Dr. Annette Bosworth: How to Lower Your Insulin and Reverse Metabolic Disease
Think you understand insulin resistance? Think again. Dr. Annette Bosworth (Dr. Boz) takes you inside the cellular battlefield where metabolic disease really begins—and shows you exactly how to win the war.In this eye-opening interview, Dr. Boz reveals why so many people get stuck in "metabolic purgatory"—feeling better initially on keto, then hitting a wall where progress stops and weight loss stalls. Using powerful visual analogies, she explains what's actually happening inside your cells when insulin resistance develops, why your mitochondria are dying, and how your beta cells hold the key to your metabolic future.You'll discover:The "Russian doll effect" of cellular damage and how to reverse itWhy it takes weeks (not days) for some people to feel better on ketoThe hidden reason one cheat meal can undo weeks of progressHow continuous glucose monitors reveal what your doctor can't seeWhy your body fights to keep blood sugar normal—even when it's killing youThe real difference between insulin sensitivity and insulin resistanceDr. Boz also tackles the controversial debate around high-fat vs. low-fat diets for reversing diabetes, explaining why context matters more than ideology when it comes to your metabolism.Whether you're struggling with diabetes, weight loss plateaus, or simply want to understand how your body really works, this conversation will change how you think about food, insulin, and metabolic health forever.Dr. Annette Bosworth is an internal medicine physician, bestselling author of "Anyway You Can" and "Keto Continuum," and a leading voice in metabolic medicine.Enjoyed this episode?

Matt Baszucki: The Power of Ketogenic Therapy for Bipolar Disorder
What if the root cause of severe mental illness isn't a chemical imbalance in the brain, but a metabolic disorder that can be addressed through diet? Matt Bazuki's remarkable recovery from debilitating bipolar disorder offers compelling evidence for this revolutionary approach.At just 19 years old, Matt's life spiraled into chaos as bipolar disorder took hold. Despite coming from a supportive, educated family, he found himself cycling through psychiatric hospitalizations, taking multiple medications, and even experiencing homelessness during manic episodes. Conventional treatments failed him completely – he was officially labeled "treatment resistant" while taking five different psychiatric medications that left him barely functional.The turning point came when Matt's mother discovered research on ketogenic diets for mental health. After implementing a strict ketogenic diet in 2021, Matt experienced what can only be described as a miracle – his symptoms completely resolved within months. Today, nearly four years later, he lives independently, works successfully, and has drastically reduced his medications.Matt explains the science behind his recovery with remarkable clarity. Mental illnesses like bipolar disorder may fundamentally be disorders of brain energy metabolism. For some people, switching from glucose to ketones as the primary brain fuel source creates a metabolically favorable environment that allows the brain to function normally again. This challenges our understanding of these conditions as purely genetic or as simple "chemical imbalances."Beyond diet alone, Matt follows a comprehensive metabolic health protocol that includes proper sleep hygiene, regular exercise, meditation, and circadian rhythm management. This holistic approach supports his brain's energy needs from multiple angles, creating sustainable mental wellness.Now co-hosting the BipolarCast podcast, Matt shares the stories of others who've found similar healing through metabolic interventions. His family has established the Bazuki Foundation to fund research in this emerging field of metabolic psychiatry – work that may ultimately transform how we understand and treat mental illness.Could changing what you eat change your mind? For those suffering from treatment-resistant mental health conditions, Matt's journey offers not just inspiration, but a practical pathway toward recovery that conventional psychiatry has overlooked. Listen now to discover how addressing the metabolism might be the key to mental health that millions have been searching for.Enjoyed this episode?

Dr. Richard Johnson: How Sugar Fuels Cancer, Dementia, and Aging
Sugar isn't just empty calories – it's an active driver of disease through a fascinating biological mechanism that evolved to help mammals survive food scarcity. In this eye-opening conversation with Dr. Richard Johnson, professor of medicine at the University of Colorado and author of "Why Nature Wants Us to Be Fat," we explore the unexpected ways fructose hijacks our metabolism.Dr. Johnson, often described as the "Indiana Jones of nutrition science," reveals how fructose works by actually depleting cellular energy rather than increasing it. This creates a paradoxical situation where our bodies store more fat while simultaneously making us feel exhausted and constantly hungry. The biological pathway, designed to help animals like bears fatten up before hibernation, now works against us in our sugar-saturated world.Most alarming are the connections between fructose metabolism and serious diseases. Cancer cells specifically seek out fructose to fuel their growth in low-oxygen environments, explaining why certain cancers are strongly associated with high sugar consumption. Even more compelling is the evidence linking fructose to dementia – from the earliest stages of cognitive decline showing the exact biological signature of fructose metabolism to animal studies demonstrating memory impairment after just two weeks of sugar exposure.Perhaps most surprising is Dr. Johnson's revelation that our bodies can manufacture fructose internally, especially during mild dehydration or when consuming salty foods. This explains why the combination of salt and carbohydrates is particularly problematic for weight management – they signal our bodies to convert glucose to fructose and store fat.The good news? Understanding this pathway opens doors to protection through specific nutrients like omega-3s and vitamin C, and explains why low-carbohydrate approaches can be so effective. Whether you're concerned about weight, cognitive health, or cancer prevention, this conversation offers practical insights into breaking free from sugar's powerful grip on your metabolism.Enjoyed this episode?
