Sugar isn’t the enemy — unstable blood sugar is.

In this episode you’ll discover:

✔ Where sugar is hiding in everyday foods

✔ Why sugar hits harder after 50 (especially during peri- and post-menopause)

✔ How insulin, hormones, and energy are connected

✔ The truth about artificial sweeteners

✔ Smarter sweetener and carb choices for stable energy

As we age, changes in oestrogen, muscle mass, and insulin sensitivity make blood sugar regulation more challenging. This is why the same foods you tolerated at 30 can now lead to energy crashes, belly fat, and cravings. You’ll also learn what the World Health Organisation recommends for daily sugar intake — and why drinks are the biggest hidden sugar trap.

This is not about cutting sugar completely. It’s about learning how to fuel smart, support your metabolism, and create stable energy and sustainable weight after 50.
