The conventional story of type 2 diabetes—lifelong, progressive, and medication-dependent—misses the deeper biology driving the disease. In this episode of The Health Pulse, we unpack selective insulin resistance across the liver, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle, and explain how restoring insulin sensitivity systemwide can lead to true remission, not just better numbers. We explore the liver’s paradoxical behavior—continuing to produce glucose while aggressively storing fat—and how fatty ...

The Lipid Energy Model: Making Sense of Sky-High LDL on Low-Carb Diets | Episode 92
Picture this: you’re lean, active, insulin-sensitive, and thriving on a low-carb lifestyle—yet your LDL cholesterol shoots past 200. Is this a sign of dysfunction, or simply a reflection of how your body fuels itself? In this episode of The Health Pulse, we unpack the Lipid Energy Model (LEM), a framework that helps explain why some people—known as Lean Mass Hyper-Responders (LMHRs)—see dramatic LDL increases alongside very high HDL and very low triglycerides. Using clear analogies, we break ...
