In this powerful podcast episode, Dra. Maria provides an overview of different types of diabetes, explains insulin resistance, and discusses how it relates to hormonal changes in women over 40. This is Dra. Maria's second time on the show and I just know you are going to learn so much from her this second time around!

We discuss:

-The different types of diabetes
-Explanation of glycemic index and its role in blood sugar management
-Tips for managing insulin sensitivity
-Importance of community support in managing diabetes
-The spiritual aspect of caring for one's body

Great quotes from Dra. Maria from this conversation:

"Vegetables are not the bad carbs. Eat your vegetables."
"Restriction will never lead you to freedom."
