This episode is brought to you by the⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Primal Tallow Soaps & Balms.⁠

Dr Koutnik explains why you don't need carbohydrates to fix insulin resistance and burn fat.

Dr. Andrew P. Koutnik discusses his experiences living with Type 1 diabetes and how it shapes his understanding of nutrition, particularly the role of carbohydrates. He challenges the conventional wisdom surrounding carbohydrate intake, especially for athletes, and presents evidence from his research on the ketogenic diet. The discussion covers the impact of carbohydrates on blood sugar and insulin resistance, the benefits of a high-fat diet, and practical tips for individuals looking to improve their metabolic health. Dr. Koutnik emphasizes the importance of taking the first step towards dietary change and the potential for reversing conditions like insulin resistance and fatty liver disease through lifestyle modifications.
