Office Hours: How to Choose the Best Diet for Your Body


Listen Later

What Should I Actually Eat?

Diet confusion is everywhere. But the truth is, there’s no one-size-fits-all diet. The best diet is the one that works for your biology. In this Office Hours episode, I answer your most common diet questions and break down the core principles everyone should understand before choosing how to eat.
In this episode I break down:
• Why the “best diet” is personalized—and why ideology should never override biology
• The universal principles everyone should follow, regardless of diet
• Why ultra-processed foods—not carbs, fat, or protein—are the real problem
• How blood sugar dysregulation drives chronic disease, including mental health issues
• Keto, paleo, vegan, and Mediterranean: who they help, common mistakes, and what to watch for
• How to tell if your diet is working—using symptoms, energy, digestion, mood, and labs
Your body is the smartest doctor in the room. The key is learning how to listen.
