Description
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Ronesh Sinha. He is the author of The South Asian Health Solution and is an internal medicine physician and expert on insulin resistance and corporate wellness. His groundbreaking work in reversing diabetes and insulin resistance in diverse populations has been featured on the front cover of Fortune magazine and the LA times.

He serves as Chief Medical Officer for Silicon Valley Employer Forum where he helps shape global health benefits for more than 55 major tech companies. In this episode, Dr. Ronesh Sinha discusses why the standard cholesterol risk calculator doesn’t tell you everything you need to know. Instead, you should ask for advanced lipid testing; Dr. Sinha explains the importance of having this advanced lipid profile, and he touches on the nuances of cholesterol. Then, Dr. Sinha dives into emotional metabolism and describes how stress can be worse for your glucose levels than chocolate cake. Tune in as we chat about heart rate variability, the relationship between intermittent fasting and strength training, and how to sneak more protein into your diet.

A standard risk calculator won’t show the dangerous atherogenic insulin-resistant cholesterol particles. Luckily, there are modified calculators that individuals use worldwide, and some incorporate triglycerides. Risk calculators need to integrate insulin resistance. The standard guidelines and tools we use in America have a long way to go. [12:50] The Reason You Should Ask For Advanced Lipid Testing Lipoprotein is a boat that carries cholesterol. There are two different boats: Type A and Type B. Type B is the bad boat. An abundance of smaller particles causes more damage. When looking at a standard profile, you're not going to get the clarity to know how many Type A vs. Type B you have. You can only know how many Type A vs. Type B you have by getting an advanced lipid profile. [20:45] Emotional Metabolism: Stress Is Worse Than Chocolate Cake What is the emotional impact of your behaviors and thoughts on glucose control? Everyone knows that stress is not good for you. However, you can track your emotional status and measure glucose against it. Even if you have zero grams of carbs, stress can increase your glucose levels. Early signs of stress will flood the liver with glucose. It’s time to do meaningful things to mitigate your stress levels. [24:45] Using Gratitude and Mindful Breathing Throughout A Stressful Day How do you use gratitude on the spot after a stressful event? Many people practice gratitude and journaling in the morning. However, your mind can go into utter chaos when you deal with things throughout the day. Moments of gratitude throughout the day will be essential. Also, be mindful of your breathing patterns during the day. Mindful breathing will vastly improve your blood pressure and blood glucose.
