S1 Ep 06 Prediabetes and how to fix it.
Can you reverse prediabetes or type 2 diabetes? Here’s what the science says.
Did you know that over 80% of people with prediabetes don’t even know they have it? That means millions are walking around with elevated blood sugar and early signs of type 2 diabetes, completely unaware their body is trying to warn them.
But here’s the truth: prediabetes doesn’t have to lead to diabetes. It’s not a life sentence — it’s a second chance. And in this Episode, we’re diving into what it really takes to turn things around. We’re unpacking the science behind insulin resistance, what early symptoms to look out for, and how to naturally lower your blood sugar through simple, sustainable lifestyle shifts.
If you or someone you care about is dealing with low energy, weight gain, blood sugar concerns, or has been told they’re at risk — this conversation could change everything. Recorded March 2025.
