We are all guilty of the occasional joke about foregoing sleep to pull an all-nighter or the involuntary sacrifice of sleep because the day got away from us, or we just cannot unwind enough to relax into sleep. But does sleep deprivation really matter? Or is it something that can be fixed with a couple of cups of strong coffee? This blog post takes a look at this underrated issue. If you struggle with weight loss or insulin resistance, or you feel like you are always hungry, it is time to look at sleep quality.

Despite knowing better and needing to eat better, I was overweight for years. I exercised but resisted healthy eating because it seemed like I was in love with the wrong foods, and I didn’t feel like I fit into “that crowd” anyway.
As it turns out, my reluctance to change was all in my head based on myths I accepted as truths. This blog post shares three myths that prevented weight loss and healthy eating from getting a foothold in my life. My hope is that by the end of the article, you’ll see, as I did, that you got this.

A metabolic disorder is when something goes wrong with your metabolism, making it difficult for your cells to access the fuel you eat or the energy stored within your body.
When disorders of the metabolism get a foothold, they can progress to conditions such as insulin resistance, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and type 2 diabetes. But this progression can be short-circuited. This blog post gives you the parameters to understand your current metabolic health and practical ways to improve it.

Foods that are high in sugar spike your blood sugar. That is not something you want if you have insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, or trouble losing weight. So what happens when you remove the sugar?
There are sugar-free versions of many high-sugar snacks. But do these foods do what you hope they will do? In other words, can you keep eating candy and treats without the troublesome blood sugar spikes? That is what I set out to discover using my continuous glucose monitor to collect the facts.

Our world is filled with toxins. We eat them, breathe them, and even make them inside our bodies. But do we need a special detox program to right these wrongs? Detox diets and supplements promise big rewards for minimal effort.
These claims are big and attractive, but ping that little voice inside your head that says, “This sounds too good to be true.” The good news is that you are designed to detox because of your internal detox machine (aka your liver).
I am often asked what I eat in a day. In this blog post, I share what I ate yesterday and how you can use those same foods to reach your health and weight loss goals.
