Carbs, Blood Sugar & The Truth Behind Weight Loss Part 1

Episode 21

You’ve probably heard it a thousand times: “Carbs are bad—especially if you want to lose weight.” And it’s true that our modern food supply is overloaded with processed carbs that damage your metabolism and wreck your waistline. But that’s not the whole story when it comes to weight loss, energy, and long-term health.

In this episode, I break down how carbs affect blood sugar, how protein and fat act differently, and how insulin sensitivity changes over time—and the key to sustainable weight loss. 

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • 01:45 — Why carbs raise blood sugar differently than fat or protein

  • 12:50 — The overlooked modern foods wrecking your metabolism
