159: Foods you aren't bolusing for (but probably should be)

About This Episode

A viral post about foods people never bolus for sparked this episode. Get ready to find out the common food beliefs that could be leaving you with blood sugars that feel unpredictable, confusing, and exhausting. I'm unpacking why blanket statements about food and insulin don’t work — and how statements like “it’s under 15grams of carbs so it doesn’t count” or “protein and fats are free foods” can quietly mess with your blood sugars over time.
