Hello friends! This episode is a primer to episode #200 which is a very special episode coming out with Dr. Cate Shanahan on Monday! In preparation for this upcoming episode, I explain Dr. Cate's mind blowing hypothesis on the origins of metabolic syndrome, obesity and insulin resistance. Hint: It is NOT actually sugar and carbs blocking our bodies' ability to burn fat! I walk you through exactly why your body may have lost the ability to burn fat over time, and why it has become a sugar burner, as well as what to do about it to fix it and turn your body back into a fat burning machine! And also why keto is so important and critical in fixing your body's fat burning systems!

A ketogenic diet may or may not be appropriate if you have type 2 diabetes, so you must consult with your physician if you have this condition. Anyone under the age of 18 should consult with their physician and their parents or legal guardian before beginning such a diet].
