286: How to Love Your Body

One of the best ways to love your body is to stop poisoning it with excess sugar, starch and carbohydrates. This sounds obvious, but it's actually a huge challenge. Excess sugar is everywhere and without careful study, most everyone walks around with chronically elevated blood sugar levels. In the short term, this affects your mood and waistline; in the long term, it reduces your healthspan and lifespan very dramatically.

  • Carbs vs net carbs – what's the difference?
  • Why there is no need to be scared of white sugar
  • How whole grains can actually be a problem
  • Why to focus on the fabulous four: fiber, fat, protein and greens
