Episode 558
Tuesday, 11 November, 2025
Blood sugar affects everything from your energy and sleep to your hormones and weight—yet most women are never taught how to manage it. In this episode, Kara Collier, RDN and co-founder of Nutrisense, shares what you need to know about CGMs, practical lifestyle hacks for glucose control, and the unique considerations women face after 35.Timestamps:[1:44] Intro[6:45] Interview with Kara[7:06] What did you see in your practice that made you realize blood sugar is a much bigger piece of the health puzzle?[10:51] Can you define what healthy blood sugar is, outside of markers on labs?[13:45] What does healthy blood sugar look like from a CGM perspective? [19:20] What's your opinion on why women are struggling more with blood sugar?[24:36] What do CGM's track and what data is most important? [36:10] Talk to me about the impact that stress has on our blood sugar and our ability to manage glucose.[41:06] What about exercise and sauna (the things that raise our heart rate)? What do we expect to see, what’s normal, and what’s not?[48:01] What are some of the most effective "hacks" in nutrition and exercise for blood sugar?[55:30] Do you think that carb timing influences blood sugar at all?[56:28] I got a CGM to see if there is anything obvious with my sleep. Am I trying to avoid spikes all together? [1:03:04] How do we actually reverse insulin resistance? [1:09:56] Is fasting really good for blood sugar?[1:11:38] My 10 -year -old daughter has been wearing a CGM for about a month now. She has high anxiety and I noticed that when her anxiety is high, a juice box will calm her down at night. Once we put a CGM on her, we realize that her glucose is pretty low on average. How do we keep her glucose up without eating straight sugar all the time? What are some good glucose boosting snacks?
