It's Dr. Ben Bikman's third time on the Muscle Intelligence
Podcast, and with good reason: Dr. Bikman's knowledge of human
metabolism is matched by few. He is among the world’s
foremost scientists on metabolic health and insulin
resistance. Much of Dr. Bikman's recent lab work is
focused on the pathogenicity of chronically elevated
insulin.
On today's interview, Dr. Bikman breaks down the mechanisms behind
optimizing the process of fat loss, debunks macronutrient myths,
and reveals the truth about aging well.
- The MOST IMPORTANT
fuel for the brain (and how to produce it in your body).
- Where the calories
in/calories out model of weight loss can be invoked.
- The macronutrient
you should prioritize at every meal, to optimize body
composition.
- A simple, immediate
lever you can pull to manage insulin levels.
- The ultimate
longevity myths and the KEY to supporting your health as you
age.
