To lower insulin levels: Maintain a healthy diet and avoid ultra-processed foods full of sugars. Reducing carbohydrate intake, especially simple carbohydrates, helps to lower insulin levels.
Regular exercise: can help increase insulin sensitivity and as a result your cells can better utilise available glucose. Losing weight: can reduce the risk of diabetes and help maintain healthy blood sugar levels. Increasing the amount of fibre in the diet: this will encourage a gradual and more progressive increase in blood sugar.
Glycaemic index: Select foods with a low glycaemic index. Make sure you get adequate rest: since growth hormone is produced during sleep. Not getting enough sleep increases the production of cortisol, a stress hormone involved in sugar regulation.
