Could THIS be why you’re not seeing progress or plateauing??

Before I went to Nutritional Therapy school, I thought it was all about the food. And maybe some supplements but I never saw benefit from them.

Diet changes are really really important but they’re not the only change we need.

Also, taking random supplements for every symptom will probably be a waste (trust me, been there!). Only a targeted supplement protocol addressing root causes will really move the needle.

And copying someone can only get you so far because we are all different!!

This is why the Blood Sugar Mastery program is so different and so effective. In the program we target all of these root causes with a BioIndividual approach.

There’s no one size fits all macros or meal plans. I teach you where to start, how to listen to your body, and what to do next. We address ALL the areas on the right and my past students have experienced incredible transformations with this approach!!

Blood Sugar Mastery is...

Building muscle is one of the best things you can do for improved insulin sensitivity and to avoid building excess body fat

Is building muscle a part of your healthy lifestyle??

In the Blood Sugar Mastery program you’ll learn about what movement and exercise is the most effective for blood sugar regulation and those to avoid.

I am so excited soooooo many of you have already expressed interest in the course. It’s so inspiring to see so many people out there taking their health into their own hands!!

At a normal weight or under weight?? You can still be dealing with blood sugar issues.

I saw this quote the other day and it rings true in this case, “Just because you’re skinny, doesn’t mean you’re healthy.”

If you are going through my content and relating to the symptoms regardless of your weight, you likely are experiencing these issues and would benefit from working on controlling your blood sugar.

Why would you want to do that?? Because our blood sugar not only controls how we feel at every moment of the day, it also has huge impacts on our long term health.

High blood sugar levels or constant spikes and crashes is inflammatory, taxes your adrenals, imbalances your hormones, depletes you of nutrients, is stressful on your organs, and more.

This is why diabetes is a leading cause of macular degeneration, kidney disease, heart disease, and is associated with Alzheimer’s, cancer, autoimmunity, and a myriad of other chronic inflammatory diseases.

You shouldn’t have to eat every few hours to keep your blood sugar from crashing!

If you do, you are likely stuck in a sugar-burning mode where your body cannot efficiently burn fat for fuel.

When you can’t burn fat for fuel, you’re chained to sugar and carbs. Since sugar and carbs spike insulin, the insulin ends up storing the sugar leaving you once again with low blood sugar and a need for more sugar and carbs!

This is the blood sugar roller coaster. It is often due to insulin resistance, and a combination of low adrenal function and mineral deficiency.

Diet-wise, I constantly hear people talking about “eating more protein” if your blood sugar always crashes.

Yes, protein is important but what’s being left out of the conversation is FAT!!! You need fat to stabilize your blood sugar.

Too much protein, especially lean protein, converts to sugar so if your blood sugar is always crashing and you’re eating a chicken breast and vegetables,...

When you are not metabolically flexible and can’t easily burn body fat for fuel, your body will be dependent for energy from the carbohydrates you eat.

Think about carbohydrates like kindling in a fire. Carbs burn hot and fast. If there are no logs in the fire (dietary & body fat) you will be out of fuel very quickly.

Your brain which is very energy hungry, will be the first to indicate to you that there is an energy crisis.

All of the symptoms above and more can be signs that your body is unable to burn body fat for fuel and this is often accompanied by cravings and urgent hunger for foods high in carbohydrates and sugar.

Becoming metabolically flexible is one of the keys to health! You can start by lowering carbs AND INCREASING FAT!

Remember, the fat is like the log in the fire. It will burn low and slow and give you energy for hours! If you can’t make it more than a few hours between meals, up the fat and see if that helps!

Save & Share! These are the fats and fatty foods to add more of for better blood sugar & hormones!

Healthy fats provide long lasting energy like a log on a fire

They are the building blocks of every cell membrane.

They aid in the absorption of fat soluble vitamins ADE&K.

They allow for proper use of proteins.

They slow the absorption of carbohydrates and reduce blood sugar spikes.

They make us feel full so we can stop snacking (which messes up our blood sugar).

Fats help your body inflame and anti-inflame.

They increase muscle endurance

And let’s be real…. They taste amazing!!

What are your favorite healthy fats??

Stop blaming it on your willpower. If your body can’t efficiently burn fat or produce ketones, your need for sugar increases.

This damaged metabolism is what drives sugar and carb cravings.

Your body senses an energy crisis, and since it can’t get what it needs from fats or ketones, it will drive you to seek out your only other fuel source: sugar!

Improving your metabolism, becoming a fat burner, and getting into a state of nutritional ketosis can begin healing the metabolism so it is more flexible and efficient.

This decreases the demand for glucose and will finally help reduce cravings and sugar dependency.

So excited to be diving into the “how to” with this incredible group of students in my Blood Sugar Mastery course!!

Do you feel dependent on sugar?? Do you do fine for a few days but then inevitably “fall off”??

This week in BLOOD SUGAR MASTERY we are learning all about the benefits of whole, real foods, the dangers of ultra-processed foods, and how to discern the difference between acceptable vs non acceptable minimally processed foods.

Eating whole foods is the key to health and is the first step for optimizing your blood sugar & your health!

Minimally processed foods can make our life easier and can have a place in a modern, healthy, blood sugar-stabilizing diet!

It’s essential to learn how to read ingredients & sift through marketing claims to know what to look for and what is just a marketing ploy (“all natural,” “free range,” “no high fructose corn syrup”, “non-GMO”, etc)

And finally, ultra processed foods contain a shit load of ingredients which have been heavily processed. Foods have been stripped of their nutrients and the food is often so devoid of nutrition, they add back in synthetic vitamins and minerals. (These are...

Depressed?? Anxious?? Hormone Imbalances? Bloating? Burping? Brittle nails or bones? Thin hair? Read on

Without adequate stomach acid, we can’t break down proteins.

Stomach acid is what activates a protein-digesting enzyme pepsinogen into its active form, pepsin.

Remember, proteins don’t just build muscle. They break down to form skin, hair, nails, enzymes, hemoglobin, HORMONES & NEUROTRANSMITTERS!!

Lack of adequate protein intake and poor digestion of proteins can set us up for hormone imbalances, mood issues like anxiety/depression, excessive appetite, worsened digestion, bloating, indigestion, burping or gas after meals, nutrient deficiencies, gut flora imbalances, and so much more!

There are a variety of ways to increase stomach acid and you may need to do several of these things but here are some general tips:

1. Get in a rest and digest state
2. Chew 20-30 times per bite
3. Support digestion with Apple Cider Vinegar, digestive bitters, or HCl (please work with a...

The gaslighting from doctors needs to stop! Hypoglycemic symptoms can be felt at any blood sugar number.

What are symptoms of hypoglycemia?

•Dizziness / weakness / shakiness
•Brain fog / difficulty concentrating
•Intense or urgent hunger / cravings for carbs, sweets, starches
•Anxiety / irritability / moodiness
•Racing heart / heart palpitations
•Fatigue
•Tingling or dry lips
•Headaches
•Sweating
•Nausea / vomiting

These symptoms are indicating your body perceives you are low on fuel.

This is often due to an inability to efficiently burn body fat for fuel.
