Insulin is a Fat Hormone
15 FebThis is a great video! I have been learning that insulin is a fat hormone! The more carbs you eat, the more insulin you need to keep your blood sugar in the right range, the more fat you store…. that is why a Paleo diet low in starches and fruit will help me lower my insulin levels and lose weight! Here we go! Starting next Wednesday, I will be taking out all starchy foods and fruit, in addition to eating Paleo (no gluten, dairy, or sugar/fake sugar) for 40 days! I will keep you posted on how I do!
