Jessie Inchauspé.

The biochemist who´s dedicated her life to researching blood sugar.

Her message?

The fitness industry lied to you. Fat loss isn´t just about calories. It´s about blood sugar levels.

Here are her top 7 cheat codes to master them for fat loss: 🧵
Many fitness influencers only focusing on calories in - calories out completely ignore HOW your body processes food

Your blood sugar levels affect everything relating to fat loss like:

- Hunger
- Cortisol
- Cravings
- Inflammation
- Energy levels
- Insulin resistance.
If all of these factors about your health are messed up, it will be MUCH harder to lose fat.

Plus, even if you´re in calorie deficit...

A diet leading to higher blood sugar levels and spikes is still bad for your health.

So here´s how to have healthy blood sugar levels:
1. Don´t think a food is healthy just because it´s "Vegan".

Vegan products can be extremely high in carbs and sugar with the natural animal fats replaced with inflammatory fake seed oils...

Always check the nutrition label and ingredients list.
2. Eat your food in the right order.

The order you eat the protein, carbs, fats and veggies in your meal massively affects the glucose spike you get...

Eventhough you´re still consuming the same number of calories.
3. Choose fruit over processed sugar.

They´re not the same.

Fruit contains many other substances like:

- Fiber
- Vitamins
- Enzymes
- Antioxidants

Which change how your body processes the sugar in it.

Eating fruit will help you satisfy your sugar cravings too.
4. Be mindful of glucose spikes.

When blood sugar spikes rapidly, your pancreas floods your system with insulin - the fat storage hormone.

This hormone literally tells your body to convert glucose to body fat.

You also get a blood sugar crash later...
5. Drink vinegar before meals.

Sounds strange but it works.

It causes your muscles to absorb more glucose from your blood and it slows carb digestion.

Here´s how:
6. Skip the sugar bomb breakfast.

Cereals and pastries flood your system with glucose.

This creates a massive insulin response that puts your body in fat storage mode for hours and then leads to a crash later.

A protein-rich breakfast keeps glucose and energy levels steady.
7. Be mindful of fruit juice.

It´s marketed as "healthy" because it´s fruit and has vitamins...

But it actually spikes your blood sugar just like coca cola.

Turning fruit into juice removes the fiber so it´s digested much faster.
Jessie Inchauspé´s top 7 hacks for healthy blood sugar levels:

- Avoid glucose spikes
- Don´t drink fruit juice
- Protein-rich breakfast
- Eat veg in your meals first
- Drink vinegar before meals
- Don´t eat high-sugar vegan food
- Choose fruit over processed sugar. Image

The healthcare system is WRONG about cholesterol.

Cholesterol alone doesn't clog your arteries and cause heart disease.

Paul Saladino and world-class cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Ovadia did a 1.5 hour podcast and revealed what actually does (and how to fix it): 🧵
Dr. Ovadia has done thousands of heart surgeries.

He says that every patient that ends up on his operating table is a failure of the healthcare system.

They followed the advice.

They took the medications they were prescribed for decades.

They still got heart disease.
LDL needs context.

Not all LDL is the same.

When you look at insulin resistance and inflammation, it predicts who LDL is problematic for and who it isn't.

A high LDL number alone tells you almost nothing about heart disease risk.

Insulin resistance isn't on your doctor's radar until you're already diabetic...

But it fuels heart disease faster than cholesterol ever could.

Half of heart attack victims have "normal" cholesterol.

Most have insulin resistance.

Here's how it works (& 8 steps to fix it):🧵
When you have insulin resistance, your body doesn't store blood sugar correctly so you have chronically high blood sugar levels.

This damages artery walls, raises triglycerides and shrinks LDL into small dense particles.

This significantly raises your risk of heart disease. Image
1. Reduce inflammation.

Inflammation directly damages insulin signaling at the cellular level.

It blocks your cells from responding to insulin properly.

Reduce it by cutting processed food, improving sleep and consuming more omega-3s from fatty fish like salmon. Image

Dr. Robert Lustig.

The scientist who’s spent 25 years exposing what really causes obesity.

His breakthrough? It's not so much about calories. It's about insulin.

Here are his top 6 unconventional lessons for fat loss and health (bookmark this): 🧵
1. Weight gain can be partly emotional.

You can eat and exercise the same but still gain weight due to stress...

Weight loss isn't always just "Eat less and move more".

Stress makes your cells burn less calories and it affects your brain. Here's how:
2. Sugar from fruit is not the same as sugar from junk food.

Fruit:

- Is full of vital nutrients
- Is low-calorie & filling so you normally won't overeat it
- Has fiber that reduces blood sugar spikes.

Bone Broth is the best drink on the planet for your gut health.

Big Pharma shill $60 probiotic pills and artificial meds that barely work...

While Bone Broth literally rebuilds your gut and even makes your skin younger.

Here are its benefits (and exactly how to have it): 🧵
1. Gelatin rebuilds your gut lining.

When you simmer bones, collagen breaks down into gelatin.

Gelatin forms a protective coating over your gut. It seals the mucosal lining so toxins stop leaking into your bloodstream.

Drink one cup a day for gut repair.
2. L-Glutamine fuels intestinal cells.

Your gut uses 30% of your body's total glutamine to function.

This amino acid feeds the rapidly dividing cells lining your intestines.

It strengthens the gut barrier and lowers inflammation.

Bone broth delivers it naturally.
