We’ve been told that blood sugar only matters if you have diabetes — but that’s not true.

Biochemist and bestselling author Jessie Inchauspé (known as the “Glucose Goddess”) joins Kate to explain why blood sugar spikes affect energy, cravings, hormones, fertility, aging, and long-term health — even if you’re otherwise healthy.

Jessie breaks down the simple science behind glucose and shares practical hacks that can help stabilize blood sugar, reduce cravings, and improve energy throughout the day.

They also talk about how blood sugar impacts pregnancy, PCOS, exercise performance, and why many foods marketed as “healthy” may actually be causing glucose spikes.

• The biggest myth about blood sugar and metabolism
