HD of HormonesDemystified.com is back on the Boundless Health Podcast. Once again, this well trained and highly respected endocrinologist brings his entertaining, thoughtful and witty no-nonsense perspective to help us dissect some big topics. In this episode, we explore HD"s own personal journey with Time Restricted Feeding, and of course we tackle insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia and how that relates to low-carb diets possibly being the cure for IR and even diabetes. We delve into the brave new world we are in with an army of engineers and critical thinkers forcing us to reframe how we see certain paradigms in medicine, and how the new venture with Amazon, Berkshire and JP Morgan will change medicine as we know it. Lastly, we explore his latest blockbuster blog post on Why Smart People Make Stupid Decisions regarding their health care. You do not want to miss this episode!
