Mindsip insights from this episode:
Adopt low-carb approach to combat insulin resistance from stress
A low-carb approach may be so beneficial in the West because our overstressed and underslept lifestyles make us more insulin resistant.
Recognize modern fruit's unnatural sweetness and low fiber
The fruit we eat today has been bred for millennia to be sweeter and have less fiber, much like humans bred wolves into chihuahuas.
Lower blood sugar with 10 minutes of calf raises after meals
Doing calf raises for just 10 minutes after a meal is highly effective because the soleus muscle is specifically excellent at soaking up glucose from the bloodstream.
Beware oat milk's glucose spike compared to almond and cow's milk
Oat milk, being essentially liquid starch, can create a massive glucose spike in the body, unlike almond or cow's milk.
Balance energy budget by managing exercise and inflammation
Your body operates on a constrained energy budget, so when you exercise more, it compensates by spending less energy on other tasks like inflammation.
Rethink exercise: activity doesn't increase daily calorie burn
Despite being far more active, hunter-gatherer populations like the Hadza burn the same number of total calories per day as sedentary Westerners.
Empower group medicine by letting peers answer questions
In group medicine, it's critical for the expert doctor not to answer questions, as letting peers answer builds trust in the collective.
Get morning light exposure to enhance nighttime sleep
Getting outside for natural light exposure in the morning is a life-changing tip for improving your ability to sleep at night.
Prioritize sleep to manage blood sugar effectively
Sleeping only four to five hours a night for just six nights can make you 40% less effective at managing your blood sugar.
