I just got my own insulin levels through Function Health HOMA-IR of 0.83, slashed from 6 months ago. No doctor is going to order this. You have to be in control of your metabolic health.

One of the absolute best books I have read in my quest to take control of my metabolic health over the last year. The information, guidance on bio markers, comprehensive check lists in the back half… must have taken years to pull this together. Thank you.

I tried talking to my endocrinologist about fasting insulin and HOMA-IR score. There was zero interest (or time?) for the discussion. Especially since HbA1c was “fine”. But my understanding is heightened serum glucose will present years (decades) after initial insulin

First ever peer-reviewed low-carb/keto food pyramid!! 🔥New paper addresses all the myths vs. FACTs on these diets. i.e, they are not nutritionally deficient, not a "fad" diet, do not have harmful side effects, do not cause heart disease, and more. Link below.

This is pretty spot on for those with serious metabolic dysfunction. Skipping legumes or rice may not be necessary for some (and indeed, they both offer benefits if they're organic and wild) but for many with dysbiosis or inflammation, opting for a fully bean/grain-free diet

In the last six months, these six books have revolutionized my entire understanding of what "healthy" means, and how it is measured. It's not about weight or BMI. I think most of us are waking up to that. But what's on your list of markers? How much do you understand the levers

Insulin dominates your health. Watch this legendary Conversation with Dr. Ben Bikman | Jason Fung youtu.be/3GKiT2Ihek8?si… Make sure you consider all the signaling insulin does during your daily routines like meals and exercises.

For almost one year I have been using Levels to get insights in to my glucose response to diet and lifestyle. This insight popped up this morning. Besides reflecting healthier diet choices, it is another indicator of improving insulin sensitivity. I wish it calculated Area

The Wall Street Journal spoke to 30 packaged food company leaders. They said their greatest business “threat” was Americans wanting to be healthy.

Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. Totally agree and it's great to see. I'd be interested to learn (impossible, I know) what the common variable is. I suspect at the heart of many of the changes is a drop in fasting insulin. The constant consumption of carbohydrates leads to chronic hyperinsulinemia, driving not

Been working on my metabolic health a little over 6 months. First time I have considered cold therapy watching this one. After this it sounds like a must try workout for fat cells!

Fasting and time restricted eating has been foundational to turning around my metabolic health. So much so that I made it in to a tee shirt so I remind myself all morning it is a Fast Start day today! metabolicdad.com/products/fast-…
