4. Exercise Helps Stabilize Blood Sugar. Physical activity helps improve insulin sensitivity... Meaning your body becomes more efficient at using glucose. Even light movement, like a 10-minute walk, will help reduce those post-meal blood sugar spikes.

This is Jessie Inchauspé. She's a biochemist who's dedicated her life to researching sugar. Her message? Everything you've been taught about sugar is WRONG. You don't have to cut it out... Here are the "Glucose Goddess'" 7 Hacks for mastering your sugar intake:

7. Eat a savory breakfast. Sweet breakfasts like cereals, pastries, & pancakes lead to rapid glucose spikes because they're high in refined sugars or simple carbohydrates. These sugar spikes are followed by sharp drops in blood sugar... Which leads to fatigue, irritability, & hunger soon after eating. On the other hand? A savory breakfast (eggs, avocado, lean proteins, vegetables) is less likely to cause a rapid glucose spike... Helping you maintain more stable blood sugar levels throughout the day.

6. Order of Eating Matters. Eating in a specific order helps reduce glucose spikes. Jessie recommends eating vegetables or fiber-rich foods first... Followed by protein, & leaving starchy carbs or sugar for last. This sequence helps slow down the absorption of sugar & prevents sharp increases in blood glucose levels.

5. Avoid Glucose Spikes. Glucose spikes not only leave you feeling drowsy... They're also aging our bodies. The trick to curb these spikes? Balance your meals by including protein & fiber with carbs. For example: If you have pasta, add a protein source (chicken, steak, etc.) & fiber-rich vegetables (spinach, broccoli, etc.). This will slow down the absorption of sugar and prevent a spike.

3. Avoid Liquid Sugars. Sugary drinks (like sodas, fruit juices, & sweetened coffee) cause a rapid spike in blood sugar. Since liquids are absorbed more quickly than solid foods... They don’t trigger the same feeling of fullness, making it easier to consume excess sugar without realizing it. Here's a great video from insulinresistant1 on TikTok demonstrating these spikes: (After you're done the video, scroll down for the best replacement sugar)

2. Don't avoid THIS sugar. All sugars are technically equal to the body... But whole fruits contain fiber which helps the body process the glucose properly. Whole fruits will always be the best form of sugar.

1. Drink vinegar. Yes, you heard that right. Whether it's pure white vinegar or apple cider vinegar... Drink it 10 minutes before having dinner or a big meal. I'll let Jessie explain how this one works:

It's no secret that sugar is bad for our bodies. But it doesn't mean you have to completely cut it out of your life. Just be smart about how you consume it. Follow these 7 hacks from Jessie.
