Symptoms of Dysregulated Blood Sugar and Why It Matters for Endometriosis


Listen Later

If you follow my work or have coached with me, you’ll know that blood sugar balance is an absolute staple to my approach for managing endo.

Whilst this isn’t an episode into how blood sugar affects endo, to give you a short explanation - blood sugar imbalances can have a significant negative impact on hormones, gut inflammation and the microbiome, and raise both oxidative stress levels and prostaglandin levels, both are key to endo growth and pain. I’ll link to some episodes and articles I’ve done on the topic, but maybe in the future I’ll do an updated episode covering these areas.
