“It’s just part of getting older.”If I had a dollar for every time a woman over 50 was told that… I could fill a whole clinic with women who deserve better answers.
You wake up tired, even after a full night’s sleep.
Your weight feels harder to manage, especially around the belly.

Insulin resistance.
🧬 What Is Insulin Resistance?
Insulin resistance happens when your body stops responding properly to insulin — the hormone that helps your cells absorb glucose (sugar) from your bloodstream.
When your body becomes resistant, glucose builds up in your blood. Over time, this can lead to prediabetes, Type 2 diabetes, weight gain, fatigue, inflammation, and even brain fog or mood swings.
But here’s the part most people aren’t told:
👉 Insulin resistance is often reversible.
👉 It’s not “just aging.”
👉 And it’s not your fault.

- Cravings
- Brain fog
- Trouble losing weight
- Sleep disruption

As a former hospice nurse, I saw the end stages of what happens when metabolic health is ignored. But I also believe — with my whole heart — that it doesn’t have to be this way.
