MUSCLE MASS MATTERS! especially if you're goal is blood sugar control.

Why Muscle Mass Matters for Blood Sugar Control:
-- Muscle is the largest insulin‑sensitive tissue in the body.
Research shows that skeletal muscle plays a major role in glucose metabolism and whole‑body insulin sensitivity.

-- More muscle = better glucose uptake.
When you have more lean muscle, your body can move glucose out of the bloodstream more efficiently, helping keep blood sugar in range.

-- Low muscle mass increases diabetes risk.
Studies show that reduced muscle mass and strength are linked to higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes and poorer insulin sensitivity over time.

-- Strength training improves insulin sensitivity—even WITHOUT weight loss.

Exercise that builds muscle improves how your body responds to insulin and helps stabilize blood sugar throughout the day.

For me, disordered eating during the holidays looked like skipping meals to “save” calories, making sure to burn extra calories, constant weigh-checks and body checks for any changes… and the never-ending guilt around my food choices.

If you struggle with these same diet-mentality thoughts, let’s chat. You’re not alone, and support can make the holidays feel less stressful.
