Show Highlights & Big Takeaways:

 

1. Body

When your blood sugar spikes the body releases insulin. Insulin unlocks cells to get glucose to the cells.

2. Mind

Dopamine is released during the sugar cycle leaving you feeling happy and elated for a short period of time. Once this begins to wear off you begin to search for more sugar.

3. Break the Cycle

If your blood sugar gets dysregulated make sure to get in fiber and protein the next time you eat.  Adding protein to stabilize blood sugar will break the cycle.
