Minimalist Moms Podcast | Purposeful Life & Parenting Tips What Sugar is REALLY Doing to Women - Especially During Pregnancy | Jesse Inschuppe (Bonus Episode)
Today on the podcast, I’m speaking with biochemist and bestselling author Jessie Inchauspé, known to many online as the Glucose Goddess. Jessie has helped millions better understand blood sugar and metabolic health, and she’s back with a new book, 9 Months That Count Forever, which explores how nutrition during pregnancy can shape a child’s long-term health.
In our conversation, Jessie explains how what happens in the womb can influence a baby’s future through epigenetics - essentially switches on our DNA that are affected by the environment during pregnancy.
And even if you’re not pregnant or planning to become pregnant, there’s still so much in this conversation for you. Many of the principles Jessie shares about blood sugar balance, cravings, energy, and metabolic health apply to women in every stage of life.
It’s a fascinating conversation that really reframes the way we think about food, health, and the powerful window pregnancy offers for shaping lifelong well-being.
