Glucose: Your Continuous Marker of Health with Dr. Casey Means
Manage episode 361597394 series 3470289
Glucose is seen as something that only diabetics need to think about. WRONG!
Glucose is becoming more and more apparent as a true marker of health. Too much of it over a prolonged period of time can lead to insulin resistance, can impact your inflammation, and impact mood, brain fog, weight gain, and ultimately (potentially) things like Alzheimers (which is now being called "Type 3 Diabetes").
Today we are talking about the importance of glucose for healthy people with Dr. Casey Means. Dr. Casey is a a fantastic Stanford trained physician, ENT surgeon, nutritionist, and now cofounder of a new biowearable company that helps track you glucose levesls. Dr. Casey's multivaried background of deep knowledge and breadth of knowledge in health allows her to speak widely in all things related to health, which you will see in this interview.
This conversation of glucose touches on why it's important for women - and it's ties to:
- PCOS
- Brain Fog
- Metabolic Fitness
- Heavy Periods
- Alzheimers
- Stress
- Skin Aging
