Jessie Inchospe caused a sensation with her diet, described in her book about the glucose revolution, which became a hit around the world. It has sold millions of copies to date.
Forget the pancakes in the morning, the croissant with jam, the oatmeal, the orange juice, the dried fruit. Learn to eat right so you don’t have to give up your favorite foods. Don’t replace a meal with something sweet, eat dessert last and then go for a walk.
At the heart of the concept of Inshospe (in Storytel you will also meet her as Inchauspe) is the control of blood sugar levels. The goal – to be physically and mentally healthy.
When he was 19, Jesse Inshoespe suffered a serious accident – he jumped from a waterfall and broke his spine. Enormous health problems follow. Physically, she recovers quickly, but her psyche is ruined. Suffers from depression, anxiety and dissociation – a condition in which the connection between feelings and memories and the identity of the person is broken. This is also the moment when Jessie begins to question how her body and mind work.
Dropped his studies at “King’s College” in London, where he studied mathematics, and moved to the United States. There he earned a master’s degree in biochemistry from Georgetown University, and then worked for a biotech company in Silicon Valley.
In 2018, she participated in a project that enabled her to monitor her own blood sugar levels. He does it with a blood glucose meter, the kind that people with diabetes wear.
One of the first things she notices is that her blood sugar curve and her psychological state are connected.
On days when her blood sugar is balanced, she feels significantly better than on days with lots of sugar spikes.
In an interview with “Süddeide Zeitung”, the Frenchwoman says that this observation changed her life. She understands that she can influence her psyche through the way she eats. Then he delved into the subject and turned it into his profession.
A few spikes in glucose per day is perfectly normal, says Inshospe. It’s bad when they become too much, and the modern way of eating leads to exactly that. The result is more inflammation in the body, which in turn is the root cause of many of the chronic diseases that modern man suffers from.
Glucose spikes lead to the release of insulin. Too much insulin in the body can cause diabetes.
And third, there’s a process called glycation, which is kind of synonymous with aging. Simply put, the more spikes in glucose we experience, the faster we age physically.
To make this knowledge understandable and accessible to the general public, Jesse Inshospe formulated ten tricks that he shares with his 4.5 million followers on Instagram.
Breakfast should be hearty, but not sweet. Because if the first meal leads to a big spike in glucose right away, you’ll feel bad all day, says the Frenchwoman. You’ll be hungry again at ten o’clock, tired at lunch, tired in the afternoon – your body will be craving all day to regain its morning blood sugar high.
If people want to feel less sleepy during the day, they shouldn’t eat a jam slice. Or at least before it, it is good for them to eat something like an omelette, yogurt with nuts.
Jesse Inshospe doesn’t make his followers give up everything they love, he just teaches them how to eat right.
Another trick she suggests is to always start with vegetables. The reason – they contain fiber. And when we eat fiber first, it reduces the glucose spike from everything we eat afterward.
Fiber slows stomach emptying and sugars from carbohydrates don’t reach the bloodstream as quickly.
According to her, oatmeal is not the best choice for breakfast, but if you are very fond of it, at least let it be oatmeal and definitely combine it with something that slows down the absorption of sugars – walnuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds, protein powder, yogurt or egg beforehand.
The nail in the program of Inshospe however, it is the vinegar. She recommends drinking one tablespoon in water before a main meal.
According to her, what makes vinegar so important is acetic acid (Acidum aceticum). Thanks to it, the conversion of starch into glucose is slowed down. Taken before a meal, one tablespoon of vinegar can reduce the glucose spike from anything eaten afterward by up to 30 percent. This applies to any type of vinegar except sweet balsamic.
By the way, you don’t have to drink the vinegar—it works the same way when it’s part of a salad dressing, says Jesse Inshoespe.
According to her, the first thing you’ll notice if you follow her advice is that you have less of a sweet tooth. And that you feel less hungry in general. You are also more energetic.
The focus of this method is on bringing the body into balance, not on losing weight. Still, if you keep your blood sugar levels free of extreme spikes, you’ll have less appetite, feel less hungry, and your body will release less insulin. And insulin prevents fat loss. So when you have less insulin in your body, it can burn more fat.
Another trick from the Frenchwoman’s program is movement after eating.
Muscles need energy to contract. When we use our muscles after eating, we also use up some of the glucose we consumed. This results in a lower peak. We don’t have to leave the house and walk around the block. We can just run a vacuum cleaner, put something in order, dance.
To those who are convinced that the order of eating doesn’t matter because everything goes in the stomach, Jesse Inshoespe answers – “anyone who says that is just lazy”.
What you eat releases specific molecules that interact with the digestive system and enzymes, says the French woman. According to her, the ideal order is fiber first, then protein and fat, and finally sugar and starch. If you don’t want to run out of sweets, it’s best to have it for dessert. Much better than having it as a snack between meals.
