Consume healthy fats

Adding high-quality natural fats into your diet may help in the reduction of insulin resistance and hunger. MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides) are a type of fat that is less likely to be stored in fat tissue and more likely to be taken up directly by your liver for immediate use as energy, resulting in greater calorie burning.

MCTs also have a lower risk of causing insulin resistance. Furthermore, healthy fats like omega-3s reduce inflammation and pro-inflammatory markers, which helps to improve insulin sensitivity. Omega-3s may also prevent cortisol levels from rising during periods of chronic stress, according to research. Pure MCT oil, avocados, almonds, peanuts, macadamia nuts, hazelnuts, fatty fish, and olive and coconut oils all contain these beneficial fats.
