    I never turn down an opportunity to listen to Dr Bikman. Ty for this offering.
  • @carriesilvinaespinozavilla5177
    I just adore Dr. Bikman! Incredibly knowledgeable and super precise. This man really understands the mechanical functions of the spectacular human physiology.
  • @tammyb8742
    I really enjoyed this conversation, especially about ketones. I never have gained so much knowledge about them.
  • @sarahg1077
    Whenever I come across a strong CICO, I point them towards Dr. Bikman. I adore how he teaches. He is so intelligent.
  • @DaveIrish66
    Lets have Ben do this study on Ketones! Please! Thank you for a great interview.
  • @nurseSean
    Thank you for this podcast. I am an EMT and am regularly called on to move people who are multiples of a healthy weight. 500 pounds is not out of the ordinary. I can’t “give medical advice “ but I want to be able to share some knowledge and promote the belief that something can be done. I think I will compile a list of podcasts with relevant information. I’m starting with this one. Your interviews seem to be getting better. You are not as entertaining as Peter Attia yet but you are getting closer. Слава Україні

    I love a new interview with Dr. Bikman, but I am really bothered by how the last part of the interview turned into an ad for the hosts exogenous ketones. It's a conflict that should be stated clearly.

    Does ketosis help with Atrial Fibrillation?
  • @JasonBuckman
    So a T1D has no insulin resistance if they don't take the insulin their body needs to stay at normal blood glucose levels)? If they took just enough to circumvent DKA, there's no insulin resistance because their insulin levels are low? Even if they needed boat loads to bring glucose down to normal levels?
  • @EncoreMama
    The reason obesity runs in families is due to diet and lifestyle that is passed down in families.
  • @cyndimanka
    Why are we discussing the law of thermodynamics in this conversation? That’s for a closed system. We are an open system.
  • @ohrein
    If ketones is the preferable fuel for the brain, why then the body still keeps a stable level of glucose in the blood (through gluconeogenesis) in the absence of carbs in the diet?
