The Guardrails of Diet
from Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis · host William Davis, MD
Here are what I call "The Guardrails of Diet,' i.e.., metabolic markers that tell you whether your diet is genuinely healthy or not. Too many people put too much stock in either a single marker like blood glucose, or the wrong marker like LDL cholesterol that takes you down the path of health disruptions: weight gain, visceral fat expansion, protein glycation, insulin resistance, formation of VLDL particles, cause you to rely on unhealthy foods, even increased risk for heart disease and other conditions. In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, Let’s therefore discuss how to identify the markers that keep you on course for an ideal diet.
