1:31Now PlayingEvery January we obsess over calories, steps and macros but almost no one stops to ask: what am I actually trying to fix?!
So I thought what a better time to get today’s guest Dr Benjamin Bikman back on the show for an informative conversation to do exactly this.
One of the things that I’ve identified that is front of mind for all of my listeners is their relationship with sugar and carbs.
This is Dr Benjamin’s speciality and is his second time on the show but for those that may not know him, he is a metabolic scientist who researches the link between insulin resistance and nearly every chronic disease.
The reception that we got from our first episode was incredible. The comment section was filled with comments like “It’s taken me at least 6 hours to watch this. I keep backing up to take notes” and over 6 million of you watched that conversation.
Last time, we covered the links between insulin, heart disease, cancer, and Alzheimer’s but this conversation is DIFFERENT.
We explored the importance of controlling insulin to lose weight, why most New Year's diet resolutions fail and so much more…
He addressed things like:
- The REAL truth about the Keto diet…
- Why too much insulin is making you sick?
- His opinion about calorie counting (that you should hear!)
- How ___ will strip fat faster than anything.
I haven’t heard insulin resistance explained this well before - It goes to show you that there are a lot of talented people out there on this planet, but in all honesty not everyone can TEACH brilliance to enlighten others like this.
Let me know your thoughts after watching. Tell me what stood out most to you!
