Fixing Blood Sugar: More Than Just Lowering A1C

Fixing blood sugar and managing type 2 diabetes and weight loss is all about the big picture. There is a reason your body has lost the ability to manage the assimilation of its most usable source of energy—glucose.

🔥Inflammation & Circadian Rhythm

It often starts with inflammation and the mismanagement of circadian rhythm. Our generation is the most inflamed and dealing with sleep loss at a rapid rate. If your body can't rest, it will never be able to manage glucose properly.

⚡Chronic Stress & Blood Sugar Spikes

In a chronic stress environment, your body constantly reacts to micro threats in your surroundings. Every time you perceive a major threat, real or imagined, your body mobilizes glucose to respond—keeping blood sugar levels elevated.

🍽️Food Addiction & Manipulation

Food today is more addictive than ever, engineered to create dependency. This manipulation of food leads to cravings, insulin resistance, and poor blood sugar control.

🔴Sedentary Lifestyles & Muscle Activation

Modern life requires more sitting than ever, which reduces the need for muscles to fire and absorb glucose. Muscles absorb more glucose when challenged through movement, so lack of activity leads to poor blood sugar regulation.

Our Functional Approach

✅Start with Inflammation & Cholesterol – If your body is inflamed, it will never be able to absorb glucose properly. We look at inflammation markers, cholesterol, and good vs. bad fats to assess your body's ability to regulate blood sugar.

✅Assess Sleep & Light Exposure – If your circadian rhythm is off, your blood sugar will be too. Poor sleep and blue light exposure impair glucose metabolism, making regulation nearly impossible.

✅Evaluate Chronic Toxin Exposure & Gut Health – If your body is constantly managing toxins, it will stay in a state of inflammation. We examine toxin burden, absorption issues, and fiber intake to optimize metabolic function.

✅Improve Insulin Sensitivity & GLUT4 Receptor Function – Using targeted botanicals and nutrients, we enhance insulin sensitivity and GLUT4 receptor function to improve glucose uptake and storage.

✅Optimize Meal Timing & Glycemic Balance – Meal timing and glycemic index awareness are key. We provide coaching to balance glucose levels while ensuring proper nutrient timing for metabolic health.
