You might find Dr Chatterjee and Dr Jamnadas videos to also help you on your health journey. 1) nutritious diet with limited poisons (sugars and fake sugars, alcohol, smoking, omega 6 veg seed oils). 2) lots of strength training AND faster movement that strengthens heart/lungs. 3) LOW TECH to get good sleep 7-8 hours every night, no screens an hour before bed. 4) low stress, good relationships

Great slogan: "You cannot outrun a bad diet". Until I was about 50 I believed I would always bounce back from sugar binges by exercising.

Dr Lustig is a genius he just knows more then anyone else - dr or otherwise! !! Probably because he has been doing this for decades. He is dedicated and really is the only one I follow - period. I bought his book and cut out sugar and processed food. I lost 20 pounds 150 to 130. And ALL my belly fat !!I have more energy and my lungs take in deep breaths better and my oxygen levels went from 93 to 98. My ha1c was 5.6 - I’m going back (6 months later) for another test which I expect to be much lower.

0:54: 🔑 Insulin resistance is a phenomenon where the receptors for insulin on the cells are downregulated and signaling beyond the receptor is dysfunctional, leading to various chronic diseases. 11:21: 💡 The liver is the primary site of insulin resistance and fatty liver disease affects a large portion of the population. 19:54: 📚 The discussion involves the relationship between diabetic nephropathy, insulin, and glucose levels, as well as the impact of exercise and diet on metabolic conditions. 28:05: 🍎 The liver plays a crucial role in metabolic health, and fixing the liver is important for preventing and treating chronic metabolic diseases. 36:58: 📚 Type 2 diabetes is eminently reversible by fixing the diet, but the American Diabetes Association does not emphasize the importance of insulin and does not recommend measuring it. 46:15: 📉 Fasting insulin is an important measure of metabolic health and should ideally be less than 10 Microunits per milliliter, with insulin resistance occurring above 15 Microunits per milliliter. 55:35: 👨‍⚕ Fiber is essential for maintaining a healthy intestinal barrier and preventing inflammation in the body. 1:05:08: 🔬 There is currently no strong evidence to support the use of supplements in improving insulin resistance. 1:14:00: ✅ The discussion explores the use of GLP-1 analogs for insulin resistance and weight loss, highlighting the need for further research.

What an amazing, comprehensive and enlightening discussion..! I was diagnosed with Syndrome X, hyperinsulinemia, reactive hypoglycemia about 35+ years ago. Never knew what to do about it until recently, when I decided to actively measure my fasting insulin and find ways to lower it from 17.5 units to 4.7, per the latest test. In my case, understanding how to reduce cortisol was the key. Once I controlled cortisol, my blood pressure and blood sugar normalized. I was able to add 3-day water only fasts to my time restricted eating protocol. Unfortunately, this wasn't anything my medical care providers taught me. IMO it took too long for me to acquire the knowledge and then the resolve to act. Thanks to scientists like Dr Lustig and others that care to tell it like it is and teach others....

I do a minimum of 16 hours / day, 36 hour fasts regularly, and longer (72+ hour) fasts multiple times a year. It can be overdone, though. A weekly 72 hour fast would be very taxing on your body and maybe too much of a good thing? It took us years and decades to get in the ill health we were in.

I only take thyroxine for my underactive thyroid. I hope to get off of it over the next year on this diet.

Quest doesn't even offer a fasting insulin test now. I had to go to the local hospital I use to get my blood insulin level, and I had to ask my PCP to order it. My fasting insulin turned out to be 17.5, but a month of intermittent fasting, keto, and exercise brought it down to 10.6.

Thank you both for a fascinating discussion. The section on different types of diabetes was particularly enlightening. Fortuitously, the question in my mind, for the past two days, has been, "why is insulin not a standard measurement?"

Insulin secreted into the blood is carried to the liver through the intestinal hepatic vein where it works and a majority of it is metabolized before entering the general circulation. The blood levels of insulin fluctuate fast and in a temporal manner apart from low level and insensitive/nonspecific tests. A better way may be measuring C-peptide level as a serogate .

I did my triglyceride to HDL ratio and it was 0.62, I'm thinking this year it will be even lower. Thanks for these very informative videos helping us to stay alive. ...oh... my heart attack may have actually just been a raise in troponin due to running and 4 hours in SR Tachycardia but they found a 99% blockage 4 days later when they just 'checked' before sending me home.

