This podcast episode features a discussion between Steven Bartlett and Dr. Annette Bosworth, focusing on Dr. Bosworth's clinical thesis that excess insulin contributes to chronic disease, brain debris, and dementia. She proposes that producing ketones regularly, through practices like cutting carbohydrates, increasing fats, and intermittent fasting, can serve as a cleaner fuel source, reducing cellular "trash" and improving cognitive function. The discussion covers practical steps such as the "Keto Continuum" and the "sardine challenge," emphasizes tracking blood glucose and ketones, and includes anecdotal evidence and advice on supplements and training. Dr. Bosworth's personal motivations are also touched upon, reinforcing her actionable message about lowering insulin and utilizing ketones for better health.
