Jim Kwik and Jesse outline a four-week plan to stabilize blood glucose. Week 1: swap sweet breakfasts for savory. Week 2: add a tablespoon of vinegar to water with meals. Week 3: eat vegetables first. Week 4: move for ten minutes after eating.
Let's talk about glucose. We had Jesse on the show to talk about her 4-week plan where each week you add a simple food principle into your lifestyle and watch your glucose levels become more steady. Week 1, swap your sweet breakfast for a savory one. When you eat sugar, it releases dopamine and you actually feel pleasure instead of energy, and you will board a roller coaster of unstable moods. Week 2, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to a large glass of water. Drinking this will reduce the glucose spike and allow you to still eat the food that you love without the cravings. Week 3, have 1 vegetable starter each day. Fiber creates a protective mesh on the inside to slow down the glucose absorption into your blood. Finally, week 4, after 1 meal a day, move for 10 minutes. Contracting the muscles will help to soak up some of the glucose that you just ate.
