Sugar – the Negative Impact on Heart Health TSSP158

June 23, 2021

Sugar is proven to cause issues with blood sugar levels, but how can sugar negatively impact the heart? Heart health and blood sugar balance don’t seem to be related at all. Truth is - they are connected! And that’s what this Episode is all about… the connection between sugar and heart health issues.

The connection between sugar and heart health is not obvious or easy to see at a glance. So Cathy takes you on a journey into how some hormones, like insulin, and body systems work. Along the way, you’ll discover how sugar negatively affects the heart in 3 different ways: insulin resistance, cholesterol, and inflammation. Then Cathy will tell you about 5 specific foods (plant based) that are beneficial for heart health. Spoiler alert: you’ll also hear some interesting facts about one of the many jobs your liver does.
