In This Episode:
- Find out how you unwittingly activate your “fat-storage” hormone and the major problems that arise when it gets rolling.
- Motivators for you to keep your body very sensitive to insulin, armed with knowing what causes cells to downregulate insulin receptors.
- Discover the ideal blood sugar and fasting insulin levels you aim to see in blood tests and what the range-indicator of insulin resistance tells you.
- THESE foods and food ingredients fuel us for optimal blood sugar support. (Add them to your shopping list today!)
- Accept that foods that are high in saturated fats are very good for you, despite the hubbub you hear elsewhere.
In today’s episode, Dr. Jockers talks about the two, often under-scrutinized hormones that are majorly responsible for fat and weight management – insulin and leptin. He explains why too much sensitivity is bad for one’s health and how to keep these hormones in check.
He also shares his go-to foods and food ingredients that support blood sugar levels and dial down disruptive sensitivities.
“We need leptin sensitivity if we want to have insulin sensitivity.”
– Dr. David Jockers
