Lung cancer is most often linked to smoking—but could modern diet play a role too?
This article reviews a large U.S. study on ultra-processed foods, processed meats, and lung cancer risk, explaining what the data show, what they don’t, and how it applies to everyday life.

Most people think blood sugar problems start when glucose is “too high.”
But long before that, another issue often shows up first: glucose variability—the daily spikes and crashes that quietly strain the body even when HbA1c looks normal.

This article explains what glucose variability is, why it matters, and practical ways to improve it. It also includes simple tools to check your own glucose stability using a CGM or fingerstick readings.

Most people think insulin is simply “high” or “low.”
In reality, insulin is released in phases—and when those phases break down, metabolic damage begins long before diabetes is diagnosed.

This article explains how insulin secretion is timed, what goes wrong, and how to support healthier insulin signaling for better long-term health.

Insulin is not just “on” or “off.”
It is released in phases, and problems begin when insulin arrives late, not when it runs out.

In this article, I explain:
• The cephalic, first, and second phases of insulin secretion
• What goes wrong in prediabetes and type 2 diabetes
• Why more insulin is often not better
• Practical strategies to improve insulin timing and lower insulin demand

Understanding insulin timing can change how we think about blood sugar, insulin resistance, and long-term health.

How long does fasting really take to improve insulin resistance?
Most people look at glucose numbers too soon and miss the early signs of recovery.

This article explains what improves first, what changes week by week, and why insulin—not glucose—leads the way.

Does fasting actually create new insulin-producing cells in humans—or is that overstated?

This article breaks down what the science really shows about beta-cell recovery, function, and preservation, without hype.

Most people think HbA1c is just a blood sugar average.
It’s not.

HbA1c is a warning sign of whole-body glycation—a slow process that stiffens fascia, damages kidneys, affects nerves, and silently injures organs years before diabetes is diagnosed.

Painful feet, stiff fingers, rising creatinine, and limited mobility often appear long before a devastating diagnosis.

In this article, I explain how glycation works, why disease happens slowly… then suddenly, and what you can still do to slow or partially reverse the damage.

Your HbA1c may be telling you far more than whether you have diabetes.

This article explains how HbA1c can reveal metabolic damage years before diabetes is diagnosed, why sugar spikes matter, and how your liver can quietly raise glucose even when you eat “healthy.”

Many people with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes are told that certain supplements can “regenerate” pancreatic beta cells and even reverse diabetes. But what does the science really show—especially in humans?

In this article, I break down what beta cells do, what supplements can realistically support, and why no supplement has been proven to regenerate beta cells. Knowledge saves time, money, and false hope.

Many readers have asked about the 10,800 FU nattokinase study and what its findings really mean for artery health.

High fibrinogen levels can quietly raise inflammation, thicken your blood, and increase your risk for heart attack or stroke—often long before symptoms appear.

In my newest article, I break down what fibrinogen really means and how to lower it naturally.
