Welcome to this edition of the LCHF podcast, I’m Brad Brown. We head to Tasmania in Australia once again as we’re joined by Dr Gary Fettke. Doc, we’ve spoken extensively about cholesterol. The last podcast we did was actually just breaking down and debunking a few of the myths. We had a great question in from Janet and she wanted to know about insulin resistance.

She says she’s heard the term bandied around fairly often, but from a layman’s perspective, she struggles with the understanding of what insulin resistance is. Can you really break it down for someone who is not from a medical background, what is insulin resistance and why is it a problem?
