Dr Brian Lenzkes | The Real Cause of Insulin Resistance & How to Lower Your Insulin Levels KKP: 436

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Brian Lenzkes. He is an internal medicine doctor based in San Diego who has focused much of his attention on clinical nutrition. He owned his own medical practice with a group of physicians from 2004-2020. Dr. Lenzkes is co-host of the popular LowCarbMD podcast, which has more than 1.4 million downloads, and is a professional speaker. Dr. Lenzkes attended UC Irvine and received a Bachelor of Science in Biology before attending the University of Southern California Medical School. After graduating in 1999, he started his Residency Program at Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego. He extended his residency for a year to serve as Chief Resident before starting his private practice career at Internal Medicine Associates in 2004. Dr. Lenzkes has been voted one of the "Top Doctors" in San Diego for 11 years. Even after gaining the medical community's and his patients' respect, Dr. Lenzkes felt a void as many patients with chronic conditions became sick and required more medications. At the same time, Dr. Lenzkes battled his own weight gain while following 'standard medical advice.' In this episode, Dr. Lenzkes first reveals how he learned about a fasting and low-carb lifestyle. After trying it himself, Dr. Lenzkes lost the weight he gained while following 'standard medical advice.' Dr. Lenzkes dives deep into the correlation between high insulin levels and cardiovascular disease. If you haven't already, now is the time to check your insulin levels. Tune in as we chat about reversing type 2 diabetes, the importance of muscle mass, and the massive problem with chronic stress.

[01:10] Learning About Fasting and Low-Carb In The Medical Community Throwing drugs at people with diabetes, hypertension, and obesity doesn’t do anything. One patient found fasting successful, and Dr. Lenzkes decided to research the lifestyle. After losing weight with fasting and low-carb, Dr. Lenzkes was hesitant to share this new information with his patients. Dr. Lenzkes got a lot of backlash from his colleagues. However, Dr. Lenzkes gets patients off insulin; not many people can say that. [13:30] The Correlation Between High Insulin Levels and Cardiovascular Disease There's a massive correlation between high insulin levels and cardiovascular disease. Nearly 100% of Dr. Lenzkes’s patients have never had an insulin check until seeing him. You don’t just wake up with type two diabetes; you have ten years to predict that diabetes is coming before you get it. Lower your insulin levels; that way, you won’t need as much insulin to get the desired effect. Dr. Lenzkes highly recommends checking out Dr. Jason Fung’s work. Find it here: https://www.thefastingmethod.com/. [19:40] How Exercise and Movement Will Help Prevent Type 2 Diabetes Most diabetics, if you look at their lab work untreated, they're going to have high triglycerides in that 300 to 500 range. LDL can be increased or low; it doesn't matter. HDL will be low. When you get HDL right and the triglycerides come down, you feel a lot better. Exercise and stress management is essential because it helps burn sugar and your fat reserves. When you run out of reserves, you have diabetes because the sugar stays in your bloodstream. [31:50] The Reason Doctors Don’t Talk About Diet and Lifestyle During A Visit Dr. Lenzkes uses a company called Ulta Lab Tests: https://www.ultalabtests.com/. Patients can order Ulta, or your doctor can get it for less. Doctors have been trained a certain way, so they may not want to test for insulin. Plus, doctors are pressed for time and are judged based on how many patients they see each day. Many doctors only see a patient for nine minutes. It is impossible to talk about diet and lifestyle during these visits. [36:10] Many Doctors Don’t See The Truth; Instead, They Stick With What They Learned In Medical Schools Doctors are taught that you need three meals daily, and breakfast is the day's most important meal. However, that’s simply not the case. Doctors stick with what they learn no matter what evidence says otherwise. Many doctors will see high blood pressure and tell people to cut salt. Well, salt is high because insulin is high. High insulin causes you to retain sodium in your kidney. The answer should be to lower insulin instead. [42:50] Lower Your Insulin Through Sleep, Exercise, and Stress Management What’s more important to lower insulin, sleep or exercise? If you prioritize something, it’s sleep. Next, don’t be stressed out and angry. Then, eat real food that isn’t processed to lower insulin. Regular exercise will also help lower insulin. The more muscle mass you have, the more insulin sensitive you are. Putting muscle mass on is never going to be the wrong answer. The more muscle mass you have, the longer you live. The lower your insulin levels are, the longer you live. [57:30] Chronic Stress Could Be Causing Your Metabolical Sickness Fatty liver disease means you are metabolically sick. When you are metabolically sick, you risk dying from all different types of diseases. The biggest scare we have is high insulin. When you’re under chronic stress, it’s not good. Think about ways to get your priorities straight through sleep and stress management. AND MUCH MORE!
