	#74 - Gut Health, Blood Sugar & Weight Loss: What Actually Matters?	07 oct. 2026	00:29:41
If you want early access to future episodes AND the chance to submit your own questions for Rapid Fire Friday, join us inside the Type Two Remission Room: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d You hear about “gut health” everywhere. Take a probiotic. Eat fermented foods. Add more fiber. Buy a greens powder. Try an elimination diet. But what does gut health actually mean, and what does any of it have to do with blood sugar, weight loss, and metabolic health? In this episode of the Diabetes Remission Roadmap, Cory sits down with Elizabeth Aylor, a Holistic Nutritionist, GAPS Practitioner, Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist, and kinesiology graduate. Elizabeth works with functional lab testing and has helped thousands of women struggling with gut, hormonal, and metabolic concerns. And for Elizabeth, this work is personal. In her early 20s, she dealt with an eating disorder and multiple gut infections, including H. pylori and candida, experiences that ultimately helped shape the work she does today. We start with the basics: What exactly is an unhealthy gut? Because it isn't always just bloating, gas, constipation, or running to the bathroom. From there, we dig into the potential connections between gut health and metabolic health, why two people can respond very differently to the same diet, and why blindly following keto, carnivore, vegan, low-FODMAP, or any other diet, may miss the bigger picture. We also discuss: Why gut health is about more than taking a probiotic Gut health, insulin resistance, blood sugar, and weight loss Why Cory and Elizabeth agree that muscle matters Protein, fiber, carbs, and pairing foods for better blood sugar Keto, carnivore, vegan, intermittent fasting, and the diet wars Why the “best” nutrition plan needs to be sustainable Elizabeth's perspective on IBS and looking beyond symptoms Why she wants people to stop buying random gut-health supplements The danger of copying someone else's gut protocol from social media Why feeling better on a restrictive diet doesn't necessarily answer why you were having symptoms in the first place If you've ever felt like you're doing everything “right”: eating better, exercising, trying supplements, and your body still isn't responding the way you expected, this conversation will give you some new questions to consider. Most importantly: don't get overwhelmed by all the noise.

	#73 - Rapid Fire Friday: Post-Meal Walks Enough, What Counts as Exercise, and Pasta Alternatives?	25 sept. 2026	00:19:24
If you want early access to future episodes AND the chance to submit your own questions for Rapid Fire Friday, join us inside the Type Two Remission Room: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Can walking for just 5 minutes after a meal really lower your blood sugar? Does vacuuming, doing the dishes, or picking up toys count as exercise? And is chickpea or lentil pasta actually better for your blood sugar than regular pasta? Brian is BACK for another Rapid Fire Friday, and we're answering three practical questions that all come down to one bigger idea: You don't have to do everything perfectly. You need to find the minimum effective dose—and then pay attention to whether it's actually working. In this episode, we cover: Are 5-minute walks after meals really enough? Why five minutes isn't magic—but it may be enough to get your muscles working and help with post-meal blood sugar. And if five turns into 10 or 15? Even better. Does housework count as movement? Vacuuming, dishes, yard work, walking around the house—it all beats sitting on the couch. But there's an important difference between moving and assuming that movement is enough to accomplish all of your health goals. Is lentil or chickpea pasta actually better for blood sugar? Our favorite answer: compared to what? We talk protein, fiber, satiety, “health halos,” ingredient labels—and why the only way to know how a food affects YOUR blood sugar is to pay attention to what actually happens when you eat it. Plus, Cory talks youth basketball, Brian returns from newborn life, and somehow we end up discussing our first-ever one-star review. If you're overwhelmed by everything you're supposedly “supposed” to do for type 2 diabetes, this episode is your reminder: Start small. Move more. Pay attention to your results. Then build from there.

