93: Diabetes Q&A #7: Rebuilding Insulin Sensitivity, Sugar-Free Drinks, Protein Powder, Berberine Safety, Blood Sugar Spikes, and More

Can you really rebuild your insulin sensitivity and one day enjoy the occasional treat again? Why does your blood sugar sometimes skyrocket out of the blue, even when you’ve done nothing differently? And what’s the real story with berberine, sugar-free drinks, and breakfast foods that claim to be healthy? 

In this Diabetes Q&A episode we answer these practical, often confusing questions straight from listeners just like you. You’ll hear about managing stubborn high A1c levels in diabetes even after years on insulin, how infections can secretly wreak havoc on your blood sugar, and why a typical “healthy” breakfast might actually be sabotaging your efforts. 

Plus, we clear up what research really says about berberine and liver health, whether diet sodas are truly safe, and how protein can change the game for your insulin response.
