Think food is the only thing impacting your blood sugar? There's a hidden factor you're probably overlooking.

In today's episode I sat down with Dr. Heather Stone to talk about how stress and what we eat directly affect our blood sugar and autoimmune health. Dr. Stone shares how using continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) helps track how food impacts the body, and why this is key for managing autoimmune conditions. She even talks about how her son used a CGM to see how his diet affected his energy as an athlete.

We also explore how stress raises your blood sugar and insulin levels. It’s not just about food—stress management plays a big role in keeping these conditions under control.

Key Takeaways:

• Muscle mass can improve your body’s ability to metabolize glucose, helping regulate blood sugar levels.

• Autoimmune diseases can go into remission with the right lifestyle adjustments.

• Prioritizing long-term health requires consistent attention, not just short-term fixes or treatments.

In this episode of the Low Carb Hustle, we dive into the powerful combination of fasting and amino acids to boost brain health, improve gut function, and accelerate fat loss. Discover how fasting triggers autophagy, a natural process of cellular cleanup, while supplementing with branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) like leucine, isoleucine, and valine helps preserve muscle and optimize energy levels. We also explore the role of glutamine in repairing the gut lining and enhancing insulin sensitivity, making this strategy a game-changer for anyone looking to improve health and performance.

Ready to implement this strategy? Start with a 16:8 fasting routine and add essential amino acids during your fast for maximum benefits.