	#72 - You KNOW What to Do for Your Blood Sugar. So Why Aren't You Doing It?	16 sept. 2026	00:34:26
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d You know walking after meals can help your blood sugar. You know you should prioritize protein, build muscle, sleep better, and make healthier food choices. So…why is it still so hard to actually DO those things consistently? Maybe you don't need more information. Maybe you need to change the story you tell yourself about who you are. In this episode of the Diabetes Remission Roadmap, Cory sits down with Dr. Kim Foster, former family physician, bestselling author of Redesigning You, TEDx speaker, and expert in identity-based behavior change. After nearly 20 years in medicine, Dr. Foster noticed something fascinating: she could give the same health advice to two intelligent, motivated patients. One would transform their life. The other would come back months later frustrated that nothing had changed. What was different? We dig into why statements like: "I've always had a sweet tooth." "I'm not an exercise person." "I always quit." "This stuff never works for me." …aren't just descriptions. They can become instructions for how you behave. You'll learn why jumping straight from "I'm unhealthy" to "I'm a health nut" usually doesn't work, how to create a believable bridge identity, and why tiny wins become evidence that you're capable of becoming someone different. We also talk about what happens when the new identity gets tested. If you keep telling yourself, "I know what I need to do. I just can't seem to stick with it," this episode is for you. Your past may explain the story you've been telling yourself. It doesn't have to write the next chapter.

	# 71 - How One Client Proved Her Doctor(s) Wrong and Took Back Her Health	02 sept. 2026	00:27:08
“You can expect to have Type 2 diabetes in 10 years.” These were the words our client, Kelly, heard from her doctor while she was working through a gestational diabetes diagnosis many years ago. In this emotional episode, we talk with our client Kelly about breaking out of the A1C dread cycle and rebuilding confidence after years of being told type 2 diabetes is inevitable. Kelly shares the small, targeted changes that finally moved her blood sugar trends, built her strength, and gave her hope without extreme rules even after years of working with doctors and dieticians. Kelly shares her journey, including; • Fear, frustration, and the “threat of medication” shaping the patient-doctor relationship • CGM data driving anxiety without a clear plan to act on trends • Why “eat better and exercise more” fails when it becomes restriction and endless cardio • Stacking small wins: movement around meals, exercise snacks, and targeted strength training • Eating for satiety to reduce snacking and constant glucose challenges • Fasted workouts supported by hydration and electrolytes • Progress markers beyond weight: inches, energy, digestion, sleep, and confidence • Dawn phenomenon improvements and faster post-meal recovery • Handling surgery, illness, migraines, stress, and life events without giving up If you have been caught in the undercurrent of overwhelm that diabetes can bring, we know that Kelly’s story will be a beacon of hope and inspiration.

	#70 - Rapid Fire Friday: Low Cholesterol & Dementia, REAL Statin Side Effects, and the Truth About Niacin	28 août 2026	00:28:21
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Can statins cause dementia? Are the side effects really “all in your head”? And could you just take niacin instead? Cholesterol advice online tends to fall into two camps: statins are lifesaving drugs everyone should take, or statins are dangerous drugs everyone should avoid. The truth is a lot more nuanced. For this Rapid-Fire Friday, pharmacist and metabolic health expert Austin Dudzinski is back to answer YOUR cholesterol questions. We dig into: -Statins, cholesterol, and dementia: What does the evidence actually show, and why does how you lower cholesterol matter? -The real side effects of statins: Muscle aches, weakness, fatigue, brain fog and more. What's legitimate, what's overblown, and what should you do if you don't feel right? -Niacin vs. statins: Niacin can make several cholesterol markers look better on paper…but does that actually translate into fewer heart attacks and better health? - Better numbers vs. better outcomes: Why improving a lab value doesn't automatically mean you're healthier. Most importantly, Austin explains why cholesterol treatment shouldn't be reduced to “statins good” or “statins bad.” Your individual cardiovascular risk, symptoms, medications, biomarkers and goals all matter. If you've ever been told you need a statin because you have type 2 diabetes, or you've avoided one because of something you've heard online, this conversation will give you a much better framework for talking with your healthcare team. Austin Dudzinksi is a board-certified clinical pharmacy specialist with interest in nutrition and metabolism and owner of the digital healthcare communications company, Digital Conversation.

	#69 - From an A1C of 6.9% to 5.0%: How One Listener Changed Everything in 3 Months	19 août 2026	00:24:45
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Ben Gougeon is an arts administrator, actor, director, and theatre producer. You may have seen him in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Law & Order: SVU, The Blacklist, a multitude of commercials, or on stages across the country. His most famous "role" is a listener of the Diabetes Remission Roadmap (ok, that's just our opinion) who took serious action on his blood sugar. Ben shares how he turned around abrand-new type 2 diabetes diagnosis through simple food changes, daily walking, and steady experimentation. We talk through the real habits that took his A1C from 6.9% to 5.0% in about three months, plus the mindset shifts that keep the progress going with a busy family life. In this episode, we discuss: • Prediabetes and the “no urgency” problem when symptoms stay quiet • Choosing lifestyle changes before starting metformin and why that decision feels empowering • Low-carb eating with minimal processed sugar to improve satiety and curb cravings • Intermittent fasting as a flexible tool rather than an all-or-nothing rule • The importance of simple meals that fit real life • Using small wins and daily glucose trends to stay motivated between A1C checks • Building a better environment through what you listen to and who you learn from • Practical encouragement for anyone overwhelmed by a new diagnosis If you have been struggling with a Type 2 Diabetes diagnosis, and have wondered if improvement is possible, you won't want to miss this episode.

