|Demonstrating how easy it is to increase insulin sensitivity by de-stressing|
Last week we talked about the main cause of insulin resistance (consuming too much sugar) ,and some of the health risks associated with it. If you missed it, here’s the link.
What I failed to touch on last week is just how insane this problem is. As of 2011, 25.8 million Americans have diabetes, that’s 8.3%... and 79 million have prediabetes, which is over 25% of us!

We covered a lot of this in the first article. One of the best things...
