With excess weight comes poor blood glucose management….
Aka, higher risk of not just diabetes but nearly ALL illnesses.
A recent study showed people with poor blood glucose had much more severe symptoms of COVID.
So, what does this mean to you if you carry weight?
1. Eat regular protein – This will help to stabilise blood glucose and avoid crashes (and binges)
2. Eat at regular times – This will ensure your body is prepared for when food arrives. The body is very clever and ‘prepares’ for food.
But when you have irregular timings it acts as a stress on the body.
3. Avoid sugary foods and drinks – These imbalance blood glucose levels and lead you on a hunt for energy later in the day.
4. Start your day with some protein – Those that have some protein (whether eggs, smoked salmon etc) binge less at NIGHT.
This is because they are not constantly chasing energy to function.
5. Eat vegetables – The nutrients are important but the fibre helps to offset blood glucose disturbance.
Do the above and not only will you lose weight easier, you’ll be a at less risk of disease.
Simples.