	#68 - Can Taking a Break Actually Help Your Blood Sugar?	05 août 2026	00:16:36
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Your blood sugar isn’t just reacting to carbs, it’s reacting to stress, recovery, and whether your body has enough muscle to store energy safely. From the outside, taking a week off the gym can look like “falling behind.” From the inside, it can be the smartest move you make all year. We challenge the idea that more workouts always means better blood sugar and explain why a planned break can actually move you forward. We share how we use deload weeks, keep daily movement high, and balance training with travel, family, and real life. Brian also shares an exciting update from his personal life and it means for the podcast! All this, plus: • What a planned deload week looks like and when to use it • The difference between dedicated exercise and everyday movement • Why recreational sports and walking help but do not replace strength training • Motivation versus discipline and how to restart after a break • How to plan travel weeks without spiraling and what it means to “play defense” on vacations If you have been wondering if it’s time to take a break from the gym, we know you’ll appreciate what we share in this episode.

	#67 - Rapid Fire Friday: Seed Oils, Saturated Fat, and Berberine	31 juil. 2026	00:14:24
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d If you’ve been scrolling nutrition content and walking away more confused than confident, we made this Rapid Fire Friday for you. Today we're tackling three questions that get people fired up online: -Are seed oils causing diabetes? -Does saturated fat block insulin receptors? -And should everyone be taking berberine?

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d A “money-back guarantee” diabetes program sounds like it should give you confidence… until you notice the hidden incentive: if you don’t hit your goals, they keep your money. That question kicked off a candid discussion about why type 2 diabetes behavior change is less about finding new information and more about building implementation, accountability, and real support that leads to remission-level results. In this episode, we discuss: • Why six weeks can be a misleading timeframe for A1C and medication reduction goals • The difference between information and implementation and why most people already know the basics • How “skin in the game” drives focus and follow-through • Why accountability is less about policing and more about hard questions • How low-cost fitness and health programs can rely on low engagement to work as a business model If you have been struggling choosing the approach that gives you the best chance of success, better metabolic health, and a real return on investment compared to years of rising meds and complications, then this episode is for you.

	#63 - Are More GLP-1 Medications The Answer for Type 2 Diabetes?	24 juin 2026	00:20:25
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d “Start GLP-1 meds earlier” sounds like a clean, modern solution to type 2 diabetes. But what happens when that advice quietly assumes diabetes is “naturally progressive” and that needing more medication over time is simply your fate? A loyal listener sent us an article about the benefits of starting a GLP-1 earlier in Type 2 diabetes. In this episode, we give GLP-1 drugs their credit while calling out the “progressive and inevitable” story that can keep people stuck in medication dependence instead of rebuilding muscle, habits, and agency. We also cover: • Why GLP-1 medications are some of the most effective diabetes drugs to date • Why metformin stays first line for many people • How cost, insurance coverage, and prescribing habits shape “standard of care” • What feels wrong about calling type 2 diabetes naturally progressive • Using medication as a bridge while building lifestyle skills • How sponsorships and incentives can bias health information • The question to ask if a medication disappeared tomorrow Check out the article we reference here: https://tcoyd.org/2026/04/starting-a-glp-1/?utm_id=97757_v0_s00_e227_tv0 Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes?

	#58 - What If Type 2 Remission Starts With Love?	27 mai 2026	00:30:20
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d If you’re living and dying by your A1C, your CGM average, or the number of pills in your cabinet, it’s easy to believe one bad day means you’re failing. This week, Brian goes solo and shares his own health story, because the real barrier for many people with type 2 diabetes isn’t just carbs or willpower. It’s the quiet belief that you have to earn your worth by fixing your body. Brian walks through how he went from being overweight and out of shape in pharmacy school, to “getting healthy,” to becoming so rigid that food started to feel dangerous and control started to seep into his relationships. Along the way, working as a pharmacist inside the hospital system made one thing clear: chronic illness is everywhere, burnout is real, and band-aid approaches rarely touch the root cause. Brian shares his own Steady Strengthening routine right now, and why walking and rucking can be a practical blood sugar tool., But he hopes that the biggest takeaway from this episode is mindset: when your worth depends on a lab result, every setback becomes an identity crisis. When you start from the truth that you’re already worthy and loved, you can face high blood sugar as information, not condemnation and you can build habits without obsession, shame, or fear.

