🌼✨ Struggling with blood sugar balance during perimenopause? It' actually super common! 🌼✨
As hormonal changes can lead to unpredictable blood sugar levels, it's important to eat balanced meals- protein forward (eat your protein first and make sure it's at every meals, and eat high fiber carbs earlier in the day- check out protein and carb balance breakfast ideas in the posted pictures- and for meal plans get my free pdf through the video link in my linktree/link in bio). 🍳🥑🍓
Did you know that estrogen plays a key role in glucose processing? As levels drop, your body's ability to manage sugar can become a bit wobbly. This can lead to worsening menopause/late perimenopause symptoms like hot flashes, irritability, and weight gain. But don’t worry! With the right strategies, you can regain control. 🙌
Here are some tips for stabilizing your blood sugar:
1️⃣ Incorporate high-fiber foods and healthy fats.
2️⃣ Time your carbs wisely—opt for complex carbs in the morning.
3️⃣ Keep track of your levels for better insights. I like to recommend tracking your food a few days per week so you can track your fiber and protein intake. I like CarbManager, MyFitnessPal, and Cronometer apps for tracking.
Let’s break the cycle together! For more info, check out the Youtube video (https://youtu.be/rM0-0CZ12iw) and blog link (https://www.perimenopause.help/perimenopause-blood-sugar/) in bio! 🔗💖
