magic and Wellness and a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner passionate about helping women finally crack the code on their energy, mood, and hormones by addressing blood sugar first. Her approach blends science, strategy, and sparkle—making healthy habits not only doable but actually fun. In this episode: Protein-rich, savory breakfasts that stabilize energy, reduce cravings, and stop the 2:30 slump Why you should avoid eating naked carbs—and how to pair carbs with protein, fat, or fiber for steady glucose Simple movement after meals like squats and pushups during bathroom breaks or 15-minute power walks after meals How stress and poor sleep drive insulin resistance, plus practical hacks to calm cortisol and get better rest Why front-loading carbs earlier in the day improves sleep, energy, and overall metabolic health They also get real about practical swaps—like leftovers for breakfast, smarter chip and chocolate choices, and even adding butter or flax to balance out carbs. Remember, it's not about perfection; it's about small, consistent upgrades that add up to lasting freedom. If you've ever wondered how to fix fatigue, cravings, mood swings, or PCOS symptoms at their root, these simple steps are where to start for practical, real-life strategies to balance your blood sugar without the overwhelm.

Whether you're waking up shaky, crashing mid-afternoon, or struggling to fast without anxiety and dizziness, Danielle explains why your body might not be accessing stored fuel and how to gently restore metabolic flexibility.

Text us a comment or question!Ever wonder why some foods leave you energized and satisfied while others knock you into a mid-afternoon crash - or make fat loss feel impossible? The answer lies in your blood sugar. And today, we're breaking down how you can finally take control of it. In this episode, I sit down with Kara Collier, co-founder and VP of Health at Nutrisense, to uncover how continuous glucose monitoring (CGMs) and smart lifestyle strategies can help you outsmart stubborn fat, reclaim your energy, and build the lean, strong body you deserve in your 50s, 60s, and beyond. Kara is a Registered Dietitian and one of the leading voices in metabolic health. She's helped over 150,000 people use real-time data and practical tools to create sustainable change - and today, she's sharing those insights with you. What you'll learn in this episode:Why blood sugar spikes and crashes sabotage fat loss, energy, and cravingsThe surprising individuality of how foods affect your glucose (bananas might not be the villain after all!)Simple hacks to keep blood sugar balanced - without giving up your favorite foodsHow stress, sleep, and even the time of day can dramatically impact your glucose responseWhy building muscle is one of the most powerful tools for metabolic healthSupplements and “biohacks” that actually move the needle (and which ones are just pebbles, not boulders) Whether you're struggling with stubborn belly fat, daily energy crashes, or just want to feel younger and more vibrant, this conversation will show you how to finally master The Glucose Game.

If you're dealing with anxiety, low mood, chronic stress, or hormonal chaos—you're not broken. You may just be out of rhythm. In this powerful episode, Shana is joined by Dr. Kelli Ritter—licensed counselor, functional nutritional therapy practitioner, and quantum circadian specialist—to unpack how circadian disruption is a hidden root cause behind so many modern symptoms. From anxiety and insomnia to burnout and hormone imbalance, Dr. Kelli reveals how our light environment, trauma history, and daily rhythms impact the nervous system—and what it really takes to heal. This conversation is both science-backed and soul-nourishing, especially for the woman who's doing everything right but still feels stuck.

Blood sugar impacts everything—your energy, your sleep, your hormones, your brain, your heart, your thyroid, EVERYTHING. Yet most of us only hear about it in the context of diabetes.  In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host, Jamie Belz, and fellow NTP, Ashley Lawrence, open the curtain on the real story behind why blood sugar is often the hidden root behind symptoms like PCOS, anxiety, insomnia, weight struggles, and even long-term risks like cardiovascular disease and Alzheimer's. Ashley—known as the “Blood Sugar Bestie”—shares her personal journey of misdiagnosis, failed quick fixes, and finally discovering that blood sugar balance changes everything. Ashley shares: Her hopeful testimonial story and what she did to “lose her PCOS diagnosis.” Why PCOS is more than “just a hormone disorder”—and how insulin resistance drives much of the imbalance. Why some researchers call Alzheimer's “type 3 diabetes,” and what that really means. How early warning signs like skin tags and darkened patches can show up years before a diagnosis. The reality that blood sugar issues can simmer silently for a decade or more before being labeled diabetes. Practical, joy-filled strategies: pairing carbs with protein, food + mood journaling, hydration hacks, and short-term CGM (Continuous Glucose Monitor) experiments to see what works for your bio-individual body. CLEAN FATS make healthy hormones! (ALL natural fats are healthy - they need to be unadulterated and from clean sources.) This episode isn't about restriction. It's about freedom—learning how simple, everyday choices restore balance, resilience, and joy. Want to go deeper?

In this episode, Dr. Jockers uncovers the surprising truth about Stevia and how it impacts blood sugar and insulin. You'll hear the science behind why this natural sweetener may be better than artificial alternatives—and when it could backfire. This is where you'll start questioning what you thought you knew about “safe” sweeteners.   You'll also learn about the long-standing debate over Stevia and infertility, from tribal practices to animal studies that sparked controversy. Dr. Jockers breaks down why the evidence is far from conclusive, and what the FDA still refuses to say. There's more to this story than the headlines reveal.   And if you've ever felt “off” after using Stevia, you'll find out why. Hidden sensitivities, especially in those allergic to ragweed, can completely flip its effects. Understanding how your body personally responds could be the missing key to deciding if Stevia is really right for you.     In This Episode:  00:00 Introduction: Does Stevia Cause Infertility? 00:23 Podcast Welcome and Overview 02:51 Deep Dive: The Truth About Stevia 03:59 Stevia and Blood Sugar 05:08 Stevia's Health Benefits and Allergies 06:58 Controversy: Stevia and Infertility 13:26 Further Studies on Stevia and Infertility 16:09 Conclusion: Stevia's Impact on Health 18:47 Final Thoughts and Farewell   Struggling with stress, low energy, or poor sleep?

Insulin resistance triggers everything from Alzheimer's to erectile dysfunction. Dr. Benjamin Bikman examines the metabolic crisis shared by 50% of America.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1201What We Discuss with Dr. Benjamin Bikman:Half of US adults have insulin resistance without knowing it. It's the upstream driver of most chronic diseases — from high blood pressure to erectile dysfunction to Alzheimer's — not just diabetes.Medical focus on blood glucose misses the real problem. Insulin levels are rarely tested, yet elevated insulin drives disease years before blood sugar becomes abnormal.Fat cell size matters more than total fat. East Asians develop insulin resistance with less weight gain because they have fewer, larger fat cells versus more, smaller ones in Europeans.Insulin resistance causes brain starvation. When neurons can't access glucose due to insulin resistance, cognition declines — which is why some in the medical community refer to Alzheimer's as "type 3 diabetes."Type 2 diabetes is reversible through carb restriction.
