Ep 60 - Exploring the Impact of Food and Fitness on Insulin Needs and Weight with Amy Wilson

Join us in this episode as we welcome Amy Wilson, a Board-Certified Geriatric Pharmacist, certified fitness professional, and nutrition coach using the FASTer Way to Fat Loss platform. Amy is a passionate advocate for utilizing nutrition and fitness to prevent and reverse diseases.

Drawing from her personal and professional experiences, Amy shares the transformative power of diet and exercise in changing lives, highlighting the importance of tailored nutritional programs. From reversing pre-diabetes to addressing high cholesterol, Amy emphasizes the significance of personalized approaches in enhancing health and fitness.

With her background in geriatric pharmacy, Amy seamlessly transitions into empowering individuals to take control of their bodies and minds. She sheds light on the lack of education among patients, particularly in diabetes management during menopause, and discusses common medications like Ozempic and Metformin.

Amy addresses overlooked factors impacting midlife women's health, such as insulin resistance due to declining estrogen levels, and offers insights into optimizing nutrition, strength training, stress management, hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and understanding insulin's role in weight management and muscle health.

Tune in to discover practical tips and strategies for holistic diabetes management and overall well-being.
