Episode 99: Why HbA1c Is More Than Just Blood Sugar

from Wholistic Living · host Marla Pietruszko

In this episode of Wholistic Living, we’re unpacking the truth about HbA1c, insulin resistance, and metabolic health, beyond just what you eat. You’ll learn exactly what HbA1c measures, how insulin works on a cellular level to move glucose into your cells for ATP energy, and what happens when that process breaks down. We’ll explore how stress, poor sleep, inflammation, toxins, and hormone imbalances all drive insulin resistance, even if your diet looks “clean.” I also share the most effective supplements for improving insulin sensitivity and supporting healthy HbA1c levels, including magnesium, inositol, berberine, fish oil, NAC, glycine, alpha-lipoic acid, and plant sterols and explain how each one helps your cells use glucose efficiently instead of storing it as fat. If you’ve ever struggled with blood sugar swings, fatigue after meals, high cholesterol, or stubborn weight gain, this episode connects the dots between glucose metabolism, hormones, and holistic healing.Join the 60 Day Gut Reset & Start When You're ready with $200 OFF! https://checkout.teachable.com/secure/1716725/checkout/order_4mzzdrn3?coupon_code=SECRETOFFEREquip Foods Grass-fed beef protein - Code: MARLAWant to work with me? email me to [email protected]
