Ever feel sluggish or mentally foggy after a meal? This could be a sign that your blood sugar levels are spiking, which, if left unchecked, can lead to long-term health issues like type 2 diabetes.

In this episode, we dive into a simple yet incredibly effective way to lower your blood sugar: taking a walk after meals. It might sound too easy to be true, but the science behind it is solid—just a few minutes of walking can help stabilize blood sugar, boost your energy, and prevent that dreaded post-meal crash.

We’ll explore how this easy habit works, and how even just a short walk can have a measurable impact on your blood sugar levels. Plus, if walking isn’t your thing, we’ve got alternative activities that can offer the same benefits. 

Don’t let blood sugar spikes control your day—listen in to learn how making small changes can have a lasting effect on your health and energy.
