And so when you exercise, instead of five keys needed to open the door,

Everyone tends to be more resistant to insulin in the morning hours.

And that's because of the other hormones that are circulating in the morning that are helping you to get up and get ready for the day.

So when people have diabetes, they're number one, more insulin resistant in the morning, naturally.

Okay, my big message for the holidays is don't worry about the holidays.

If you really wanted to focus on your health, I would say focus on the other 350 days of the year.

And, you know, don't torture yourself during the holidays.

Indulge in the holidays and maybe try not to indulge so much when it's not the holidays.

That should be the message.
