Re: 4/4 - Brain Fog

Blood test wise they all seem relatively OK, insulin resistance is good, no risk of diabetes (except genetically) and low CRP. Jess, how do you know you have no risk of diabetes? Because of the IR?

Re: 4/4 - Brain Fog

Hi Jess from a 4/4 who is old enough to be your mother and remembers lots of days in my 30's of feeling like I was exhausted--mostly in retrospect because I WAS exhausted.
