Practices that may help

1. Reduce added sugar as an inflammation driver
   Added sugar raises CRP and other inflammatory markers through multiple pathways — it is not just a calorie problem.

2. Eliminate liquid sugar as a first step
   Sugary drinks deliver glucose with no fiber buffer — producing the fastest, sharpest glucose spikes in the diet.

3. Take a small amount of apple cider vinegar before high-carbohydrate meals
   One to two tablespoons of vinegar diluted in water before a meal blunts the postprandial glucose rise.
   Glycemic Variability and Mood, Made Practical
4. Add soluble fiber to carbohydrate-heavy meals
   Soluble fiber creates a gel in the small intestine that mechanically slows glucose absorption — the simplest glucose-stabilizing food add.

7. Replace refined carbohydrates with whole-food sources

8. Use a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) to discover your personal glycemic responses
