663: Introduction to Metabolomics with Oliver Fiehn

When you hear the word "metabolism," you might think of calories or basal metabolic rate—the energy your body needs to survive. But metabolism is much more than that. It's a complex network of processes influenced by your diet, lifestyle, sleep, exercise, and stress, impacting nearly every part of your physical and mental health. This week, we hear from an academic researcher whose groundbreaking work in metabolomics sheds light on the deeper science of metabolism and its far-reaching implications for health and wellness.

Listen and learn:

  • Why metabolism is about more than just calories
  • The hidden complexities of your digestive system and its impact on health
  • How artificial intelligence is transforming scientific research into metabolism
  • The exciting future of vaccines and their role in metabolic health
  • Why fears surrounding GMO foods are often based on myths, not facts
  • How metabolomics is paving the way for innovative health interventions
