The Real Reason Your Blood Sugar Is Out of Control (and It’s NOT Carbs)


Listen Later

Think your blood sugar issues are just about carbs? Think again.

In this episode, I sit down with Brenda Krohg—functional health practitioner and founder of Hopefully Holistic—who reversed her prediabetes diagnosis using a root-cause approach to blood sugar regulation. We break down how skipping meals, stress, and productivity culture secretly sabotage your metabolism (long before your labs scream the warning signs).

If you’re a woman over 35 feeling foggy, fatigued, frustrated with weight gain, or riding the energy rollercoaster… this episode is a must-listen.

We dive into:

✅ Why intermittent fasting and “just skipping meals” are not the same
✅ What subtle signs of blood sugar imbalance most women miss
✅ How Brenda’s high-performing lifestyle masked the early red flags
✅ What changes actually reversed her pre-diabetes
✅ The first things every woman over 35 should look at if they’re exhausted and gaining weight

This is a behind-the-scenes look at what’s really driving blood sugar dysfunction in women—and how to fix it without obsessing over carbs.