In this episode, we challenge the idea that a “good” A1C means you are safe, and explain how type 2 diabetes can build for years before blood sugar finally spikes. Having some fun at the expense of Brian’s favorite baseball team, we show how to read the under the hood signs of insulin resistance and take practical steps toward remission without extreme diets. Listen to learn: • How A1C works and why it can miss early metabolic trouble • The long compensation phase: hyperinsulinemia, insulin resistance, and storage capacity running out • Under the hood lab markers that show you may be in for a blood sugar shock • Non-lab clues your disease is getting worse • Why numbers can jump fast after years of quiet strain • How to measure progress beyond the scale If you have ever been surprised by an unexpected jump in your blood sugar, or want to avoid one, this episode will explain why, and what to do about it.

	#55 - From 278lbs to a Marathon at 58: The power of Satiety, Simplicity and Self-Accountability	06 mai 2026	00:33:56
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d We talk with Chris Cornell (aka Biggest Comeback). At 278 pounds in his 50s, Chris knew something had to change. What followed wasn’t another extreme diet or complicated system. It was a simple, repeatable approach built around satiety, self-accountability, and becoming his own experiment. In this can’t miss episode, Chris and Cory talk about why hunger control beats willpower and how a few simple food rules can drive lasting weight loss and better metabolic health. We connect his comeback story to type 2 diabetes remission by focusing on satiety, muscle, and realistic habits that lower the odds of sliding back into “managed forever.” The conversation covers: • Type 2 diabetes as a muscle and energy storage problem • Chris’s 278-pound wake-up moment and the rebound trap of white-knuckle calorie restriction • Low carb as a tool for satiety rather than a rigid identity • Why calorie counting fails when hunger and cravings stay high • N=1 experimentation and adapting general guidelines to real life • Chris’s satiety rules including protein targets, carb range, and time boundaries • Why fasting can backfire before food quality is fixed • A simple starting step: prioritize satiating protein-rich foods. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “too late”… or that health has to be complicated to make your own Biggest Comeback… This one’s for you.

You’ll see how progress happens when the guidance fits the person, not when you collect more instructions. You’ll hear all of this plus how Brian and Cory’s coaching styles differ and complement each other, when and how to seek a 2nd opinion while avoiding conflicting extremes, and how to get curious and learn rather than spiral after making a mistake.

	#50 - The Most Overlooked Blood Sugar Habit Has Nothing to Do With Food or Exercise	08 avr. 2026	00:18:23
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d We talk a lot about diet, exercise, and blood sugar on this podcast. But one of the most powerful influences on blood sugar and long-term health is something much simpler: relationships. In this special episode, recorded TOGETHER live from Cory’s home in Tucson while Brian visited, we step back from nutrition and talk about the role that connection, friendship, and community play in blood sugar and overall health. From lowering stress to improving habits and resilience, the people around us can shape our health more than we realize. We also talk about why modern life makes meaningful connection harder, and why investing in relationships may be one of the most overlooked health habits. Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do isn’t a workout or a diet change. It’s spending time with people you care about. Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes? Grab your earbuds and listen in.

As a bonus this week, Brian insults Cory’s age by implying his bladder strength is not what it once was. Cory quickly gets things back on the rails, and the two of them tackle these three listener questions: -Does food pairing to control blood sugar spikes work in the long run to put diabetes remission if there is no net decrease in energy intake? Aka: Can I keep eating donuts as long as I eat it AFTER some protein to reduce my blood sugar spikes? -Are fasted workouts a good idea for people with Type 2 diabetes? -Why have I never heard of a medication exit strategy? Got a question for Rapid Fire Friday? Sent it to brianandcory@diabetesremissionpartners.com Mentioned in the episode: Refer the podcast to three people and get a free gift from us!

