Episode notes
Choose Fiber-Rich Whole Foods
- Favor fiber-rich whole foods and prioritize glycemic load over index for real meals.
- Practical rule: eat more vegetables, fruits, whole grains and avoid refined processed foods.
Be Cautious With Long-Term Keto
- Keto may show short-term glycemic benefits mainly via weight loss but lacks long-term evidence.
- Avoid long-term strict keto because it reduces fiber, harms the microbiome, and may raise cardiovascular risk.
Attack Insulin Resistance Across Pillars
- Target lifestyle pillars: diet quality, exercise, sleep, stress management and remove toxins like smoking.
- Personalize priorities based on where deficits exist, with diet often the first focus.
