Nutritionist Explains Why You Might Not Be Losing Weight: The Role of Glucose and Insulin

Madrid, Spain – A recent video by nutritionist 'blancanutri' sheds light on common reasons individuals struggle with weight loss, emphasizing the critical role of glucose regulation and insulin in the body's metabolic processes. According to the expert, an excess intake of sugars, whether from processed foods or even natural sources like fruit juices, can lead to a deregulation of glucose levels. This, in turn, causes an overproduction of insulin, a hormone that, when elevated, can hinder the body's ability to burn fat. The nutritionist explained that this imbalance often manifests as persistent cravings for carbohydrates, particularly sweets, and a feeling of constant fatigue, even after adequate sleep. She also noted a connection between poor glucose regulation and conditions such as hypertension. "When you consume sugar, you get an initial energy boost, but then you experience a crash, feeling weak and hungry again," she stated. The video suggests that many people might be consuming insufficient protein and healthy fats, which are crucial for sustained satiety and better glucose control. The nutritionist encourages viewers experiencing these symptoms to assess their dietary habits and consider professional guidance to optimize their nutrition for better health and weight management.
