Top Takeaways: Type 2 Diabetes is often reversible with lifestyle changes alone. Post-meal walking is one of the most underrated blood sugar hacks. Eat your veggies first, then protein, then carbs to flatten glucose spikes. Berberine is a potent, natural supplement—just take it with meals. Metformin & GLP-1 drugs have a place, but aren’t the first line of defense. Muscle is your metabolic engine—resistance training increases glucose storage. Affordable nutrition is possible: frozen veggies + bulk ground beef = win.
