The Good Gluten Free Grub Podcast

Navigating life with type 1 diabetes can feel like an uphill battle, but Dr. Nikki's story sheds light on a path toward understanding and balance. In this episode of the Good Gluten Free Grub Podcast, Dr. Nikki, a holistic health expert and type 1 diabetic, shares her transformative journey from diagnosis to self-discovery.Determined to regain control, Dr. Nikki enrolled in a PhD program focusing on holistic health and nutrition. Through her studies, she discovered that high levels of fat in one’s diet could lead to insulin resistance—an insight that changed her approach to food entirely.  "I could eat 10 pieces of fruit every day with 70% less insulin needs when I lowered my fat to less than 10%." This revelation allowed her to embrace a diet rich in fruits while managing her diabetes more effectively.Check out Conscious Kitchen in Austin, Tx and follow Dr. Nikki on Instagram here:https://consciouskitchenatx.com/aboutIG: https://www.instagram.com/drnikkisiso/https://www.instagram.com/consciouskitchenatx/
