Fiber is already a win. 👏

And trust me, you do not need to start tracking soluble vs. insoluble fiber. I won’t do that to you! 🫣❤️

But knowing the difference helps you understand why variety matters.

Soluble fiber helps slow digestion, which can help you feel fuller longer while supporting steadier blood sugar and healthy cholesterol.

Insoluble fiber adds bulk and helps keep things moving, supporting regular digestion.

And most plant foods give you a mix of both.

So instead of adding another nutrition rule, keep it simple: more plants + more variety.

July was the start of what’s already proving to be such a beautiful summer. ☀️ A little work, a lot of family, some adventure, and so much to be grateful for.

🍰 Abuela’s Plant-Based Desserts officially went into presale! 75 plant-based Latin and Caribbean desserts reimagined with more flexibility around sugar, fat, calories, and ingredients, without losing the flavor, comfort, or nostalgia.

Comment or DM DESSERTS and I’ll send you the preorder link.

🚤 We spent Fourth of July in Lake George with friends, cliff jumping, tubing, chasing after the kids, and making memories together.

A reminder that health isn’t just about how your body looks. It’s about what your body allows you to do. I want the strength and stamina to keep saying yes to these moments.

🎾 Caro started tennis camp and is loving it.

👩🏽‍🍳 I had the best time as guest chef at Danielle M Cook & Play Camp, teaching the kids how to make cookies from my new book and talking nutrition. And honestly? They knew way more than I expected! 😂

📺 Then Miami for a little work + play and more time at . New wellness segments are coming over the next few weeks!

❤️ I also got to spend time with Mami, who has made incredible progress through my Diabetes Management program, lowering her fasting glucose by about 90 points, losing 16 lbs, and bringing her A1C from 8.6% to 6.5% in less than a year. So proud of her.

🤎 And finally, dinner with Jackie, someone who has been part of this community for years, but who I finally got to meet IRL. A reminder that this little online world can create very real relationships. Excited for our next girls dinner Jacqueline Cuervo

Now we’re getting ready for our annual Puerto Rico trip. 🇵🇷

Tell me one moment from July you want to remember. 💛

Think diabetes means chocolate mousse is off the table? Think again. 🍫

This creamy plant-based version uses silken tofu instead of heavy cream, giving it protein and less fat than many traditional recipes, without sacrificing that rich, silky texture.

Enjoy a portion after a balanced meal, add fresh berries, and check the chocolate-chip label for total sugar since brands can vary.

Because supporting your blood sugar doesn’t mean giving up dessert. It means learning how to enjoy the foods you love in a way that works for your body.

Hi, I’m Karla, a Latina nutritionist and two-time cookbook author. I help women improve their blood sugar and overall health with simple, culturally familiar plant-based food.

I’ve lost 20 pounds since January, not by doing anything extreme, cutting out my cultural foods, or spending hours in the gym.

I’ve done it by repeating the same habits long enough for them to make a difference. 💥

These habits may not look exciting on social media, but they have helped me feel stronger, more energized, and more confident as I move through perimenopause.

This season of life does not require punishment or extremes. It requires consistency and habits that actually fit your real life.

And yes, you can improve your health without giving up the foods that connect you to your culture.

Save this post for days you feel like you’re not doing enough.

Which of these habits would make the biggest difference in your life right now? Tell me in the comments. ❤️

This may be one of the most powerful habits you can build if you have diabetes.

🥗 Before your meal, eat a small salad with fiber-rich, non-starchy vegetables like:
• broccoli
• avocado
• bell peppers
• spinach
• artichoke hearts

Starting your meal with fiber can help slow digestion and reduce the blood sugar rise after eating.

Simple. Powerful. Backed by science.

💚 Comment or DM “FIBER” and I’ll send you my Fiber Guide with simple ways to eat more fiber and support healthier blood sugar levels.
