Hi listeners!

This week we tackle the dreaded “F” word keeping your blood sugar high.

And yes, it is EXACTLY what you think it is: Friction (that’s what you were thinking, right?)

We dive into the importance of putting more friction on the habits that keep your blood sugar high, while removing the friction on the habits that will help bring your blood sugar down…for good!

From combining TV watching with exercise, hiding away those sweet and salty snacks, and getting your gym clothes out the night before, this episode is going to change the way you think about…changing your habits.

Plus, we offer up a chance for the two of us to do an audit of YOUR habits on a future episode!

This episode is sure to turn the “F” word in your favor for better blood sugar.

Hi listeners!

In today’s episode, we’re zooming out from blood sugar numbers and talking about two factors that quietly determine whether health changes actually stick.

Most people are taught to manage diabetes by focusing harder on food rules, medications, and numbers. But without managing energy and expectations, even the best plan eventually falls apart.

In this episode, we break down:

• Why going “all in” often leads to burnout instead of progress
• How misaligned expectations drain energy and motivation
• The difference between short-term intensity and long-term skill building
• Why slowing down is often the fastest path to better blood sugar and real freedom

This conversation is about playing the long game — building habits that fit real life, not perfect weeks.

In this episode (and dare we say masterclass) of The Diabetes Remission Roadmap, Cory gets to interview our FIRST PODCAST GUEST in the show’s history (while Brian shovels snow in Ohio). Dr. Ben Bocchicchio is an exercise physiologist and fitness pioneer and he helps unpack why muscle is one of the most powerful tools for improving blood sugar and insulin resistance.

Dr. Ben explains how muscle acts as a metabolic “sink” for glucose, allowing blood sugar to be absorbed and stored even without insulin. Building and activating muscle increases insulin sensitivity, improves glucose control, and can reduce reliance on medications, especially for people with type 2 diabetes.

The conversation dives into Dr. Ben’s high-intensity, low-impact strength training approach, which uses short (12–15 minute), twice-weekly sessions designed to safely deplete muscle glycogen and activate the body’s natural energy systems. This method is adaptable to all fitness levels and challenges the idea that long workouts are necessary for metabolic health.

Cory and Dr. Ben agrees: strategic strength training isn’t optional, it’s foundational for blood sugar control, diabetes remission, and long-term health.

Key takeaways:

• Muscle is a primary driver of glucose disposal and insulin sensitivity
• You don’t need long workouts: intensity and intent matter more
• Proper strength training can improve blood sugar independent of insulin
• This approach is safe, scalable, and effective at any age or fitness level
• Physical activity and light cardio are great…but not enough for true blood sugar improvement

Hi listeners!
In today’s episode, we’re talking about something most parents have never been told — how early our relationship with sugar is actually formed.

Long before children choose candy on their own, their brains are already being wired for sweetness. In fact, research shows taste preferences can begin in utero, and the modern food environment only accelerates that conditioning once kids are born.

We’ll unpack:

• How early sugar exposure shapes taste preferences and cravings
• Why we’re seeing type 2 diabetes diagnosed at shockingly young ages (as young as 3)
• What this means for parents trying to do their best in a processed-food world
• Practical, realistic steps you can take without becoming extreme or obsessive

This isn’t about blame or fear. It’s about awareness, stewardship, and giving your family a better foundation in a culture stacked against them.

• The Dawn Effect why your morning blood sugar jumps even when you “did everything right” the night before
• CGM Malfunctions what’s normal, what’s user error, and what actually matters for decision-making
• Strength vs Pilates can Pilates count as enough… or do you truly need muscle-building work to fix insulin resistance?

If you’re tired of guessing, second-guessing, and getting lost in conflicting advice, this episode gives you simple clarity so you can keep moving toward a med-free healthy A1c with confidence.

Most people with Type 2 are taught to “just control your portions.”
But here’s the problem… tiny portions don’t fix big hunger.
And they definitely don’t fix insulin resistance.

In this episode, we break down why what you eat matters far more than how much you eat. When you choose foods with real satiety—protein-forward, fiber-rich, energizing foods—your appetite naturally calms down. Cravings fade. Blood sugar steadies. And portion control stops feeling like a daily fight.

You’ll learn
• why portion control fails most people
• how satiety-per-calorie works in real life
• how to build meals that leave you full, fueled, and in control
• the simple shifts we teach clients to lower hunger and lower A1C at the same time

If you’re tired of white-knuckling your meals, this episode will feel like freedom. You don’t need to eat less. You just need to eat smarter—and your body does the rest.

Want help applying these shifts to your own plan? Book a Diabetes Clarity Call and let’s build a path that fits your life.

Ever feel like every food decision comes with a side of confusion?

In this rapid-fire episode, Brian and Cory answer listener questions about three things that trip up almost everyone with Type 2:

• Whole wheat vs white pasta and whether it actually matters for your blood sugar
• Hidden sugars in everyday foods that pretend to be “healthy”
• Measuring food and whether it’s helpful… or just another thing to stress about

If you’ve ever stared at a label, second-guessed a meal, or wondered why every nutrition rule seems to contradict the last one, this episode brings the clarity you’ve been craving.

We break it down in plain language so you can make choices that actually move you toward normal blood sugar, confidence, and freedom — not more confusion.

Simple.
Honest.
Actionable.
