In this episode,I unpack the fears many people have around blood sugar levels. I explain why those spikes and dips you see on your glucose monitor aren’t failures; they are simply signals from your body. I will walk you through what’s actually happening when your blood sugar rises after a meal, what a healthy A1C looks like depending on your goals, and how to make sense of continuous glucose monitor data. This episode is about helping you gain clarity and confidence with your numbers, while offering real-life, judgment-free guidance on how to manage your blood sugar more effectively."Just because your blood sugar goes up doesn’t mean you failed; it means your body is responding. That’s a win, not a warning." - Russ
Key Takeaways:
- Why blood sugar naturally fluctuates and how that’s a sign your body is working not failing.
- What A1C ranges really mean, depending on whether you're managing diabetes or aiming for remission.
- How to interpret CGM data in context, focusing on recovery time and stability over chasing perfect numbers.
- Emphasize looking at patterns instead of isolated spikes, taking into account sleep, stress, meals, and hormones.
- Practical resources and personalized support, including guides, courses, and one-on-one coaching to help you take control without fear.
