About this audiobook
Improve all areas of your health from your sleep, cravings, mood, energy, skin, weight, and even slow down aging, with “simple and accessible science-based hacks” (Michael Mosley, MD, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Fast Diet) to manage your blood sugar levels while still eating the foods you love.
Glucose, or blood sugar, is a tiny molecule in our body that has a huge impact on our health. It enters our bloodstream through the starchy or sweet foods we eat. Ninety percent of us suffer from too much glucose in our system—and most of us don’t know it.
The symptoms? Cravings, fatigue, infertility, hormonal issues, acne, wrinkles. And over time, the development of conditions like type 2 diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome, cancer, dementia, and heart disease.
Drawing on cutting-edge science and her own pioneering research, biochemist Jessie Inchauspé offers ten simple, surprising hacks to help you balance your glucose levels and reverse your symptoms—without going on a diet or giving up the foods you love. For example:
-What small change to your breakfast will unlock energy and cut your cravings
-How eating foods in the right order will make you lose weight effortlessly
-What secret ingredient will allow you to eat dessert and still go into fat-burning mode
Both entertaining, informative, and packed with the latest scientific data, this book presents a new way to think about better health. Glucose Revolution is chock-full of tips that can drastically and immediately improve your life, whatever your dietary preferences.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Totally eye-opening. This book has brought a new perspective to my life and my nutrition.
Glucose has been an interesting topic to me, but one that I have never dedicated the time to understand. I really have a passion for understanding how our bodies and nutrition work, and this book gives so much valuable information and a lot of scientific answers to a topic that definitely doesn't get the importance it should. A must read. I enjoyed the whole book, which was also very easy to listen to, even being so scientifically packed.
Although I consider i have a very fit and mostly healthy diet, and thank God I also love to exercise, the insights in this book have shed light on why my body works the way it does. I maintain a low carb diet with a lot of protein and veggies, but in the weekends I have more carbs and now I understand why I feel sleepy on some of those days and why a low carb diet works that wonderful.2 people found this helpful

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5OMG! Firstly. Sorry for my bad English
I fine the author from some health podcast and come to this book, and tbh i was skeptical at first(but take interest in the topic bc I often feel like hang over the next day after eating a big sugar) and i try vinegar and eat fiber first ( I already do fasting and overall a healthy person) but it just past days 5 and i come to write this review bc it actually work, my energy is rise up, less sleepy and my mood get better, i’m a bit shock tbh lol, I don’t have much health problems at first so I don’t expect to see any fast results but i am wrong, before i feel good and fine but now i feel even better, recommend u to try it tho, hope it work on u :) - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Amazing, the journey in the lowcarb IF lifestyle has helped me a lot.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Mind blowing! A must read , that’s all I can say
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was a wonderful book worth the read. The author did a fabulous job explaining biological and scientific facts in simple and easy to understand ways and terms. The four hacks that she suggests are very useful and I think they would be easy to do once you get into the habits of doing them or incorporating them into your schedule. I’m definitely going to give it a try. I’m also interested in checking out her latest book on practical ways to implement the hacks that she talked about in this book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I had awful sugar cravings every afternoon…they’re gone!! Thank you!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very informative. Simplified science for everyone to understand. Worth a read/listen.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book. Lots of very helpful information. I wound def recommend.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It was informative but not confusing with scientific jargon. Love it!
