“Stress is a huge factor when it comes to blood sugar regulation.” - Laurie Villarreal

Although most conversations about blood sugar are focused on diet, it’s important to recognize that stress plays a big role in how your body balances your blood sugar levels.

Whether we're talking about physical, mental, emotional, or physiological stressors, they all come together to create stress in our bodies that, if we don’t address it, can eventually wreak havoc on our bodily processes. This is why we can find people who are eating a balanced, whole-food-focused diet still struggling with their glucose levels and symptoms ranging from skin issues to fatigue, sleep disturbances, brain fog, and more.

Today, I’m excited to chat with Laurie Villarreal about blood sugar imbalances and how she uses biosensors to help her clients. Laurie helps high-achieving, mission-driven women regain control of their weight, health, and hormones in midlife so they can have more energy to pursue their bold goals and active lifestyles without restrictive diets, stacks of supplements, or overhauling their lives.

In this conversation, Laurie and I discuss her thyroid journey, the role of stress in blood sugar regulation, the benefits of using continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) to track blood sugar levels, how to use heart rate variability (HRV) as a tool for assessing stress, tips for managing blood sugar, and more. Enjoy the episode!
