#141 – AMA #18: Deep dive: sugar and sugar substitutes
“Is glucose a sugar? Yes. Is fructose a sugar? Yes. Are they the same? Not even close.” —Peter Attia
#136 – AMA #17: Body composition methods tour de force, insulin resistance, and Topo Chico
“Skeletal muscles are the greatest reservoir that you have for glucose disposal.” —Peter Attia
#110 – Lew Cantley, Ph.D.: Cancer metabolism, cancer therapies, and the discovery of PI3K
“If I get a result that suddenly doesn’t make sense, to me that’s more exciting. . .if you figure out why it didn’t work and what was wrong, then that’s where most breakthroughs come from.” — Lew Cantley
#88 – Paul Grewal, M.D.: Treating metabolic disease and strategies for long-term health
“You could say our food supply has changed more in the last 100 years than it has in the last 10,000.” — Paul Grewal
#69 – Ronesh Sinha, M.D.: Insights into the manifestation of metabolic disease in a patient population predisposed to metabolic syndrome, and what it teaches us more broadly
“The way we raise our kids early on might actually set a pattern for how much of an accelerated life, or how much of a stressed out nervous system they might have later on. . . a lot of the behavioral patterns that we’re instilling in our kids are kind of setting the foundation for insulin resistance and inflammation early on.” —Ronesh Sinha
#59 – Jason Fung, M.D.: Fasting as a potent antidote to obesity, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and the many symptoms of metabolic illness
“We think of all these responses, obesity, insulin resistance, and the beta cell failure, as pathologic. They’re actually protective. . .Your body is actually trying to protect itself against the root cause of the problem which is too much insulin, too much glucose.” — Jason Fung
