Un immense merci @ellefr je n’en reviens toujours pas ❤️ J’ai grandi en lisant le ELLE de ma maman toutes les semaines, et aujourd’hui en faire la couv c’est juste dingue. Merci et merci de me donner l’opportunité de partager qu’être une femme dans la science, c’est génial. En kiosques dès aujourd’hui. Par le merveilleux @royalgilbert Stylisme @chloedugast Maquillage @rika_bitton Rédactrice @juliadionelle - - I grew up reading my mom’s ELLE magazine every week, and today to be on the cover is hard to take in! I’m so thankful to be able to share my love of being a woman in science.

Angels. I’m SO excited. Introducing: Anti-Spike capsules. You take Anti-Spike before eating carbs or sugar, and it reduces their glucose spike by up to 40%. Same cake, up to 40% less spike. Same pasta, up to 40% less spike. Why did I make this ? Because for YEARS you’ve asked me if you could take a vinegar gummy instead of doing the vinegar hack (no, they’re full of sugar). You’ve asked me whether you could take a fiber pill instead of a veggie starter when you’re travelling (yes but you’d need to take 20 fiber pills!). You’ve asked me what is the best supplement to give to someone who needs to lower their glucose but doesn’t want to change what or how they eat at all. Some supplements on the market are total crap. Others are pretty good. But what I’ve created is the absolute best in the game. I’ve identified 4 plants that have existed forever, and that in the past few years have been show by scientists across the world to reduce glucose spikes. Over 25 clinical trials back them up, and I’ve assembled them into Anti-Spike Formula for you: mulberry leaf, lemon extract, cinnamon, antioxidants. It is the ULTIMATE new hack to add to your tool belt. For when you can’t do one of my food hacks or simply for when you want some help. Pre-order now on antispike.com Link in bio I ship in all of Europe, UK, USA, and Canada. And more countries coming soon.

This post is dedicated to teenage me (3rd slide for a photo 😂) who didn’t realize that it was her Nutella crepe at breakfast that made her feel super super tired all the time.

And I KNOW we’ve all been told to eat sugar and carbs in the morning (hello breakfast cereal) - but breakfast is the time where focusing on protein and fat is *actually* going to help your mitochondria produce yummy energy so you can get all your things done ❤️ that’s hack #1 : have a savoury breakfast. If you’re chronically fatigued, start there, then add all the other hacks (see last slide!)

Modern science meets ancient wisdom! I love seeing traditional food combinations reflecting a glucose hack. Here: clothes on carbs. Adding « clothes » (protein, fat, fiber) to our carbs or sugars is best to reduce their glucose spike. It slows down the speed of arrival of the glucose molecules into our bloodstream. Adding ham to melon is one such example of this. 👉 how many other traditional clothes on carbs combo can you name??

👉 So: oat milk is like pasta juice. A high starch milk that will lead to a glucose spike. If you feel tired or have lots of cravings, or have skin or hormonal issues, or are trying to manage diabetes or insulin resistance…. Oat milk will not help. ✅ switch to unsweetened nut milk, or full fat dairy 🔥 and if you LOVE oat milk, that’s ok, keep drinking it but just know it’s for pleasure, not for health. And help reduce the spike by drinking it after a meal instead of on an empty stomach, moving your body after, or having your daily Anti-Spike before it (link in bio for Anti-Spike)

The BEST way to start a meal? Veggies & Vinegar baby ❤️❤️❤️ if you have a salad, make sure to add vinegar to the dressing - that way you get two benefits in one: the fiber from the veggies, PLUS the acetic acid from the vinegar. Your veggie starter can be any veggie (salad or otherwise), and the vinegar can be any vinegar except very syrupy/thick balsamic (as it contains sugar so that defeats the purpose!)

When we blend veggies (or fruit) we pulverize the fiber particles in them. The fiber is still there, but it’s been broken into lots of tiny pieces. Therefore, it is less effective at protecting your glucose levels. 👉 it’s still better to eat blended vegetables than to not eat any vegetables at all 👉 chewing with our teeth does not have the same impact on fiber - because our teeth are not as powerful as metal blades of a blender going thousands of turns per minute.

❌ Warning: granola does NOT mean automatically good for you. Granola is usually just starches and sugars, with dried fruit (more sugar). I know they often sound like they are good for you on a packaging, but they can have the same impact as good old breakfast cereal, meaning, a glucose spike. 👉 instead, if you love granola, make your own based on nuts and seeds, don’t add sugar, and eat it with some greek yogurt for example. This will lead to a much much smaller glucose spike, and better health. ❤️

Calories aren’t the whole story 🤔 Comment ‘JESSIE’ and I’ll DM you the link for the full episode. 💛

Le jus d’orange c’est très mauvais pour la santé, la biochimiste de formation, Jessie Inchauspé alias « Glucose Goddess » vous explique pourquoi 🍊

[en français plus bas] ✨ Last week was intense. I had the great honor of being invited on @qofficiel , a show that I’ve loved for a very long time. I was so humbled and happy to be there. And also wearing @gucci 🥹❤️ Career highlight. Thank you to the team for welcoming me. Last week was also one of the most personally/emotionally challenging weeks I had to go through, ever - for reasons that I’ll share with you guys when I’m ready. A big thank you to the mac&cheese that I ate after the TV show (last slide) + the veggie starter next to it of course. - ✨ La semaine dernière a été intense. J’ai eu le grand honneur d’être invitée sur @qofficiel , une émission que j’adore depuis très longtemps. J’étais tellement reconnaissante et heureuse d’être là. Et habillée en @gucci 🥹❤️ Un moment marquant dans ma carrière. Merci à l’équipe de m’avoir accueillie. Et la semaine dernière a également été l’une des plus difficiles sur le plan personnel/émotionnel que j’ai jamais eues à traverser - pour des raisons que je partagerai avec vous quand je serai prête. Un grand merci au mac&cheese que j’ai mangé après l’émission (dernière image) + l’entrée a base de légumes à côté, bien sûr.
