Diabetes Decoded: Root Causes, Functional Tests, and Real Solutions
Manage episode 517520003 series 3570302
In this episode of the K6 Wellness Revolution Podcast, we’re cutting through the noise around diabetes and getting to the root of what’s really driving blood sugar imbalances. This isn’t just about A1C or fasting glucose—it’s about restoring true metabolic flexibility so you can feel better, think clearer, and perform at your best.
We’ll walk you through the often-missed connections between insulin resistance and inflammation, poor sleep, stress, toxic exposures, mitochondrial dysfunction, gut health, and even parasite load. You’ll hear why conventional medicine often falls short for chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes—and how a functional, root-cause approach can change the game.
We also talk testing—what labs really matter when it comes to understanding your metabolic health (hint: it’s not just glucose and cholesterol), and how tools like fasting insulin, CGMs, lipid particle testing, and microbiome analysis can give you answers that finally make sense.
From the food on your plate to the sleep you’re missing, the supplements you’re choosing, and the habits you’re building, this episode gives you a clear and compassionate guide for preventing or reversing diabetes naturally. You’ll even hear why medications like semaglutide aren’t magic bullets unless you’ve built a solid foundation underneath them.
If you’ve been told that diabetes is inevitable, irreversible, or just something to manage, this episode will remind you that your body is capable of healing—when given the right support.
