We break down why insulin resistance can build for decades while glucose still looks “normal” and why symptoms often show up long before a diagnosis. We also explain how to use real data from glucose trends, key labs, and cycle awareness to improve metabolic flexibility, fat burning, and hormone balance without obsessing over calories. • the phases of insulin resistance and why hyperinsulinemia hides on standard labs • common early symptoms including hunger, brain fog, insomnia, migraines, hypertension, PCOS patterns, fatty liver signs and inflammation • lab markers to request including fasting insulin, triglycerides, glucose, ALT and uric acid • why overnight blood sugar stability matters for liver function and healing • ideal blood sugar targets including nighttime ranges and spike guidelines • why stable glucose can still mean high insulin from foods like dairy, sweeteners and excess protein • the connection between insulin, meal timing, fasting length and weight loss plateaus • fasting versus caloric deficit including appetite hormones, fat burn, growth hormone and muscle preservation • why the luteal phase can worsen cravings, anxiety and sleep and how to adjust food and training To get notified as soon as groups open up and other updates sign up/subscribe here:https://stacy-baker.mykajabi.com/opt-in-9cffc5f4-f006-4adb-a0a7-6c33a0698b4bResources mentioned:Ketone and Blood Sugar Testing MasterclassKetone TestingRa Optics (Code DRSTACYND) blue light blockersHigher Dose (my FAV sauna blanket with low to no EMF) code DRSTACYCGM *2 months free with code DRSTACYStructured/Living Water *code DRSTACYSpring Aqua (my FAV water system) To work one-on-one with me, you can apply HERE!For more from me, follow me on IG @dr.stacy.ndEpisodes Mentioned: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/vibing-well-with-dr-stacy-a-foundational-approach/id1611155385?i=1000751328500This information is just that; information only - not to be taken as medical advice.
