Descripción

The holidays are meant to be joyful—but for many people, they come with stress, weight gain, blood sugar spikes, and a January health wake-up call. In this episode, host Megan McClenahan welcomes back Dr. Brian from Arizona Metabolic Health to talk about how to enjoy the holiday season without sacrificing your metabolic health. Together, they dive into the “holiday blood sugar curve,” why diabetes diagnoses spike after Thanksgiving and Christmas, and how stress, alcohol, poor sleep, and dehydration quietly derail our health. Dr. Brian shares real-world clinical insights on managing blood sugar, avoiding holiday overeating, navigating alcohol’s impact on metabolism, and why stress alone can raise glucose levels—even without sugar. #Arizona #metabolichealth #diabetes #holidays