I worked for a health insurance company in 1987 and as part of my job, I read a lot of Underwriting journals. I remember reading an article that said the rate of T2D was rising so fast, the researchers expected half of all Americans to have it by 2025. 1987 was 5 years or so after the food industry started pushing the lowfat narrative. People were developing T2D just 5 years after adopting high carb/low fat diets. And look where we are now - where the researcher predicted we'd be. Even as a very young underwriter, I told my coworkers that T2D would bankrupt our country.

With lower trigs , you get less small dense ldl cholesterol that may cause plaque/heart disease,( depending on how much hdl you have).The carnivore diet of nutrient dense beef can also repair gut permeability, (caused by processed food). This restores the barrier between digesting food and the bloodstream .This polluted blood can also pass a permeable blood brain barrier ,(eventually resulting in neurological/psychiatric conditions.).This is thought to be driving skyrocketing cases of mental health disorders in countries with processed food .

Fantastic. Thank you!

This podcast is wisdom! Thank you 🙏

very very useful. Thanks

It's amazing how much we know now about all the different types of dysfunction now. How they're able to work out the specific problem

I just found Dr Lustig and I have to admit, I love his FIRE!! He's super knowledgeable, and he fully understands the holistic view of the issue. Gives me hope we could ebb and fight the diabetic scourge with which the world is faced.

Dr. Lustig is LEGEND his call out on the link between processed sugars and MDS is blueprint for acting upon integrity regardless of popularity and conventional wisdom. Thank you for the excellent conversation. I salute you gentleman. Science, truth and doing the right thing for the right reasons. Word!

Brilliant, Thank you. Love listening to Robert Lustig, he has the most brilliant mind!

Dr. Dom, you cut off Dr Robert at a very crucial time. He started to explain the 4 ways to reduce insulin resistance and started with changing the diet. He didn’t finish explaining about the diet nor did he get to the other 3 methods when you interrupted and asked about Lucine in body builders. How many of the public listening are body builders? Let him finish how to heal insulin resistance before worrying about body builders because that’s what the vast majority of the public has.

I can listen to dr lustig all day…thank you doctor!

I go in spells. I watched everything he had up a few years ago--now he's everywhere. I've been binging since Saturday. and Metabolic is on the way to my mailbox. I broke with sugar 8 years ago but am trying to help others.

Great show gentlemen. Thanks so much!

Thank you for this offering. Two wonderful minds in this space.

Love the way he explains things

This was a gold mine of information...

Excellent discussion! Thank you gentlemen!

Great to see another video from Dr Lustig. I watched the old ones with great interest. Thank you for the content and the discussion. Quite technical and not always easy to follow but interesting nonetheless

Absolutely brilliant!

Prof. Robert Lustig is Nickola Tesla of the Century In Medicine , THANK YOU

Nickola Tesla is a fraud!!!! He is a trickster!

Dom D’Agostino, you are facilitating and promoter of great quality science/clinic application. And thanks of course to Dr Lustig and his work.

I was an athlete 20 years ago and I didn’t eat well and had HTN and dyslipidemia back then. After cutting out UPF and sugar, I reversed all my chronic diseases. Dr. Lustig is the way, but you gotta know the biochemistry and medicine to know what to do. 21:07

Always love to listen to Dr. Lustig.

Great idea and thanks .

Dr Lustig, I am so facinated by your interviews and lectures online. I am inn the process of getting my A1C down by not eating fructose and severely limiting carbs.

This is fantastic information. I could listen to these guys talk for hours. Thank you!

This is beyond incredible! I wish there was a program for Senior citizens or make Medicare pay for this! Please! It would save millions in the long run!

Many many Thanks Drs.Lustig & D^Agostino for a Wonderful Dissertation on the metabolic syndrome. from a long-retired physician.

What a wonderful dialogue, the information provided here is the most important information for Human kind for the next 100 years. I listened it once will do it several times & will read books written by both of you.

Thank you so much for such detailed content. Really sheds light on how body works with insulin and deep dives into it's function.

At 60 years I started a low carb diet now 2.5 years later I have dropped close to 80 lbs today I talked to my Dr at my annual visit and asked her if she follows any of the low carb USA or Low Carb down under podcasts and she said to me.” I don’t think carbohydrates diet plays any roll in fat gain or loss” I told her I lost 80 lbs myself on low carb, but she just brushed it aside. 😳 But she is really one of the good Drs who really cars for her patients.But low carb really is not yet that popular concept among Drs who are older than 50 years old

Dr. Lustig is legendary and heroic.

I simply love your content! This is one of the most reliable sources for people who are interested in nutrition and are tired of being lied to. What always confuses me though, is that some of the video covers look a lot like AG1 advertising. In my eyes AG1 is the exact opposite of Levels: a massive advertising with dubious statements (there are no 79 vitamins, for instance) to market a bad product that can even harm people.