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Just because a food is marketed as healthy doesn’t mean it supports your health, or your blood sugar. In this special episode recorded LIVE TOGETHER at Cory’s home in Tucson with Brian visiting, we break down the health halo effect, a common marketing trick that makes certain foods appear healthier than they actually are. Words like protein, low-fat, keto, or gluten-free can make us feel better about what we’re eating, even when the food itself isn’t doing us any favors. We talk about some of the most common “health halo” foods and explain why they can quietly lead to overeating and blood sugar spikes. You’ll learn: • What the health halo effect is • Why certain labels make us eat more • The difference between marketing and real nutrition • How to spot foods that actually support blood sugar health If you’ve ever bought something because it looked healthy and later wondered if it really was… this episode is for you.

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d You don’t struggle with eating blood sugar friendly foods because you lack discipline. You struggle because your environment is stacked against you. In this episode, we break down five places that quietly sabotage your blood sugar, including one that surprises almost everyone. From hospitals and airports to office break rooms and youth sports events, modern food environments are designed for convenience, not blood sugar health. The wrong choice is easy. The right choice feels inconvenient. We’ll explain: • Why stress makes these places harder to navigate • How “healthy” snack aisles can mislead you • Why free food often “costs” the most • And what to do about it without being extreme If you’ve ever found yourself somewhere and thought “There is NOTHING good for me here!” this episode is for you. If one of these locations hits home, send this episode to someone who needs it.

	#42- 4 Reasons Diabetes Is a Muscle Problem, Not Just a Blood Sugar Problem	20 févr. 2026	00:22:05
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Diabetes is usually framed as a blood sugar problem. But blood sugar is what we measure, not where the problem starts. In this episode, we explain four reasons diabetes is a muscle problem, not just a blood sugar problem, and why muscle plays a central role in glucose control and insulin resistance. We cover: Why muscle is the primary place glucose is stored How GLUT4 acts as the “door” that lets sugar into muscle…without insulin! How modern life reduces muscle’s ability to do its job Why muscle functions as metabolic insurance over time This isn’t about lifting heavy weights or following extreme programs. It’s about understanding how muscle supports blood sugar control and why building metabolic capacity matters. If managing blood sugar has felt frustrating or incomplete, this episode offers a clearer framework. We also mention getting ahold of our steady strengthening workout to start building your muscle!

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Most people already know what they should eat to improve their blood sugar. That’s not the problem. In this episode, we break down five reasons knowing what to eat doesn’t always translate into doing it, and why that’s not a character flaw. We cover: · How too many choices (the buffet effect) sabotage decisions · Why environment beats willpower · How stress hijacks the brain and drives quick-energy eating · The trap of comfort eating disguised as self-care · Why too many rules create paralysis instead of progress This is not about trying harder. It’s about fewer decisions, better defaults, and building a system that actually works. If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, I just don’t do it,” this episode is for you.

	#38 - The New Dietary Guidelines: What They Get Right and What Still Matters for Blood Sugar	23 janv. 2026	00:22:03
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans are out, and for the first time in decades, they’re pointing in a direction that actually supports metabolic health. In this episode, we break down what the guidelines finally get right for blood sugar and Type 2 diabetes, where they still fall short, and why guidelines alone don’t change health: implementation does. We cover: · Why “eat real food” is the biggest win in the new guidelines · How ultra-processed foods quietly drive insulin resistance · The underrated role of protein in blood sugar stability · The highest-ROI move for improving blood sugar (hint: stop drinking sugar) · And more! If you’re confused by the headlines, tired of nutrition dogma, or trying to improve blood sugar in the real world, this episode cuts through the noise with clarity and practicality. Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes? Grab your earbuds and listen in.

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Hi listeners! In today’s episode, we’re zooming out from blood sugar numbers and talking about two factors that quietly determine whether health changes actually stick. Most people are taught to manage diabetes by focusing harder on food rules, medications, and numbers. But without managing energy and expectations, even the best plan eventually falls apart. In this episode, we break down: Why going “all in” often leads to burnout instead of progress How misaligned expectations drain energy and motivation The difference between short-term intensity and long-term skill building Why slowing down is often the fastest path to better blood sugar and real freedom This conversation is about playing the long game — building habits that fit real life, not perfect weeks.

