Insulin Resistance: The Root Cause of Fatigue, Weight Gain & Brain Fog | John Goldman
How many people are pre-diabetic right now and have absolutely no idea? The numbers are staggering, and left unchecked, this subtle condition can eventually cost people their mobility, organs, and even their lives.
I'm joined by John Goldman, founder of Rebel Health Alliance, who turned his health crisis at 45 into a mission to help others avoid the same predicament. He walks us through the diagnostics that revealed he was (in his words) a metabolic disaster, and the seven-part philosophy he used to reverse it.
We get into why walking after meals is one of the most underrated tools for blood sugar control, what a continuous glucose monitor can teach you about your body, and why John believes healthcare should involve a coordinated team instead of a single rushed doctor's visit.
We also explore GLP-1 medications, muscle loss, and why so many people are setting themselves up to fail when they misuse these powerful drugs.
"Don't be afraid of the fact that your blood sugar spikes, because it's going to spike whenever you eat anything. You can lower blood sugar by just getting up and moving around." ~ John Goldman
