#354 - The Truth About Sugar, Carbs, and...

KITTY BLOMFIELD
About this episode

If you’ve been cutting carbs to lose weight or manage insulin resistance, you’re not alone. 

But here’s the truth: carbs aren’t the enemy. 

Stress, poor metabolism, and imbalanced hormones are the real culprits.

In this week’s podcast, I sat down with @isaacpohlman a type 1 diabetic nutritionist who’s helping people all over the world eat carbs and transform their health.

We’re breaking down:

👉 Why cutting carbs is masking the real problem.

👉 How stress impacts your ability to tolerate carbs.

👉 The exact steps to rebuild your metabolism and enjoy carbs again.

Isaac even shares how he lowered his A1C from 9.7 to 5.6 in just 3 months while eating carbs.
