Tools for addressing Diabetes: micronutrients One of the most direct measures we have for metabolic health is glucose, or blood sugar, since that constitutes much of the fuel for your cells, as well as insulin, the hormone that helps our cells take in glucose. Consistently high blood sugar and impaired insulin function (called insulin resistance) are behind most of the conditions that come with poor metabolic health, including, most directly, diabetes and prediabetes. Type 2 diabetes is advanced insulin resistance, where the body has become so insulin resistant that blood sugar climbs dangerously high, damaging parts of the body from the eyes to the muscle tissue. Metabolic dysfunction and insulin resistance can significantly increase the risk of other diseases including cancer, heart disease and dementia. To build a metabolically healthy body a key tool we have is what we put into our bodies; firstly, the food we eat; secondly, what we need to take out and thirdly, when we need to eat. The good news is that none of these strategies is about deprivation.
