Food should be a tool for helping us feel our best. But, most people don\\u2019t realize what kind of impact their favorite foods are having on their blood sugar, and subsequently their entire body. Feeling hungry even when you just ate, craving sweets, and dealing with acne, hormonal imbalances, and signs of aging like wrinkles are just a few of the many symptoms of blood sugar swings. When these continue to go unchecked more severe dysfunctions can occur. On today\\u2019s episode, I talk to Jessie Inchausp\\xe9, also known as the \\u201cGlucose Goddess,\\u201d all about her tried-and-true hacks for balancing blood sugar and increasing insulin sensitivity.

Jessie holds a bachelor\\u2019s degree in mathematics from King\'s College London and a master\\u2019s degree in biochemistry from Georgetown University. Her work at a genetic analysis start-up in Silicon Valley made her realize that, as the key to good health, food habits beat genetics. In her first book, Glucose Revolution, Jessie shares her startling discovery about the essential role of blood sugar in every aspect of our lives, from cravings to fertility, and the surprising hacks to optimize it while still eating the foods we love.
