Glucose Revolution: The life-changing power of balancing your blood sugar

Product Information

I would argue that if you have a choice between something starchy and something sweet, I would go for the starchy thing, but better even, have some vegetables first than some protein and fat, and then have the starchy thing. And maybe you won’t even want to have the sugary thing at the end. Have you ever noticed that when you eat pancakes and maple syrup, you’re hungry again by 10am? The food you eat first thing affects your glucose levels for the rest of the day. In writing both clear and empathetic, biochemist Jessie Inchauspe explains why blood sugar spikes are so bad for us and how to flatten those spikes to transform our health.

Our misled food choices influence our physical and mental well-being—and stop us from waking up every morning feeling amazing.

Dinner for breakfast, dinner for breakfast, I feel better than I ever have. And I’m older than I ever have. I feel so good. I don’t have any cravings. I have energy throughout the day. I don’t even drink coffee anymore because I have so much energy just naturally. I mean I sleep amazingly. It’s very powerful. Very cool. I mean, this is really super powerful. Another one that people love is vinegar. I don’t know if you know about this, Mark. It’s like- Some things still were confusing to me. I understand how the 10 minutes walk is lowering the glucose spike (you are using the glucose as it is released from food so glucose never goes too high). But one of the tips was to drink vinegar with water before (or at least after) eating sugar - but no mechanism for lowering the glucose levels was given, they are just claiming it as fact. Also, when explaining that eating fibre at the beginning of the meal, it would make sense that it just stretches out how long the glucose levels are elevated (instead of spiking fast and the crashing again) - but all the graphs show them ending the same time as without fibre/vinegar accordingly.

The day of the surgery approached slowly but surely, though when it finally arrived, I wished it hadn’t. As the anesthesiologist began putting me under for the eight-hour procedure, I wondered if she would be the last person I ever saw. I prayed. I wanted to live. If I could wake up on the other side of this, I knew I would be filled with gratitude for the rest of my life.

It enters our bloodstream through the starchy or sweet foods we eat. In the past five years, scientists have discovered that glucose affects everyone - not just people with diabetes. It enters our bloodstream through the starchy or sweet foods we eat. In the past five years, scientists have discovered that glucose affects everyone—not just people with diabetes. If we have too much glucose in our system, we put on weight, feel tired and hungry all the time, have skin breakouts, develop wrinkles, and our hormonal balance suffers. Over time, too much glucose contributes to chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome, cancer, dementia, and heart disease. Food is not only delicious, it is vital to us. Yet sometimes, without our knowing, food can also cause unintended consequences. So now for the harder questions: Do you know how many grams of fat were added to your belly after eating that thing? Do you know if it will cause you to wake up with a pimple tomorrow? Do you know how much plaque it built up in your arteries or how many wrinkles it deepened on your face? Do you know if it’s the reason you’ll be hungry again in two hours, sleep poorly tonight, or feel sluggish tomorrow?

By the end of this book, you’ll be able to listen to the messages coming from your body – and understand what to do next. You’ll make empowered food decisions, no longer prey to marketing messages. Your health will improve, and so will your life. There were more than just mental health issues, too. "My skin was bad, I didn’t sleep well, I had energy crashes, irregular periods," she says. Inchauspé thought it was normal to wake up needing coffee (‘It’s not!’ she tells me). Being a goddess is harder than it looks. But it turns out being a Glucose Goddess is easy. Jessie Inchauspé takes the new science of nutrition and makes it practical for everyone. ROBERT H. LUSTIG, MD, UCSF Professor and New York Times bestselling author of Fat Chance I have type 1 diabetes. For decades no one could help me with it. Since discovering Glucose Goddess, my cravings disappeared, I was finally able to follow a healthier diet, and my glucose went from 530 mg/dL to 156 in the first days and my insulin dose divided by 10. Oh, and I lost 6 pounds! My doctor and nutritionist were so surprised and now they recommend Glucose Goddess to their patients.Absolutely. I think one of the conditions that is becoming more and more prevalent, especially in my community I’m noticing that the numbers are increasing so much, is polycystic ovarian syndrome. And this is a condition where women stop getting their period. Their ovaries become burdened with cysts. They start displaying masculine traits, like hair on the chin, balding, et cetera. And this is a something that often we’re told to just medicate, I’ll just take the pill and it’ll fix it. It turns out actually that polycystic ovarian syndrome is a disease of too much insulin. And the way it works is fascinating. So when your body has too much insulin in it, it’s not as good as it was before at converting male hormones into female hormones. So you end up with people who have uteruses who have this excess of testosterone in their body, so their female hormones are just not working anymore.
