Dr Jason Fung is an expert in treating type 2 diabetes and obesity with science. He will explain why it’s not about calories; it’s about insulin and cortisol. Both are important to reduce blood sugar and insulin.
In this episode, we reveal:
* The Calorie Myth: Why eating less just slows down your metabolism and leaves you trapped.
* Fat Storage Mode: How high insulin levels physically lock your fat cells so your body cannot burn them for fuel.
* Reversing Diabetes: Why type 2 diabetes is a dietary disease that can be reversed, not a life sentence.
* Food Order Secrets: How changing the order of the foods on your plate alters how your hormones react.
* Fasting for Freedom: Simple, no-cost fasting methods that reset your body and lower your insulin naturally.

![Prevent Cancer: #1 WORST Food That Feed CANCER Cells [Thomas Seyfried]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/pwhRskOPwVk/mqdefault.jpg "Prevent Cancer: #1 WORST Food That Feed CANCER Cells [Thomas Seyfried]
Is our understanding of cancer evolving? Professor Thomas Seyfried (Boston College) shares his decades of research into the metabolic theory of cancer, proposing that it may be a mitochondrial metabolic failure rather than a purely genetic event. In this episode, we discuss how conventional nutritional guidelines may be impacting metabolic health and the role of cellular energy in chronic disease.
From the limitations of the Somatic Mutation Theory to the science of how cancer cells utilize fermentation, Prof. Seyfried provides a scientific framework for understanding cancer cell fuel sources. We explore how optimizing the Glucose-Ketone Index (GKI) and supporting mitochondrial function can play a role in reclaiming cellular health.
In This Episode, We Reveal:
- The Metabolic Framework: Why cancer research is shifting focus from DNA mutations to mitochondrial health.
- The Warburg Effect: The science of how cancer cells depend on glucose and glutamine fermentation.
- The GKI Metric: How to calculate the Glucose-Ketone Index to monitor your metabolic fuel environment.
- Cytoplasmic Transfer: The research suggesting that healthy mitochondria can influence tumor cell behavior.
- The Glutamine Factor: Why sugar isnt the only metabolic substrate and how cells adapt to low-glucose environments.
- Metabolic Management: A deep dive into the Press-Pulse strategy for addressing cancer cell energy.
