So fun to look back on our FIRST lecture in Menu for Change, almost 10 years ago! Although I’m certain Dr. Molly Carlson would give a much different talk today, there are plenty of concepts that still ring true. Join me in a walk down memory lane with this one!
Learn why sugar is sugar, regardless of what form it comes in, and how to find hidden sugars in foods. What is insulin resistance and how it leads to diabetes and weight gain. What is the glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL), and how eating in a lower GI/GL way can reduce both hunger and weight as well as promote healthy blood sugar levels.
