In this episode, Alex is back for part 2 of our myth busting discussion—be sure to listen to our conversation from last week if you haven’t already! Before you dive into this episode, I want to tell you that this is a powerful podcast – especially if you’re overweight or if you have insulin resistance/type II diabetes.  Alex and I thoroughly discuss the research and ideas we’ve been compiling for over 2 years, and he presents a novel and evidence-based paradigm of metabolic health and insulin resistance (which are at the core of many of the chronic diseases that kill us)…one that may just change your health forever! Why does this matter?  9 out of 10 people in the United States (or possibly even higher) have poor metabolic health. And these issues are connected to heart disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disease…the major killers faced by everyone in modern society.   

Nutrition Expert | We’ve Been Getting Insulin Resistance All WRONG! | Alex Leaf

In this episode, I’m speaking with nutrition expert Alex Leaf, someone you may remember from past episodes.  I’ve been lucky to work closely with Alex for the past few years—he’s a highly informed researcher and science writer, and he’s rare in the world of nutrition. He’s extremely scientifically literate and able to break through popular trends to provide practical and accurate interpretations of sometimes complicated research. I’m really excited for you to hear our latest conversation…we cover a lot of ground, including what the research says about weight loss and calories in/calories out, low-carb versus low-fat diets, the best diet for fat loss, how a low-protein diet affects life span, and, one topic I know you won’t want to miss; Alex’s opinion on a recent publication showing that time-restricted eating leads to a much higher risk of death from cardiovascular disease…is this true? To celebrate Alex’s appearance on the podcast, I’m offering The Fat Loss Blueprint for $200 off the regular price of $497. Alex and I collaborated on creating this program, and it’s an evidence-based, no gimmicks approach to very effective fat loss.  >> Click here to enroll in The Fat Loss Blueprint for only $297 with the code “Alex” at checkout.
