Glucose Goddess: "I Broke My Back And This Healed Me" | Improve Your Family's Health With This
Dr. Carlos: I had the opportunity to interview Jessie, also known as "Glucose Goddess," and her journey is truly inspiring. Jessie is a mathematician who, after completing her studies, delved into the field of biochemistry following a life-altering accident where she fractured her spine. It was through biochemistry that she gained a deep understanding of how the body functions. Working in Silicon Valley, she was provided with a glucose monitor for testing purposes, and that's when her fascination with glucose spikes in the body began. Determined to share her newfound knowledge, Jessie started conducting experiments with her family and friends, analyzing their glucose curve patterns. Her dedication led her to share her insights on social media, where she gained immense popularity. To date, she has authored two books, "Glucose Revolution" and "The Glucose Goddess Method." Jessie's mission stirs around addressing the lack of awareness people have about the effects of glucose and its interaction with our lifestyle. She emphasizes that it is possible to manage glucose spikes without having to give up the foods we love. Her approach is rooted in sharing knowledge and empowering individuals to understand their glucose behavior. In her interviews, she sheds light on important topics such as the significance of biochemistry in our daily lives and the need to educate ourselves about glucose management. During our conversation, Jessie stressed that more than 90% of the population experiences glucose spikes, often unknowingly. She candidly shared her personal journey of discovering the impact of glucose on her own health and how it transformed her life. She realized that her experiences were not unique and that many people remain unaware of their prediabetic or diabetic status. One of the key takeaways from our interview was the importance of individuality. Jessie firmly believes that each person's glucose behavior is unique, and understanding these patterns can be incredibly useful for managing one's health. She shared insights on how high spikes should ideally go and addressed the concept of the "sugar crash" that many individuals experience. Throughout our conversation, Jessie encouraged her audience not to become fixed on numbers but to focus on the bigger picture. She highlighted the significance of considering overall well-being and making informed choices that align with personal goals and preferences. Jessie, the Glucose Goddess, has truly made a difference in the lives of many by raising awareness about glucose management. Her journey, passion, and dedication to sharing knowledge serve as an inspiration for all those seeking to understand and optimize their own health. 0:00 Introduction 0:39 The Importance of Biochemistry in our lives 3:13 Why I am the glucose goddess? 5:06 More than 90% of the population has these spikes 5:57 I started with myself 6:58 This changed my life too… 9:07 7 out of 10 don’t know they have diabetes 11:22 We are not the same 13:56 To know your glucose behavior is very useful 16:23 How high should the spike go? 17:53 Let’s talk about the sugar crash 19:00 Don’t be obsessed with the numbers, look at the bigger picture —--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My recommended AMAZON products: https://amzn.to/3ONjKXy - Find out about the best functional supplement with Bone Broth Power at https://youaresavvy.com/ - If you want to buy my book and SUPPLEMENTS in Colombia, please visit https://tienda.medicinafuncional.co/ Domestic Shipping https://tienda.medicinafuncional.co/ - If you would like to be the first to receive information for future workshops and conferences, live or online, please enter the following form https://forms.gle/eXHDBjCu4KzgK98G8 - Dr. Carlos Jaramillo and the Institute of Functional Medicine seek that you always have good habits and above all clarity about how daily decisions produce many of the diseases that humanity has today. - My Social Networks Instagram / drcarlosjaramillo Facebook / drcarlosjaramillo - My official website https://drcarlosjaramillo.com/ - The official website of the Institute of Functional Medicine is https://medicinafuncional.co/ - Find out about the best proteins and supplements at https://youaresavvy.com/ - Dr. Carlos Jaramillo publishes these videos for educational purposes but they do not represent any therapeutic recommendation for any person so the follow-up of their indications is the individual responsibility and not the responsibility of the creator of the content.
