Hi Reader
β
This week's YouTube video is not a trending topic, and honestly? It probably won't get a ton of views.
β
But here's the thing: I don't make videos to go viral. I make them to genuinely help people and lately, this topic has been coming up constantly in my clinic.
β
I've been having so many conversations with clients about blood sugar control. Many of them work with their doctor alongside me, and taking a proactive approach has revealed something important: a lot of them have pre-diabetes and had absolutely no idea.
β
Here's what's scary: most people with pre-diabetes don't know they have it. And by the time the doctor brings it up, you're often already in the diabetic range and being told you need medication.
The truth? There's a lot you can do before it ever gets to that point.
β
That's where your HbA1c comes in. You might have seen those blood glucose monitors people use now β they give you a snapshot of your blood sugar at one moment. But HbA1c shows your average blood sugar control over the last 2-3 months. There's no hiding. You can't trick it by eating well just one day before the test.
And that's exactly why being proactive matters so much. If you catch pre-diabetes early, you can make huge changes before it ever turns into a conversation about diabetes.
β
So if this sounds relevant to you β or someone you care about β I'd really encourage you to watch this week's video. I break down what HbA1c actually is, why it matters, and the practical, science-backed steps you can start right now to balance your blood sugars naturally.
β
And these tips aren't just for people with diabetes β they'll benefit anyone who wants more steady energy, fewer cravings, and better long-term health.
