Could It Start Years Before Prediabetes? Could insulin resistance begin years before you're ever told you have prediabetes? Many people believe insulin resistance and prediabetes are the same thing—but they're not. In this episode, Registered Nurse and Metabolic Health Educator TaShawn Davis, RN, explains what insulin resistance is, why it matters, and why understanding your body may be one of the most important steps you can take toward improving your metabolic health. You'll also hear the story of a woman who thought feeling tired, forgetful, and \"slower\" was simply part of getting older—until one conversation changed her perspective. Whether you're living with prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, obesity, fatty liver, PCOS, or you're simply trying to understand your lab work, this episode will help you ask better questions and become a more informed partner in your healthcare. In This Episode ✔ What insulin resistance actually is ✔ Why blood sugar isn't the whole story ✔ The difference between insulin resistance, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes ✔ Why many people may have insulin resistance before their blood sugar becomes abnormal ✔ Why understanding your body gives you hope—not fear ✔ Questions to discuss with your healthcare provider Key Takeaways • Insulin does much more than regulate blood sugar. • Insulin resistance may develop before blood sugar reaches the diagnostic range for prediabetes or diabetes. • Prediabetes and diabetes are based on diagnostic thresholds, but the underlying metabolic changes may begin earlier. • Education empowers you to make informed decisions alongside your healthcare team. • Understanding your body is one of the greatest investments you can make in your future health. 🎉 Join Me in Person!
