Dr Boz explains exactly what the hormone insulin is, its role in the body, and, most importantly, how insulin levels rise over time. We discuss the role of dietary carbohydrates and processed foods and how both feed insulin resistance.
Dr. Boz also explains the 10 signs and symptoms of insulin resistance so you can spot high insulin levels visibly without requiring blood work or labs.
Dr. Boz explains the role of a Ketogenic Diet and why ketosis (ketones) is extremely important for healing chronic inflammation. We discuss the Dr. Boz ratio, which is an adaptation of the GKI index (also used in metabolic therapy for the treatment of cancer), and what numbers you need to lose weight, heal chronic inflammation, and reverse insulin resistance.
This episode is important if you have insulin resistance. You will learn the simple science of how insulin levels become chronically elevated, how this relates to most chronic diseases and the simple signs and symptoms to spot insulin resistance.
