Happy Monday, the last day of August. Let's make this week different as we head into September. Move a little more, that's it, just move a little more.
Walks are so underrated! !

🔥High fasting glucose on your lab results? It’s probably not what you think.🔥
One of the first things I hear when someone's fasting blood sugar comes back high:
🔥🔥“But I don't eat much sugar.”🔥🔥
🔥🔥“I barely eat carbs.”🔥🔥
And they may be telling the truth.
Because 🔥high blood sugar isn't always a sugar problem.🔥
Your fasting glucose can be affected by a lot more than what you ate yesterday:
• How active you are
• How much muscle you have
• Whether you strength train
• Your body composition
• Your overall diet
• How much you sleep
• Stress
• Your insulin sensitivity
And here's the part a lot of people don't realize:
**You don't even have to EAT glucose for glucose to enter your bloodstream. Your body can make it and your liver can release it.**
That's why simply cutting out sugar or carbs doesn't necessarily address what's actually going on.
In my latest blog, I break down **why fasting blood sugar can be elevated even if you don't eat much sugar — and why strength training, building muscle, daily movement, nutrition and sleep all matter.**
Before you blame the carbs, **understand what your lab results may actually be telling you.**
