Fix Your Blood Sugar: The FASTEST Way to Burn Fat, Optimize Hormones & Reverse Disease | Benjamin Bikman : 1252

Welcome to the metabolism masterclass!

Dr. Ben Bikman (Ph.D Professor BYU), a powerhouse in metabolism science, joins Dave to expose the truth about insulin resistance—the silent epidemic fueling obesity, chronic disease, and low energy. Forget the outdated calorie-counting nonsense (it doesn’t work)—Dr. Bikman reveals how your hormones, not just your diet, control your metabolism and what you can do to reset it fast.

From debunking diet myths to uncovering why some people can eat 400 grams of carbs and never gain fat (hint: it’s not what you think), this episode unpacks the real science of fat storage, energy, and optimal health. Get ready for mind-blowing insights, metabolic hacks, and a new way to think about food, fasting, and longevity.


What You’ll Learn:

The #1 driver of insulin resistance—and why most doctors miss it

• Why eating more fat (yes, really) could be the key to reversing metabolic dysfunction

• How fasting, cold therapy, and red light impact your metabolism

• The truth about carbs, seed oils, and why some people can’t gain fat

• How to tell if insulin resistance is wrecking your energy & health
