63. Book Talks: Glucose & Goodbyes on The Well Drop Podcast

Wondering where to find more information about the glucose method of eating? Tune into this Mini Drop episode! 

In today's episode of the Well Drop Podcast, we delve into a few books we love. We discuss "The Glucose Goddess Method" by a French biochemist which provides a 4-week guide on how different foods can affect one's glucose levels and offers tips on the best order to consume foods to prevent glucose spikes.

Dena discusses reading "The Collected Regrets of Clover" by Mikki Brammer, a fictional book exploring themes around death and finding peace with it being a natural part of the life cycle. We exchange personal perspectives on death, with Dena expressing initial fears due to having young children but feeling more at peace with the idea of passing away in old age. We also highlight practical advice like eating vegetables first, followed by protein and then carbs to better regulate glucose levels. We discuss applying these principles with our children to instill healthy eating habits early on. 

Overall, the episode covers two contrasting books - one offering wellness wisdom on glucose management, and the other a fictional narrative prompting reflection on death and living life fully.
