This eye-opening episode explores groundbreaking research on how body weight loss directly impacts type 2 diabetes remission. Dr. Scott and Tommy break down a 2025 systematic review showing that greater weight loss percentages dramatically increase remission rates—with 30% weight loss leading to 80% complete diabetes remission. Learn why fasting creates the hormonal and metabolic changes needed for sustainable weight loss and how it serves as both prevention and treatment. The episode highlights practical strategies for using intermittent fasting to "get the dang weight off" and emphasizes that consistent small changes trump quick fixes for long-term health.
