Last week a friend said, "Ellie, you and your guests always talk about balancing blood sugar as vital to hormonal health, but how do I do that??"

So on this episode, I go into the details of the how and why behind blood sugar, so you can work on this in your own life! There are quite a few nuances and there is no one size fits all formula, but there are a lot of basics that are extremely helpful and can help you make major waves in how you feel day to day, including your mood and energy, as well as what's happening with your periods and fertility.

Here's what I discuss in the episode:

• Why blood sugar balance matters for women overall and in our day to day 
• The difference between balanced and imbalanced blood sugar and symptoms of both
• Carbs and how different ones effect your body and blood sugar differently 
• What to eat and prioritize to balance your blood sugar
• If you have PCOS how much sugar or sweet treats are OK to have
• Food sensitivities and inflammatory foods, and how they throw off blood sugar
• and more!

You may want to take notes or listen to this one a few times for lots of tips and wisdom, depending on which stage of this hormonal balance process you are in!
