9 to 5 Wellness

A lot of my clients are surprised when they are diagnosed with pre-diabetes. That's why I sat down with metabolic health expert and obesity mediicne speacialist Dr. Maribeth Orr to understand and debunk prediabetes.

Pre-diabetes diagnoses mean having higher blood sugar than normal, but not high enough yet for a diabetes diagnosis.  But don’t let the prefix “pre” fool you…..

Prediabetes puts you at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

Think of prediabetes as a fork in the road. If you ignore it, your risk for type 2 diabetes goes up. Lose a modest amount of weight and get regular physical activity, and your risk goes down. 

Modest weight loss means 5% to 7% of body weight, just 10 to 14 pounds for a 200-pound person. Regular physical activity means getting at least 150 minutes a week of brisk walking or similar activity. That's just 30 minutes a day, five days a week.

If you are stuck and don’t know where to start, work with a wellness coach who has the knowledge and knowhow. Checkout my services at - https://www.aeshatahir.com/

In this episode we dive deep into insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is a normal physiological process that has promoted survival from starvation for humans throughout evolution. But today, in this day and age, insulin resistance is activated by overnutrition in our toxic food environment. 

It is a very prevalent metabolic dysfunction. An estimated 87 million American adults have pre-diabetes and 30% to 50% will go on to develop Type 2 diabetes. Insulin resistance is the root cause and precursor to pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes. 

Simple lifestyle changes can improve insulin resistance and reduce the risk of a lot of the health conditions that go along with it. 

In this episode you’ll learn:

 What is insulin resistance?

 What causes insulin resistance?

 Who gets insulin resistance?

 What are the biomarkers to look for?

 How can we reduce or reverse insulin resistance?

“I eat only one meal,” said Amy. I met my friend Amy after about six months at a coffee shop last week. She had lost some weight, so I complimented her, and she told me how she’s lost weight by skipping meals. You can listen to the rest of this story on todays's podcast episode.

On the surface skipping meals sounds like a strategy for weight loss and caloric restriction but it can wreak havoc on your metabolic health. Food helps power every system in your body, so it’s important to provide your body with nourishment it needs .  Eating at regular intervals is important.

Sometimes it might be work commitments and you end up working through lunch, and skipping breakfast may seem like no big deal but it take a toll on our body.

In this episode you can learn:

What happens when you don’t eat?

How does it affect your physiology?

How skipping meals can affect your productivity and work?

Some tips to stay fully fueled throughout your day.

Many people are confused about what healthy eating means.

A lot of people associate “healthy eating” with losing weight, cutting out all carbs or gluten or dairy or another restriction, and ultimately depriving themselves of any food they enjoy.

🥘🍲🍹🍹🥂But the truth is, healthy eating is about enjoying the special moments in life so that you can celebrate with others. The goal of healthy eating is to give your body the variety of nutrients it needs to feel good, have energy, and maintain its proper functioning.

🌿🌿🌿In this episode we'll explore why restrictive eating is not good for us and you will learn tips I apply myself and give to my clients when it comes to eating healthy without feeling deprived.
