#23 - The Hidden Math Behind Reversing Type 2 Diabetes

In this solo episode, Cory pulls back the curtain on what really drives diabetes reversal — and it’s not the crash diets or miracle meds you’ve been sold. It’s the hidden math of daily choices. Just like compound interest, every decision adds up. A skipped walk here, an extra soda there, or a workout cut short doesn’t feel like much in the moment… until those little choices compound into a diagnosis. The good news? The same math works in your favor. Small shifts — like walking after meals, ad...
