Ep. 316: Adam Sud - Carbs are Not the Enemy…Unraveling Insulin Resistance

If you’ve ever been told that 'carbs are the enemy,' or if you think type 2 diabetes is a life sentence, Adam Sud is about to blow the lid off those myths.

He’s a certified insulin resistance and food addiction coach, and returns for his fourth appearance on the podcast to clear up the misconceptions and set the record straight about what really causes diabetes.

He shares the real root causes of insulin resistance, the role of fat vs. carbs, how movement and muscle can be your secret weapons, and the simple, sustainable changes you can start making today.

You'll learn how:

• Insulin resistance is reversible with the right diet
• Saturated fat and excess calories—not carbs—fuel the problem
• High-fiber, plant-based foods boost insulin sensitivity
• Walking after meals and building muscle improve metabolism
• The PILAF method to help track key health markers

This episode just might change everything you've heard about insulin resistance and put your back in the driver's seat of your health.
