Think you understand insulin resistance? Think again. Dr. Annette Bosworth (Dr. Boz) takes you inside the cellular battlefield where metabolic disease really begins—and shows you exactly how to win the war.

In this eye-opening interview, Dr. Boz reveals why so many people get stuck in "metabolic purgatory"—feeling better initially on keto, then hitting a wall where progress stops and weight loss stalls. Using powerful visual analogies, she explains what's actually happening inside your cells when insulin resistance develops, why your mitochondria are dying, and how your beta cells hold the key to your metabolic future.

You'll discover:

• The "Russian doll effect" of cellular damage and how to reverse it
• Why it takes weeks (not days) for some people to feel better on keto
• The hidden reason one cheat meal can undo weeks of progress
• How continuous glucose monitors reveal what your doctor can't see
• Why your body fights to keep blood sugar normal—even when it's killing you
• The real difference between insulin sensitivity and insulin resistance

Dr. Boz also tackles the controversial debate around high-fat vs. low-fat diets for reversing diabetes, explaining why context matters more than ideology when it comes to your metabolism.

Whether you're struggling with diabetes, weight loss plateaus, or simply want to understand how your body really works, this conversation will change how you think about food, insulin, and metabolic health forever.

Dr. Annette Bosworth is an internal medicine physician, bestselling author of "Anyway You Can" and "Keto Continuum," and a leading voice in metabolic medicine.