Just "THANK YOU"!!

I've learned so much from following Dr. Lustig.

You both are amazing!

Enjoyed this excellent and informative conversation around the nebulous term "insulin resistance". To learn that it can originate in different tissues and environments, that the types have specificity and are linked with different health problems I found very helpful. As someone who practiced time restricted feeding and was careful around carbs for 5 years before finding out I was on the first rung of pre-diabetes in spite of looking and feeling healthy this is a mystifying issue for me. As someone who took the information serously, immediately went from carb cautious to keto, bought a CGM and found 6 months later that my A1C was one degree WORSE this information helps me with the feelings of disempowerment and apathy in the face of this health challenge. As someone exasperated by being unable to get insulin tested it is encouraging to know that there are people more interested in these issues than my GP

I love the level of in depth knowledge and explanation dr Lustig provides. I always grateful to listen to you.

Very good!!!!!

It was a very informative and important talk. I liked it a lot. A kind of must watch for good understanding of what Insulin Resistance is and what to do about it.

I really liked this presentation

This is genuinely fascinating. 😮

Great information

I've been sugar free for 4 months. Thanks Dr. Lustig

Certainly one of the best videos of medicine ever done by this brilliant endocrinologist.

This is all so fascinating and useful. I'd like to know what your take is on microplastics Dr. Lustig?

This is the best explanation I have heard about insulin resistance. When I asked my doctor during my annual wellness visit to check my fasting insulin he said I didn’t need it. I m going back to have him draw it after hearing this. It was drawn a year ago by a different doctor. So I do have something to compare. I’m definitely insulin resistant. Now that I’m on a ketogenic diet I want to know if my levels are going down. I’ll suggest he look at this information. I hope he will.

I enjoy listening to and watching Dr. Lustigs numerous lectures, KZread discussions, and occasional cameos on health documentaries. I would love for my son and I to meet him someday. Perhaps Dr. Lustig would consider making a lecture tour around the CSU campuses in California. Is that possible?

Yes let’s have him do an entire tour just for you lol smh

although some of the scientific details hurts my brain a little, THIS INFO FROM THE DOC HAS GIVEN ME HOPE!...Thank u!!!

That was great, Doc’s. Well worth the price of admission.

Mr. Lustig knows his stuff and Dom was all ears taking it all in .. Same as me ...

Thank you, excellent discussion. My Dr that thinks my very low carb/high animal fat way of eating is so wrong in spite of great A1C, low fasting insulin, perfect kidney and liver numbers and triglycerides being lower than my HDL will get the link to this from this 76 year old

The first rule of keto club is you don't talk about keto club. Just tell your doc you quit sodas.

2-26-"2024 I got a test a A1C test which was 7.4, my doctor told me I had diabetes a week before, and then less than a week after he told me, I myself fell on the floor with a diabetic coma and I almost died, and then when I recovered weeks later after going to the emergency Ward and was recovering, they gave me my A1C test, but I had no idea then I had such a serious situation that I was in, and now they got me taking a long-lasting shot twice a day, but the only reason I know anything about it is because I studied my situation out by myself by listening to three of your videos, and much reading on the subject, and I'm still trying to figure out what to do with myself other than I immediately changed my eating habits, and that my eating habits were wrong, and boy am I glad I watched your videos and studied diabetes type 2 for myself and I'm still learning, but the two long-lasting shots, and I'm realizing that those two shots a day is actually hurting me, so I'm going back to my doctor and showing him the list of things I want to be tested for which is the list you provided in your videos, and I'm just trying to accumulate information to keep myself alive and to know what to do, I need all the help I can get, and after I show my doctor the list of things I want to be tested for he hasn't even said enough to me to know much about diabetes and I'm going in on the 14th of this month and I've got a lot of information and tests according to the list you gave looks like a good list of things that I should be tested for to make sure how I need to go forward with my diagnosis of diabetes type 2, your videos helped a lot and help me find information so I'd even know what to talk to my doctor about cuz I didn't get much information from him, and I'm hoping he's willing to give me these tests to really hone in on what my problem is individually in my own system so I can adjust things and find out if I really need insulin and why they made the decision to make me take long-lasting shots twice a day, I need all the help I can get.

Thx for this movie - i observe Insulin Resistance on huge population in Poland . Very often people have insulin level after fasting less team 10, but the problem is after drink glucose - sometimes is growing to 300 and after 2 hours growing more

THANKS 😊😊
