The fats we eat - do they really impact our metabolic health and risk of developing conditions like type 2 diabetes? Tune into this informative clip from The Know Thyself podcast as Andre Duqum asked me about this topic.

I offer an evidence-backed look at how the types of dietary fats we consume can influence factors like insulin resistance, liver fat accumulation, and overall metabolic function. The compelling insights cover everything from the role of "energy toxicity" in driving metabolic disease progression, to the surprising ways that fat distribution and one's "personal fat threshold" affect diabetes risk.

Perhaps most intriguing is the discussion around the potential reversibility of type 2 diabetes through strategic weight loss and reducing harmful ectopic fat buildup in organs like the liver and pancreas. We also distinguish the differing impacts of saturated versus unsaturated fats on insulin sensitivity and metabolic health markers.

Whether you're looking to optimise your own metabolic health, prevent chronic diseases, or simply stay up-to-date on the latest research revelations, this engaging clip is not to be missed. Tune in as I break down these complex scientific topics in an accessible, insightful manner.
