🍭Fewer sugar crashes in 3 easy steps (and the science behind why we get HANGRY): ⁠ ⁠ 1️⃣ Eat fiber rich foods with your indulgent foods. For instance, add a salad to your turkey, cranberries, and mashed potatoes. Before you indulge in some Halloween candy, make sure your lunch and dinner include things like beans, brown rice, avocado (healthy fats are your friend) and/or a lean protein.⁠ ⁠ 2️⃣ Exercise: we know, exercise is the annoying holy grail answer to every health issue, but you don't have to join a CrossFit gym to get benefits. Take a brisk walk around your neighborhood, dance around your house as you clean, or jump on a rebounder. When your body has excess blood sugar, it tells your cells to use it up by increasing your insulin. As strange as it sounds, exercise helps your cells remember how to use energy properly. That way the next time your cells have to use some extra energy, they can respond faster. And that helps the blood sugar roller coaster get a little less steep. ⁠ ⁠ 3️⃣ Take a supplement. We included Berberine, Zinc, Magnesium, and B Vitamins in The Daily because they all help support a healthy insulin response (something we all need whether we are diabetic or not) -- this helps your body respond faster to blood sugar changes, which means it doesn't overcompensate as badly and the roller coaster isn't as steep. ⁠ ⁠ Resources on blood sugar and supplements⁠ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7192270/⁠ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-021-25952-2⁠ ⁠ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3064411/⁠ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6484044/⁠ ⁠ https://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/43/10/2426⁠ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28780990/
