#17 | The truth about carbohydrates
from Alter Life Hosted by Dr. Benjamin Alter
In this episode, we dive deeper into healthy eating by tackling our first macronutrient - CARBOHYDRATES! The term, "CARBOHYDRATE" is thrown around recklessly in our world today. I've heard doctors compare a piece of fruit to a bag of skittles. We live in a world where low-carb dietary trends persist, and there is no sign of things quieting down. It's a bit longer than typical Alter Your Health LIVE episodes, but we covered a lot - from carbohydrate synthesis to metabolism, from fruit and fructose to potatoes and glucose. We talk about insulin and diabetes, and we talk about sugar cravings. There are some fuzzy spots, as Susanna and I were not together in this episode physically, but hopefully you are able to listen through!
