Plain black coffee might do more than wake you up. Coffee has a plant compound called chlorogenic acid, and studies suggest it may help your body respond better to insulin. The key word is plain. Once you load it up with sugar, flavored syrups an...

Could the ringing in your ears be a blood sugar problem? Your inner ear burns a lot of fuel, so it is sensitive to swings in blood sugar and insulin. Researchers in Egypt followed 60 older adults with metabolic syndrome and constant ringing. Half...

Researchers in Japan gave 19 people with type 2 diabetes the same lunch on two different days. One day they sat through a dull 40-minute lecture. The next day they watched a 40-minute comedy show. After the lecture, their blood sugar climbed abou...

I talk about the protocol I use to live stream videos and what I use to video conference.

When you cut way back on carbs, your body doesn't run out of fuel. It starts burning stored fat, and your liver turns some of that fat into ketones. Ketones are a fuel your brain and muscles can run on when sugar isn't pouring in all day. That st...

Kale gets all the credit for fiber. But let's be honest, most of us don't dream about eating it. A cup of cooked broccoli has about 5 grams of fiber, and a cup of cooked Brussels sprouts has about 4. That's roughly double what you get from a cup ...

Clean water and modern sanitation added years to our lives. Our plates may be taking some of them back. Refined carbs and sugar keep insulin pushed up all day long. Over time your cells stop listening, and that insulin resistance sits underneath ...

This episode sketches the history of Guatemala and Central America, by following the changes to their national flag. No source list for this episode. Spanish-language Wikipedia provided the flag images and I did the rest!

Poor sleep does more than make you tired. Research shows it can lower your insulin sensitivity, and that raises your risk of type 2 diabetes. When your cells stop listening to insulin, your blood sugar has a harder time coming back down. A few sh...

This just came out in JAMA Network Open. Researchers at McMaster in Canada put almost 9,000 healthy, middle-aged adults in an MRI. Nobody had symptoms. But the people eating the most ultra-processed food were about 40 percent more likely to show t...

Psoriasis usually gets treated as just a skin problem. The research keeps finding it shows up right alongside insulin resistance, and people with psoriasis have higher rates of type 2 diabetes. That makes sense to me. What's going on inside often...

Most people quit their GLP-1 medications in the first year. A JAMA Network Open study followed about 125,000 adults on a GLP-1 shot. Within a year, more than half had stopped. For people without diabetes, it was almost two out of three. I'm not a...

Sixty-seven years ago, the American Medical Association put out a diet that was high in protein, high in fat and low in carbs. People have eaten close to that way for thousands of years. Then the advice flipped to low fat, and sugar and starch fi...

Do you crash hard after a big lunch? Heavy eyes, brain fog, ready for the couch before the afternoon even starts. A study published in Diabetes found a simple rule. A BMI over about 28.9 flagged insulin resistance in most of the people they teste...

Twenty-three years ago, Cleveland Clinic researchers pointed at a natural way to support heart health by managing cholesterol. That finding still shows up in how people talk about plant sterols and lipid numbers today. I care about this because h...

The SEARCH for Diabetes in Youth study projected that 48,000 kids would have type 2 diabetes by 2060 if trends held steady. We hit that number in 2021. Nearly 40 years early. If the 2002 to 2017 trend keeps going, the bigger projection is 220,000...

What if you could drop your blood pressure by about 10 points without losing a single pound, just by changing when you eat? A team at LSU led by Elizabeth Sutton had men with prediabetes eat all their food inside a 6-hour window that ended by mid...
