In this episode of Life Time Talks, Jamie Martin interviews Life Time's Chief Science Officer, Jim LaValle, about insulin resistance and blood sugar mastery. Jim explains what insulin resistance is, how it differs from blood sugar dysregulation, and the ideal states for blood sugar and insulin sensitivity. He discusses the serious health conditions linked to insulin resistance, such as kidney disease, heart disease, Alzheimer's, and blindness. The conversation covers hidden causes of insulin resistance, including sleep disturbances, stress, environmental exposures, and micronutrient deficiencies. They explore methods for monitoring blood sugar, including blood tests and continuous glucose monitors (CGMs), and lifestyle habits to manage insulin resistance, such as time-restricted eating, exercise, and stress management. Jim also details how Miura supports individuals in managing insulin resistance through healthcare providers, dieticians, trainers, and targeted supplementation.
