Are you one of the millions of Americans who eat the Standard American Diet? Even if you’re not, you’re likely at risk of developing pre-diabeties, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation. But, DON’T panic, because today’s episode is packed with simple steps to help you take control of your blood sugar and lower your risk of diabetes and chronic disease. On this Salad with a Side of Fries episode, host Jenn Trepeck tackles the hard truth: many people are already pre-diabetic and don’t even know it. From hidden insulin resistance to chronic inflammation, Jenn breaks down how the American diet and lifestyle are fueling a national health crisis. You'll learn how poor sleep, stress, a lack of fiber, and nutrient-depleted foods undermine your metabolic health—and what you can do today to take control and manage your risks. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let’s dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store.
