93. What Most Women Get Wrong About Blood Sugar (and Why It’s Wrecking Their Hormones)

from Functional Medicine for Christian Women | natural medicine, blood sugar, bloating, gut health, blood test, insulin resistance · host Lacy Lain, BCFHP, LEHP | Functional Medicine for Christian Women

Hey Friend,   Let’s play a quick game of true or false: – Blood sugar is only something diabetics need to worry about.– Healthy foods like oatmeal and fruit can’t hurt your hormones.– Skipping breakfast helps your metabolism. If you said “true” to any of those… this week’s podcast episode is going to be a total eye-opener (in the best way). In this episode, I’m breaking down the biggest myths I see Christian women believing about blood sugar—and how those myths are quietly sabotaging their energy, sleep, metabolism, and hormone balance. You’ll learn: Why blood sugar is the foundation of hormone healing (even if you’re not diabetic) What’s really happening in your body when you crash at 10AM or crave chocolate at 3PM The simple formula I use to build blood sugar–balancing meals (no tracking required) How the way you eat reflects God’s design for rhythm, peace, and nourishment If you’ve been tired, foggy, frustrated, and feeling like nothing works… this episode is your next right step. You don’t have to overhaul your life. But you do need to understand this foundation.   In health,  Lacy Lain   Before you go… ✨ Join The Functional Hormone Reset Today!If your hormones feel out of control and you don’t know where to start, this is for you!
