If you’re dealing with energy crashes, cravings, or stubborn inflammation—your blood sugar might be driving more than you think. Comment LISTEN for the full interview.

Today’s episode on the BeingBrigid Show is a huge interview! I sat down with one of the top 100 scientists in the world, Dr. Tim Spector (tim.spector), whose research has greatly impacted my approach to nutrition. 

Dr. Tim Spector is the co-founder of ZOE (zoe) and one of the top researchers in nutrition, blood sugar, inflammation and the gut microbiome. 

He explains how blood sugar spikes don’t just affect energy. They can directly trigger inflammation through your gut and manifest as other symptoms in the brain. 

Here’s what he shared:
+How your gut microbiome influences blood sugar responses
+Why spikes and crashes lead to cravings, fatigue, and mood swings
+The connection between blood sugar, inflammation, and long-term health
+Why focusing only on calories misses the bigger picture
+How improving gut health can stabilize energy and metabolism

If you’ve been doing “everything right” but still feel off. He will explain the exact research behind this. 

💬 Comment LISTEN and I’ll DM you the full episode!
