But instead of giving in, she’s choosing to fight back — fork in hand.Together, Marlene and Dr. Marbas explore the root causes of her chronic disease, including insulin resistance, and what really happens when you stop treating symptoms and start addressing the foundation: food, stress, and lifestyle.Dr. Marbas reviews Marlene’s current labs and we get a front-row seat to her early progress after adopting a more whole food, plant-strong approach. With every plant-powered meal, she’s already seeing her blood sugar and blood pressure start to drop. This episode is more than just numbers — it’s about resilience, self-care, and rediscovering joy through food that loves you back. Tune in to hear how small, consistent changes can create big-time results, and get ready to follow along as we see what happens next on Marlene’s plant-strong journey.Episode Webpage: <a href="https://www.plantstrongpodcast.com/blog/marlene-skiver" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.plantstrongpodcast.com/blog/marlene-skiver</a>Watch the Episode on YouTube: <a href="https://youtu.be/EeaiaKEPoDI" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/EeaiaKEPoDI</a>
