No meat, poultry or seafood, but this vegetarian broccoli pesto pasta is still protein-rich, delivering a near-perfect 24g per serving. It is a an excellent source of fibre and unsaturated fatty acids too!

And best of all, with an estimated glycaemic load of 12.2, this won’t spike your blood sugars and will give you steady energy release until your next meal.

You can get the recipe from my website. Tap the link in my stories or paste this link https://bit.ly/3rvZk8j in your browser.

Insulin resistance means that your body doesn’t

Insulin resistance means that your body doesn’t respond normally to insulin in the blood - it is insensitive or ‘partially deaf’ to insulin.

Besides diabetes, insulin resistance can lead to poor metabolic health and heart disease.

You may have insulin resistance if you have two or more of the following:
1 | High waist circumference (>80cm for women and 94cm for men)
2 | High blood pressure
3 | High triglycerides
4 | Pre-diabetes
5 | High uric acid levels in your blood

You may also have insulin resistance if you’re at a normal weight but have a high waist circumference.

The good news is that you can reverse insulin resistance and pre-diabetes with a healthy lifestyle. And yes, we all know what a healthy lifestyle entails, but we also know it is challenging to implement.

P.S. If you’re ready to learn how to eat a sustainable healthy diet to reverse insulin resistance and pre-diabetes, click on the link in my bio @drsomiigbene to learn how I can support you.

You may think you need to skip meals to lose and maintain a healthy weight.

But what you forget is that skipping meals can slow your metabolism and make you more likely to overeat when you eventually eat. And even if you can control the amount of food you eat and lose weight, that strategy (skipping meals) will only work short-term and you’ll eventually go back to what you’re used to and regain the weight.

👉🏾Skipping meals may work for short-term weight loss but it FAILS for long-term weight maintenance.

If you’ve tried skipping meals for weight loss, how long did it work for you?

P.S. If you’re ready to stop skipping meals and start eating enough to lose weight and maintain a healthy weight long-term click on the link in my bio👉🏾 @drsomiigbene to learn how I can support you.