	#34 - Muscle Masterclass For Type 2 Reversal With Dr. Ben	26 déc. 2025	00:36:03
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d In this episode (and dare we say masterclass) of The Diabetes Remission Roadmap, Cory gets to interview our FIRST PODCAST GUEST in the show’s history (while Brian shovels snow in Ohio). Dr. Ben Bocchicchio is an exercise physiologist and fitness pioneer and he helps unpack why muscle is one of the most powerful tools for improving blood sugar and insulin resistance. Dr. Ben explains how muscle acts as a metabolic “sink” for glucose, allowing blood sugar to be absorbed and stored even without insulin. Building and activating muscle increases insulin sensitivity, improves glucose control, and can reduce reliance on medications, especially for people with type 2 diabetes. The conversation dives into Dr. Ben’s high-intensity, low-impact strength training approach, which uses short (12–15 minute), twice-weekly sessions designed to safely deplete muscle glycogen and activate the body’s natural energy systems. This method is adaptable to all fitness levels and challenges the idea that long workouts are necessary for metabolic health. Cory and Dr. Ben agrees: strategic strength training isn’t optional, it’s foundational for blood sugar control, diabetes remission, and long-term health. Key takeaways: Muscle is a primary driver of glucose disposal and insulin sensitivity You don’t need long workouts: intensity and intent matter more Proper strength training can improve blood sugar independent of insulin This approach is safe, scalable, and effective at any age or fitness level Physical activity and light cardio are great…but not enough for true blood sugar improvement Links Mentioned: Dr. Ben’s Website Dr. Ben’s book, 15 Minutes to Fitness: Dr. Ben’s 15 Minute HIIT with bands workout Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes?

	#33 - Type 2 Starts at 2: How Sugar Wires Our Kids’ Brains Earlier Than You Think	19 déc. 2025	00:23:28
Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d In today’s episode, we’re talking about something most parents have never been told — how early our relationship with sugar is actually formed. Long before children choose candy on their own, their brains are already being wired for sweetness. In fact, research shows taste preferences can begin in utero, and the modern food environment only accelerates that conditioning once kids are born. We’ll unpack: How early sugar exposure shapes taste preferences and cravings Why we’re seeing type 2 diabetes diagnosed at shockingly young ages (as young as 3) What this means for parents trying to do their best in a processed-food world Practical, realistic steps you can take without becoming extreme or obsessive This isn’t about blame or fear. It’s about awareness, stewardship, and giving your family a better foundation in a culture stacked against them. Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes?

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Most people with Type 2 are taught to “just control your portions.” But here’s the problem… tiny portions don’t fix big hunger. And they definitely don’t fix insulin resistance. In this episode, we break down why what you eat matters far more than how much you eat. When you choose foods with real satiety—protein-forward, fiber-rich, energizing foods—your appetite naturally calms down. Cravings fade. Blood sugar steadies. And portion control stops feeling like a daily fight. You’ll learn • why portion control fails most people • how satiety-per-calorie works in real life • how to build meals that leave you full, fueled, and in control • the simple shifts we teach clients to lower hunger and lower A1C at the same time If you’re tired of white-knuckling your meals, this episode will feel like freedom. You don’t need to eat less. You just need to eat smarter—and your body does the rest. 👉 Watch Now Link to Office Hours episode mentioned in show on gratitude: Here Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes?

But here’s where the debate starts…Brian pushes back. Because sugar is a problem… but it’s not the only problem. In this episode, we break down why the food industry wants you to blame fat, big pharma wants you to blame sugar, and why the truth sits somewhere in the messy middle.

You’ll learn: • Why sugar plays a role… but insulin resistance has deeper roots • How the “free snack culture” keeps you stuck in the cycle • Why blaming sugar alone keeps you dependent on meds — not free from them • The simple daily choices that actually pull you OUT of the diabetes trap If you want clarity… and you’re tired of the blame game… this episode gives you the real story in a way that finally makes sense.

Join the Type 2 Remission Room, our online podcast community: https://tinyurl.com/3a4ta86d Most people with Type 2 diabetes are stuck in patterns they know aren’t working — but can’t seem to break. They follow doctor’s orders, take the medications, and get their labs checked... yet still feel tired, frustrated, and dependent. In this episode, Brian breaks down why that happens — and how the illusion of control from medication keeps so many people trapped in the patient mindset. You’ll learn the key difference between the Patient Mindset (getting things done to you) and the Rebel Mindset (taking ownership and doing things for yourself). We’ll also talk about why some doctors push back when patients finally start taking charge — and how the right kind of guidance can act like rocket fuel for those ready to break free from the system. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still not getting healthier… this episode will show you how to escape the medication control mentality and finally build momentum that lasts.
