The link between insulin resistance and weight loss.

🌾 1. It Slows Glucose Absorption
Soluble fibre can slow digestion and the absorption of glucose, helping reduce how quickly blood sugar rises after eating.

🍞 2. It Means Less Digestible Carbohydrate
Fibre is a carbohydrate, but unlike starches and sugars, most fibre isn’t broken down into glucose — so higher-fibre foods can deliver less glucose for the same amount of total carbohydrate.

🦠 3. It Supports Your Gut Microbiome
Certain fibres feed beneficial gut bacteria, producing short-chain fatty acids such as butyrate, which are linked with better metabolic health and insulin sensitivity.

💡 The Bottom Line
More fibre can mean slower glucose absorption, less digestible carbohydrate and better metabolic health — helping support more stable blood sugar.

Does Vegemite spike your blood glucose? 🇦🇺

We put the Aussie classic through the GlucoseScan app to find out.

Turns out, there’s very little carbohydrate in a typical serve — giving it a GlucoseScan Food Score of 100.

🍞 1. Carbs Become Glucose
Carbohydrates — including starches and sugars — are digested and absorbed largely as glucose, which enters your bloodstream.

💉 2. Insulin Moves Glucose Into Cells
Insulin helps your muscle, fat and other cells take up and use glucose, helping bring blood glucose back down.

⚠️ 3. Insulin Resistance Changes This
In type 2 diabetes, cells don’t respond to insulin as effectively, so more glucose can remain in the bloodstream.

📈 4. More Carbs = More Glucose to Manage
The amount of digestible carbohydrate in a meal is a major factor influencing the rise in blood glucose after eating.

🥗 5. Not All Carb Meals Act the Same
Fibre, protein, fat, food processing and portion size can all change how quickly and how much blood glucose rises.

💡 The Bottom Line
Carbs aren’t “bad” — but with diabetes, the amount and type of carbohydrate you eat can make a big difference to blood glucose control.

🩸 1. Type 2 Diabetes
Insulin resistance means glucose isn’t being used efficiently by your cells, causing glucose to build up in the blood. Over time, this can progress to type 2 diabetes.

🥚 2. PCOS/PMOS
Insulin resistance causes higher insulin levels, which can increase androgen production and contribute to the hormonal changes seen in PCOS.

🫀 3. Fatty Liver
Insulin resistance promotes the conversion and storage of excess energy as fat in the liver, contributing to fatty liver disease.

🧠 4. Dementia
Insulin resistance is associated with impaired brain glucose metabolism and a higher risk of cognitive decline and dementia.

⚖️ 5. Obesity
Insulin resistance can lead to higher insulin levels, particularly after eating carbohydrates. Insulin suppresses fat breakdown, which can contribute to increased fat storage and make weight loss more difficult.
