- #45 - 5 Places That Quietly Sabotage Your Blood Sugar
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d
You don’t struggle with eating blood sugar friendly foods because you lack discipline.
You struggle because your environment is stacked against you.
In this episode, we break down five places that quietly sabotage your blood sugar, including one that surprises almost everyone.
From hospitals and airports to office break rooms and youth sports events, modern food environments are designed for convenience, not blood sugar health. The wrong choice is easy. The right choice feels inconvenient.
We’ll explain:
• Why stress makes these places harder to navigate
• How “healthy” snack aisles can mislead you
• Why free food often “costs” the most
• And what to do about it without being extremeIf you’ve ever found yourself somewhere and thought “There is NOTHING good for me here!” this episode is for you.
If one of these locations hits home, send this episode to someone who needs it.

Also, send us an email or DM for your own “Blood Sugar Friendly Packing List” that we talked about.

My doctor says intermittent fasting is dangerous for Type 2 diabetes. Is my doctor right?
Do artificial sweeteners break a fast?
Is intermittent fasting even good? I saw an article that says it’s no better than calorie counting.

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d
Diabetes is usually framed as a blood sugar problem.
But blood sugar is what we measure, not where the problem starts.
In this episode, we explain four reasons diabetes is a muscle problem, not just a blood sugar problem, and why muscle plays a central role in glucose control and insulin resistance.
We cover:
- Why muscle is the primary place glucose is stored
- How GLUT4 acts as the “door” that lets sugar into muscle…without insulin!
- How modern life reduces muscle’s ability to do its job
- Why muscle functions as metabolic insurance over time
This isn’t about lifting heavy weights or following extreme programs.
It’s about understanding how muscle supports blood sugar control and why building metabolic capacity matters.If managing blood sugar has felt frustrating or incomplete, this episode offers a clearer framework.
We also mention getting ahold of our steady strengthening workout to start building your muscle! To get it, just send us an email at [email protected]

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d
Most people already know what they should eat to improve their blood sugar.
That’s not the problem.
In this episode, we break down five reasons knowing what to eat doesn’t always translate into doing it, and why that’s not a character flaw.
We cover:
· How too many choices (the buffet effect) sabotage decisions
· Why environment beats willpower
· How stress hijacks the brain and drives quick-energy eating
· The trap of comfort eating disguised as self-care
· Why too many rules create paralysis instead of progress
This is not about trying harder.
It’s about fewer decisions, better defaults, and building a system that actually works.If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, I just don’t do it,” this episode is for you.

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d
Statins are commonly recommended for people with diabetes, but the reasons why can be confusing. Especially when your doctor only spends a few minutes with you.
In this episode, we break down how cholesterol relates to cardiometabolic risk, how statin decisions can be made, and where tools like coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring can help.
Our goal is simple: help you understand the conversation so you can have better, more informed discussions with your healthcare team.
And to do this, we bring in an expert on the subject.
Austin Dudzinksi is a board-certified clinical pharmacy specialist with interest in nutrition and metabolism and owner of the digital healthcare communications company, Digital Conversation.
In this episode, Austin gives you a masterclass on cholesterol, calcium scoring, and cardiometabolic disease. If you have diabetes and cholesterol questions, this episode is a can’t miss.

This Rapid-Fire Friday hits three questions you need to know the answer to on your road to remission!

Does dried fruit actually remove fiber (and why does it matter)?
How do I know if what I’m doing is actually working to get off meds or if I’m just managing symptoms and numbers?
Is it wrong to want fewer meds even if my doctor says I’m stable?

- #38 - The New Dietary Guidelines: What They Get Right and What Still Matters for Blood Sugar
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d
The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans are out, and for the first time in decades, they’re pointing in a direction that actually supports metabolic health.
In this episode, we break down what the guidelines finally get right for blood sugar and Type 2 diabetes, where they still fall short, and why guidelines alone don’t change health: implementation does.
We cover:
· Why “eat real food” is the biggest win in the new guidelines
· How ultra-processed foods quietly drive insulin resistance
· The underrated role of protein in blood sugar stability
· The highest-ROI move for improving blood sugar (hint: stop drinking sugar)
· And more!
If you’re confused by the headlines, tired of nutrition dogma, or trying to improve blood sugar in the real world, this episode cuts through the noise with clarity and practicality.

About Diabetes Remission Roadmap | Reverse Type 2, Lower A1C, Medication-Free Living, Weight Loss
From the publisher's feed
Are you living with type 2 diabetes…
But feel like no one is really listening to you?
Have you been told your A1C is “in range,” yet you still feel frustrated, weaker than you…
should, and stuck on medications you never planned to take for life?
Do you feel managed instead of helped — rushed through appointments, handed another prescription, and sent on your way?
If so, you’re in the right place.
The Diabetes Remission Roadmap Podcast is for capable, motivated adults with type 2 diabetes who refuse to accept “lifelong management” as their future.
Hosted by two pharmacists who’ve worked inside the healthcare system, this podcast exists to do what most appointments never had time for:
- Treat you like a human, not a diagnosis
- Explain why your blood sugar is high — not just how to medicate it
- Show you how strength, food, and daily habits can change the root problem
Each week, we break down:
- How to lower blood sugar without piling on more meds
- Why “A1C in range” isn’t the same as true health
- How to rebuild strength, confidence, and control
- What your doctor should have explained on day one
No hype. No fad diets. No shame.
Just clear, practical guidance from pharmacists who believe you deserve more than lifelong prescriptions — and who know remission is possible with the right plan.
If you want to feel strong again, make decisions with confidence, and work toward a future with fewer (or no) medications…
This podcast is for you.
Now, grab some earbuds, and let's walk this road to remission together.
