I’m joined once again by the brilliant David Roberts (@davidroberts9532), co-founder of Mara Labs, for a deep dive into the metabolic health crisis and the surprising science behind real, sustainable wellness.
We kick things off by defining what metabolic health actually means, and how insulin resistance, glucose dysfunction, and mitochondrial decline are quietly shaping the future of our health. David walks us through the metabolic cascade that begins every time we eat, and why this natural process breaks down with age, inactivity, and modern diets.
We also get into the critical role of muscle mass in regulating glucose, how fasting and autophagy rejuvenate mitochondria, and why walking may be the most underrated tool in the fight against obesity. You’ll hear candid takes on body positivity culture, food addiction, the harsh reality of toxin buildup, and how fat stores act as both protectors and prisons.
Whether you’re battling blood sugar issues or just looking for a cleaner, more empowered approach to wellness, this one’s a must-listen.
