Blood Sugar Monitoring Program: A Real-Time Insight into Your Spot on the Blood Sugar Rollercoaster
Blood sugar, also known as glucose, refers to the main sugar that is found in our blood. We get this sugar from the food we eat, and it is necessary for our bodies to function properly. However, our blood sugar levels are like Goldilocks and the Three Bears. It needs to be just right. If it is too low or too high, there can be problems.
Prolonged high blood sugar levels may lead to insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is when insulin is present within the body, but it is not working as it should.
Now you may be wondering, why should I care about insulin resistance, put simply, it can disrupt every aspect of your life.
Insulin resistance can lead to:
• Brain Fog
• Infertility
• Irregular menstrual cycles
• Irritability
• Constipation or loose bowel movements-alternating
• Weight gain
• Water retention
