How metabolic health impacts your ‘optimal’ diet
This audio clip is from “Ask Me Anything” (AMA) episode #36 — all things fruits and vegetables, originally released on June 20,…
Back on the merry-go-round of bad science regarding meat consumption
A new observational study has reported positive associations between meat intake and type 2 diabetes risk, but let’s repeat: correlation is not causation.
#314 ‒ Rethinking nutrition science: the evolving landscape of obesity treatment, GLP-1 agonists, protein, and the need for higher research standards | David Allison, Ph.D.
“I think we really need a radically different public health paradigm.” —David Allison
#311 ‒ Longevity 101: a foundational guide to Peter’s frameworks for longevity, and understanding CVD, cancer, neurodegenerative disease, nutrition, exercise, sleep, and more
“I would say three-quarters of the benefits you can get towards a longer life, come solely from pursuing better health.” —Peter Attia
#306 – AMA #60: preventing cognitive decline, nutrition myths, lowering blood glucose, apoB, and blood pressure, and more
“Metabolic health, first and foremost, is the goal of nutrition.” —Peter Attia
Do high protein diets increase cancer risk?
Is there any merit to the idea that consuming more protein increases one’s risk of developing or dying from cancer?
#302 – Confronting a metabolic epidemic: understanding liver health and how to prevent, diagnose, and manage MAFLD and liver disease | Julia Wattacheril, M.D., M.P.H.
“The average person you’re seeing with MASLD is much more at risk for cardiovascular-related outcomes and malignancy-related outcomes from their metabolic health than they are for liver-related risks.” —Julia Wattacheril
#300 – Special episode: Peter on exercise, fasting, nutrition, stem cells, geroprotective drugs, and more — promising interventions or just noise?
“The probability that having a high VO2 max, high muscle mass, and high muscle strength are going to increase the length of your life and improve the quality of your life. . .is so high that to act in disregard of that is irresponsible.” —Peter Attia
Does the timing of sleep loss during the night impact subsequent negative metabolic effects?
A recent study claims that late-night sleep loss is more damaging than early-night sleep loss, but the data leave ample room for doubt
Does low iron intake change exercise capacity?
A study demonstrates metabolic shifts that occur with and without sufficient iron levels
#283 ‒ Gut health & the microbiome: improving and maintaining the microbiome, probiotics, prebiotics, innovative treatments, and more | Colleen Cutcliffe, Ph.D.
“You start out almost like a blank slate, you get a lot more diverse, and then as we age, you start to lose that diversity and therefore some key functions in the microbiome.” —Colleen Cutcliffe
