Memorable Quotes

"When I monitored my blood sugar through the continuous glucose monitor, it was eye-opening. There were many things that were triggering my blood sugar to go up."

"Blood sugar does not work alone. The way that your insulin works, glucagon and all those hormones, even leptin, are responsible for blood sugar regulation and your appetite. They're also dictating inflammation, which impacts cortisol and ovarian hormones such as progesterone, testosterone, and estrogen."

"If you've been struggling with PCOS, endometriosis, any inflammatory conditions, brain fog, fatigue, pain of any kind, it will be absolutely eye-opening what you will learn through a continuous glucose monitor."
