Diabetes educator Dr. Ruchita Mehta shared a case study of a patient who, after a decade of struggling with insulin resistance, saw significant improvements in just one month by making three key lifestyle changes. These changes included starting the day with a high-protein, low-glycemic index breakfast; balancing every meal with more healthy fats and fiber while reducing the sugar load; and prioritizing stress and sleep management. Consultant dietitian Kanikka Malhotra validates this approach, affirming that a personalized, compassionate strategy focused on a high-protein breakfast and balanced meals can effectively stabilize blood sugar, reduce cravings, and improve insulin sensitivity. Both experts emphasize that while initial improvements in energy and weight can be seen quickly, reversing insulin resistance is a long-term process that requires sustainable lifestyle shifts and addressing often-overlooked factors like stress and sleep to achieve lasting health benefits without relying solely on medication or harsh diets.
