How Glucose Effects Metabolism with Dr. Casey Means

Understanding glucose and glucose metabolism for better metabolic
health. We discuss what the ideal glucose response looks like,
and the difference between glycemic index, variability, and
glycemic load of foods. What influences the glucose response and
how to use strategies like nutrient timing and carbohydrates to
control your response. As well as acute and chronic low-grade
stress response, resistance training, sleep deprivation, and
insulin.
