BLOOD SUGAR LEVELS | You NEED to care about your sleep

You know those days, where no matter what you do, your blood sugar just skyrockets.

You're eating all the same "safe" foods.

You're exercising.

You're drinking water.

All of it.

… Yet for some reason, nothing is working and everything is just OFF.

Well, one of my first questions to you would be, how is your sleep?

It's easy to gloss over poor sleep as no big deal but it can have an enormous impact on insulin resistance, blood sugar regulation, and long-term health outcomes.

In this episode, I talk through the ins and outs of sleep and blood sugar, and most importantly, my biggest tips on how to get a good night's sleep so that you can reap the benefits!
