The Insulin & Glucose Doctor: This Will Strip Fat Faster Than Anything! ⁠The Fastest Way To Alzheimer’s! The Link Between Sugar & Cancer! Dr Benjamin Bikman

This podcast features an interview with Dr. Benjamin Bikman, a metabolic scientist, focusing on insulin resistance and its connection to various chronic diseases. The interview explores the two pathways to insulin resistance (fast and slow), explaining the role of stress, inflammation, and high insulin levels. Dr. Bikman details how insulin affects fat cell growth and emphasizes the importance of controlling carbohydrate intake, prioritizing protein, and incorporating healthy fats to manage insulin levels. Listeners gain a deeper understanding of insulin resistance and its impact on health, along with practical dietary strategies for improvement, including the potential benefits and drawbacks of ketogenic diets and the use of weight-loss medications.
