The Cure…

Type 2 diabetes is curable in the majority of patients for whom the disease is less than six years old. This is no longer fringe science. It is published, replicated, mechanistically explained — and almost never discussed at your doctor’s appointment. If you’ve been told that type 2 diabetes is a chronic, progressive disease thatContinue reading “The Cure…”

For decades, type 2 diabetes was framed as a complex multifactorial disease with heterogeneous causes. Then a British researcher actually scanned the organs. The mechanism turned out to be simple — and the implications change everything.

In the last post, I showed you that type 2 diabetes is not a disease that starts when your fasting glucose crosses 100. It’s a disease that’s been running silently in your body for somewhere between fifteen and twenty-four years before that moment, and the standard screening tests have been missing the entire upstream phase.Continue reading “For decades, type 2 diabetes was framed as a complex multifactorial disease with heterogeneous causes.

The Truth about Cholesterol

Three flagged numbers on my lipid panel — and the four numbers on the same panel that prove I’m in excellent metabolic health. This is my actual lipid panel, drawn at age 54. Total cholesterol: 240 mg/dL. Flagged. Above the 200 cutoff. LDL cholesterol: 149 mg/dL. Flagged. Above the 100 target. Non-HDL cholesterol: 167 mg/dL.Continue reading “The Truth about Cholesterol”

The single biggest cause of heart attacks today is not high cholesterol. It is not saturated fat. It is not evenContinue reading “The Real Cause…”

We are not truly winning the war… heart disease

Open any cardiology textbook from the last decade and you’ll find some version of this: “The age-adjusted death rate from heart disease has dropped by approximately two-thirds since 1970. We are winning.” That sentence is true. It’s also one of the most misleading things in modern medicine. What actually happened Let’s start with the numbers,Continue reading “We are not truly winning the war… heart disease”

Heart Disease Hitting Younger and Younger

You’ve probably been told heart disease is something to worry about later. After 60. After 50, if you’re being safe. Definitely not in your 20s, 30s, or early 40s. That story is outdated, and the data is loud about it. According to the American College of Cardiology, the heart attack rate in adults under 40Continue reading “Heart Disease Hitting Younger and Younger”

You have to eat to lose…

If you train with me you have heard me say again and again you have to eat to lose, eat to fuel, and eat to gain. 90% of reaching our ideal body weight is nutrition. What we do in the gym with weights sculpts the physique we would like reflecting back in the mirror. WhatContinue reading “You have to eat to lose…”
