In this episode, Kylie interviews a viral TikTok and Instagram influencer, Emily Cornelius, a registered dietician, focused on increasing awareness and spreading information about a diagnosis that 1 in 3 women may have – insulin resistance. Her platforms are both informative, insightful and easy to follow – particularly for a topic that is so complex. In this episode, Emily covers the nuances of insulin resistance, how to test at home, common myths and misconceptions about insulin resistance, the waist to height ratio that can provide insight into a potential diagnosis, and how to work with her. She also discusses the importance that hormones – like insulin – play in balancing blood sugar, her viral Starbuck’s hacks to order your favorites while decreasing the sugar intake dramatically, and potential hormone imbalances that may impact you. Emily also shared with Kylie Says listeners a new program she’s getting ready to launch – and you’ll be able to hear about it here first. If you’ve ever struggled with fatigue, weight gain, an increase in belly fat, unstable blood sugar and constant hunger – this episode will be for you.
